The extraterritorial application of European Union data protection law

Gascón Marcén, Ana (Universidad de Zaragoza)

Resumen: This paper will examine the extraterritorial application of European Union Law regarding the Internet in three particular cases that exemplify a current trend and make apparent the advantages and challenges of this approach. The examples relate to the protection of personal data and, in particular, the scope of the General Data Protection Regulation, the right to be forgotten and cross-border access to electronic evidence. The paper will end with some recommendations on how to avoid the problems that the extraterritorial application of the law in this field may entail.
