- Ireland's powerful Data Protection Commission has opened a new inquiry into TikTok over the storage of European users' data on servers in China, the regulator said on Thursday.

TikTok, owned by China's ByteDance, was in May fined 530 million euros ($620 million) by the Irish commissioner over the transfer of European user data to China.

The new inquiry, by TikTok's lead regulator in the EU as it is registered in Ireland for its HQ in the bloc, will look specifically at the storage of data.
