Why information sharing matters The fight against financial crime depends on cooperation, and information sharing can help detect and prevent money laundering and terrorist financing. Art. 75 of the AML Regulation makes this possible, allowing companies and professionals covered by anti-money laundering rules to share information with each other and with public authorities, within clear limits. The new information sharing possibility will apply from 10 July 2027. To provide clarity on this possibility, the EDPB and AMLA will work together on the development of Joint Guidelines.   Clearer rules for industry and authorities Sharing information of this kind means processing personal data, which is why data protection safeguards are essential. The Joint Guidelines, developed by the EDPB and AMLA, will set out in practical terms how partnerships can be built so that effective information sharing and the protection of personal data go hand in hand. This will give everyone involved, from companies and supervisors to FIUs and data protection authorities, more clarity on how to set up successful partnerships. Share your perspective Input from industry and stakeholders will be essential to the success of this work. The EDPB and AMLA will hold an event later this year to gather early views on the elements that would benefit from clarification in the Joint Guidelines. In addition, the EDPB and AMLA are planning to launch a public consultation on the draft Guidelines in the first half of 2027. A joint drafting team with members from both the EDPB and AMLA will lead the work. Further details on the scope and content of the Guidelines will be shared as the work"},{"description":"Brussels, 27 April – Today marks the 10th anniversary of the GDPR’s adoption, the first comprehensive data protection framework spanning an entire continent, establishing clear rights for individuals and obligations for organisations across Europe. The moment that led to the creation of the EDPB The GDPR led to the establishment of the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) on 25 May 2018, replacing the Article 29 Working Party that was previously in charge of dealing with issues relating to the protection of personal data. The GDPR gave the Data Protection Authorities (DPAs) stronger enforcement powers and expanded the scope of their work from focusing mainly on national compliance complaints to routinely dealing with cross-border cases. In the past 10 years, the 31 European DPAs comprising the EDPB have worked together to ensure the consistent enforcement of the GDPR and a harmonised data protection approach across Europe.   A key role in an evolving digital landscape Today, the GDPR is part of a broader and evolving European digital framework, alongside other digital laws such as the Digital Services Act, the Digital Markets Act, and the AI Act . In a world shaped by artificial intelligence, platform economies, and increasing data-driven innovation, the GDPR ensures that technological progress goes hand in hand with the protection of individuals’ fundamental rights . An inspiration for the rest of the world The impact of the GDPR has extended far beyond Europe’s borders, inspiring similar frameworks across the globe and contributing to a growing international recognition of privacy as a fundamental right .   How the GDPR has shaped the data protection landscape: insights from Data Protection Authorities Have you ever wondered what the data protection landscape looked like before the GDPR and how DPAs prepared for its entry into force? How has life for Europeans changed since its adoption? Watch the video for insights and testimonies from Data Protection Authorities which contributed to the shaping of the data protection landscape in Europe.   Sorry, your browser doesn't support embedded","id":2850552,"source":"EDPB News","url":"https://www.edpb.europa.eu/news/news/2026/marking-10-years-gdpr-evolution-european-data-protection-landscape_en","titre":"Marking 10 years of the GDPR: the evolution of the European data protection landscape","pubDate":"Mon, 27 Apr 2026 14:14:32 +0200"},{"pubDate":"Wed, 03 Dec 2025 15:56:01 +0100","titre":"Support the EDPB’s work as an expert","url":"https://www.edpb.europa.eu/news/news/2025/support-edpbs-work-expert_en","id":2548823,"description":"Brussels, 28 November - The EDPB launched a call for expression of interest to establish a new reserve list for the Support Pool of Experts (SPE) programme .
