TikTok's parent company, ByteDance is already under investigation by the Data Protection Commission in Ireland over whether it violated the EU's data protection law in the way it processed children's personal data

TikTok, whose parent company ByteDance is Chinese, has come under fierce Western scrutiny in recent months amid concerns over how much access Beijing has to user data.

"There cannot be any doubt that data of users in Europe are safe and not exposed to illegal access from third-country authorities," she added. "I insisted on the importance for TikTok to ensure full compliance with GDPR and cooperate with the DPC," Reynders said. The other, the Digital Markets Act , prohibits anti-competitive behaviour by the so-called"gatekeepers" of the internet.
