The DPC is examining whether this data processing complies with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), focusing on the lawfulness and transparency of the practice. As X's European headquarters are located in Dublin, the Irish regulator serves as its lead authority within the EU and has the power to impose fines of up to 4% of a company's global revenue for significant violations.
