Codes of conduct remain an underlit aspect of the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), which can be found in articles 40 and 41. Member States, supervisory authorities, the Board and the Commission shall encourage the drawing up of such codes ‘intended to contribute to the proper application of this Regulation’ (article 40(1) GDPR). In essence they shall ‘give operational meaning to the principles of data protection’, i.e. help to translate the abstract provisions of the GDPR into concrete obligations and procedures. The GDPR designs a system consisting of three types of codes, eachwith adifferent territorial reach. Article 40(5) and (6) describe ‘national codes of conduct’, which the European Data Protection Board (EDPB) hasmore clearly defined as ‘a codewhich covers processing activities contained in one Member State’. Article 40(7) sets out the possibility of a transnational code,which is ‘a codewhich covers processing activities in more than one Member State’. Finally, article 40(9) speaks of ‘codes having general validity’. Although this type of code is not further defined in the GDPR nor in guidance issued by the EDPB, it is implied that a code of this type can cover processing activities in all EU Member States – going one step further than transnational codes, which may apply in several but not necessarily all Member States. Intra-EU, this means that codes can not only specify the abstract principles of the GDPR for specific sectors, but that they can ‘help to bridge the harmonisation gaps that may exist between Member States in their application of data protection law’. However, codes have an important extra-EU function. The GDPR’s Chapter V sets out the rules for international data transfers, i.e. the transfer of personal data from the Union to recipients in third countries or to international organisations. These data flows have a dedicated chapter in the GDPR since the European legislator wants to safeguard that the level of protection of natural persons ensured in the EU is not undermined when the data leaves the EU’s territory. Chapter V of the GDPR is particularly notable because it constructs what Kuner describes as a threetiered structure. Adequacy decisions are placed at the top of the hierarchy, appropriate safeguards – including the use of codes of conduct – in the middle, and
