General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) has been one of the
most important regulations for the companies in Europe and also
some of the companies in other countries. However, Europe is not
the only jurisdiction with a privacy regulation. Various other
countries like Turkey, Japan, South Korea, and Australia have
privacy laws. A company located in Europe has to take into account
the provisions of both the GDPR and the privacy regulations of
other countries where it does business. For example, when there is
a data breach, the European company may need to notify both the
supervisory authority in Europe and the supervisory authority in
the other countries if it processes personal data of the residents
of those other countries.
