Summary/Abstract: The survey deals with the cases of transfer of personal data to countries outside the European Union and the European Economic Area, where a decision of the European Commission has been issued that the third country in which personal data are to be transferred provides an adequate level of protection, or certain standard contractual clauses provide for such adequate level of protection (Art. 36a, Para 5 of the Personal Data Protection Act). In these hypotheses the national authority on personal data protection (the Commission for Personal Data Protection) does not make an assessment of the adequacy of the level of protection of personal data in the third country, but it exercises preliminary control according to a procedure, provided in the Regulations on the Work of the Commission for Personal Data Protection and Its Administration. The analysis of the current regulation of these exceptions and the practice of the Commission for Personal Data Protection aims to reveal some failings of the national legislation on personal data protection and to give proposals for their removal.
