How will the USA recover its economy, overcome social and political polarisation and regain trust at global level? How will Transatlantic relations be rebuilt?

Privacy in the EU and US

Study
This research examines how aspects of privacy and data protection are working for consumers in two major economic areas – the EU and the US. Both have high levels of digital use, and major online providers offer very similar services in both regions. However, their legal approach to data protection and privacy are very different: while the EU has a general data protection law, the US to-date has not enacted such an all-encompassing law at the federal level.dig
