Yes, you can process data to a third country that is not considered adequate under GDPR. Article 46 GDPR allows Parties to transfer data with a legal and binding agreement adopting the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) as implemented by the EU Commission.These SCCs are requirements that Parties agree to implement voluntarly in order to provide adequate safeguards to the transfer of data. It concerns the protection of data subjects' rights, the security of transfers, and the processing of data accordingly with the EU GDPR provisions.
