The DPA opened the inquiry in September 2021. “The draft decision considers transfers by TikTok of the personal data of users of its platform from the EU/EEA to China and whether TikTok is complying with" the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), said the commission. “The draft decision also considers whether TikTok is complying with its transparency obligations to users insofar as such data transfers are concerned.”
The other supervisory authorities “have one month to send us their reasoned and relevant objections or comments,” said Deputy Commissioner Graham Doyle.
