The European Union Data Protection Directive regulates the transfer of personal data outside of the European Union. As Mapua Corp. is based in Germany, which is a member of the European Union, it must comply with this directive when transferring personal data to a country outside the European Union, such as Japan. This directive imposes strict requirements on the transfer of personal data to ensure its protection and prevent its misuse. Therefore, Mapua Corp. may be facing difficulties in transferring personal data from Germany to Japan due to the requirements of this directive.
