2 May 2025 TikTok Technology LimitedDPC: 530 million EUR against TikTok over data access from China IrelandInternational data transfers €530m

TikTok allowed employees in China to access European users' data remotely without assessing and demonstrating that standard contractual clauses and supplementary measures ensured an equivalent level of protection against access by Chinese authorities; it also informed users inadequately. Ireland's Data Protection Commission (DPC) imposed 530 million EUR and ordered that the transfers be brought into compliance or suspended within six months.

What organisations can take from it

Even mere remote access from a third country is a transfer – without a documented transfer impact assessment, fines and a suspension order loom.

How the radar is compiled

Official sources only

Every case is based on a decision, press release or database of an authority or a court. Press and law-firm reports count at most as additional references.

Four-eyes check

Whoever enters a case may not approve it. A second, independent check compares company, date, amount and area of law with the source. Only then is the case published.

Comparable amounts

Amounts are converted at the ECB reference rate on the day of the decision. Each case also shows the original amount.

Corrections on record

A correction is a new version that is checked again. Every change is logged. You can report errors directly on each case.

Case texts are translated from the German original. Where a translation is not yet available, the German text is shown and marked “(German original)”. Names of authorities, laws and companies are given as in the source (company names until they are anonymised).

Company names are anonymised two years after the decision in a case, in line with the practice of many supervisory authorities. The official sources remain linked.

The radar reports on published decisions and is not legal advice. Decisions that are not yet final are marked as such where the status is known.
