GDPR
Ⅰ. Regulatory Background and Core Purpose
GDPR is a data protection regulation applicable across the European Union, designed to govern how personal data is handled and to enhance transparency in data processing activities.
Its primary focus commonly includes:
- Awareness and control individuals have over their own personal data
- Defined responsibilities among parties involved in data processing
- Compliance requirements during data collection, use, and storage
- Consistency of data protection standards across EU member states
The applicability of GDPR is not determined solely by website location, but also by the location of data subjects and the nature of data processing activities.
Ⅱ. Scope of Application
Where relevant conditions are met, GDPR may apply to the following situations:
- Processing of personal data relating to individuals located in the EU or the United Kingdom
- Offering goods or services to users based in these regions
- Handling data through websites, online forms, communication tools, or Cookie-based technologies
Data processing carried out purely for personal or household purposes generally falls outside the scope of GDPR.
Ⅲ. Core Principles of Personal Data Processing
Within the GDPR framework, personal data processing is typically guided by a set of widely recognised principles.
These commonly include:
- Processing based on a lawful basis and explained in a clear manner
- Use of data for specific and legitimate purposes only
- Data collection limited to what is relevant for the intended purpose
- Maintenance of reasonable accuracy, with updates where necessary
- Retention periods aligned with processing objectives
- Use of technical and organisational measures to reduce unauthorised access risks
Ⅳ. Rights of Data Subjects
Where GDPR applies, data subjects may be entitled to exercise certain statutory rights, including:
- Confirming whether personal data relating to them is being processed
- Requesting correction of inaccurate or incomplete data
- Requesting deletion under applicable legal conditions
- Restricting specific processing activities in defined circumstances
- Receiving data in a structured and readable format
- Objecting to processing based on particular grounds
Practical guidance on exercising these rights can be found in Privacy Policy.
Ⅴ. Responsibilities in Data Processing
In activities involving personal data, associated responsibilities generally include:
- Processing data in line with defined purposes and lawful bases
- Applying appropriate technical and organisational safeguards
- Responding to data-related requests within a reasonable timeframe
- Assessing and managing data security incidents
- Conducting risk evaluations where necessary
Ⅵ. Cross-Border Data Transfers
When personal data is stored or processed across borders, GDPR requires appropriate safeguards to be in place.
Common approaches may involve:
- Use of recognised contractual protection mechanisms
- Assessment of the recipient’s data protection environment
- Application of encryption, access controls, or similar technical measures
These arrangements are typically applied in conjunction with Privacy Policy.
Ⅶ. Regulatory Oversight and Compliance Impact
GDPR enforcement is overseen by relevant data protection authorities within applicable jurisdictions.
In cases of non-compliance, actions may include compliance reviews, processing adjustments, or administrative measures.
Outcomes depend on the nature of the issue, its impact, and the applicable legal context.
Ⅷ. Role of GDPR in Cross-Border E-commerce
Within cross-border e-commerce environments, GDPR serves as a unified reference framework for personal data protection and supports:
- Greater transparency in data handling practices
- Reduced compliance risk across jurisdictions
- Clearer data governance structures
- Alignment with compliance expectations of search engines and advertising platforms
