According to AFP, on July 10 local time, an Irish regulatory body that helps supervise data privacy in the EU stated it has launched an investigation into TikTok regarding the alleged transfer of personal data of European users to servers in China.
At a regular press conference held by the Chinese Foreign Ministry on July 11, Zhao Ning, spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry, responded to a question from foreign media reporters "What is your comment on this?" and said that specific issues should be directed to the relevant Chinese authorities. I can tell you that the Chinese government highly values and legally protects data privacy and security, and has never, nor will it ever, require enterprises or individuals to collect or store data in illegal ways. We hope that the European side will genuinely respect the principles of market economy and fair competition, and provide a fair, just, and non-discriminatory business environment for enterprises from all countries.
