Outlines

(up to 5 points)

-From a taxonomy perspective, privacy is (conceived as) a

fundamental right, while Data Protection is instrumental to

protection of Fundamental rights.

-The General Data Protection Regulation 679/2016 enforces

Art 7 of the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights.

-GDPR is enforceable if personal data are processed by an EU entity, abroad, if an Extra-EU entity processes personal data  within the EU and if  a controller is not established in the  Union, but in a place where Member State law applies by

virtue of public international law.

-The Free Trade Agreement will likely increase the volume of the business transactions between Japan and the EU.

-Therefore the number of the companies who will need to

 understand the EU laws will likely increase too.
