\u201cIf the EU does not take any position and no clear action, frankly, when its own humanitarian partners are forced to violate these laws, then the consequence is that we\u2019re eroding these laws,\u201d said Oxfam\u2019s Bosch.<\/p>\n
Aid workers note that the European Commission maintains a so-called \u201cadequacy decision\u201d with Israel \u2014 a seal of approval for Israel\u2019s privacy framework that shows the Commission views it as on par with the EU\u2019s GDPR.<\/p>\n
\u201cHow on earth does Israel fulfill the adequacy requirements, to say that it is a safe country for the EU to transfer data back and forth?\u201d said Fatafta of Access Now.<\/p>\n
Regarding the adequacy partnership with Israel, the Commission \u201cclosely monitors its application and has tools at its disposal to respond if the level of protection afforded to data transferred from the EU is weakened,\u201d the EU executive said.<\/p>\n
Anouar El Anouni, a spokesperson for the EU\u2019s External Action Service, said in an earlier statement mid February that \u201ca number of EU measures\u201d to stop the February requirements were still being considered.<\/p>\n
The EU has \u201cactively engaged\u201d with Israel on the issue, he said, and \u201cwill continue to monitor the situation, looking into how to facilitate the registration support, and further engage with Israeli authorities.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cIf the EU does not take any position and no clear action, frankly, when its own humanitarian partners…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":310687,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[2322,1153,4244,25880,64,50,42,46,47,5687,43,88768,2842,544,4439,8761,98,40,38,41,39],"class_list":{"0":"post-310686","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-headlines","8":"tag-advocacy","9":"tag-conflict","10":"tag-data","11":"tag-data-protection","12":"tag-denmark","13":"tag-gaza","14":"tag-headlines","15":"tag-israel","16":"tag-middle-east","17":"tag-missions","18":"tag-news","19":"tag-ngos","20":"tag-privacy","21":"tag-regulation","22":"tag-rights","23":"tag-safety","24":"tag-terrorism","25":"tag-top-news","26":"tag-top-stories","27":"tag-topnews","28":"tag-topstories"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310686","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=310686"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/310686\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/310687"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=310686"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=310686"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=310686"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
