One I tripped over.
Ensure that the data processor agreement includes issues such as 'dark
sites' (back up/disaster recovery/archive sites) which the data processor
operates, and requires the processor to consult the controller before any
move which affects the controllers data.
A data processor, for their own legitimate reasons, moved one dark site
across borders without a data controllers knowledge, (why do you need to
know?) and there was no trans-border data flow to the new country
registered. It all happended within the EEA - but it need not have.
