Option A states "Never store personal data of European Union citizens outside the European Union." Although the international transfer of personal data outside the EU is subject to restrictions under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the law does not strictly prohibit the storage of EU citizens' data outside the region.
Rather than outright prohibiting the storage of data outside the EU, the GDPR states that when personal data is transferred outside the European Union to non-EU countries, appropriate safeguards must be implemented to ensure an adequate level of data protection. These safeguards may include standard contractual clauses, the use of approved certification instruments, or the assessment of the adequacy of the recipient country in terms of data protection.
