What is APPI?
The Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI) is Japan's primary data protection law. Amended in 2020 and fully effective from 2022, it regulates the handling of personal information by businesses.
APPI applies to all businesses handling personal information in Japan, regardless of size. The law grants Japanese citizens rights over their personal data and imposes obligations on organizations that collect and process this information.
APPI Applies If:
- You handle personal information of Japanese residents
- You operate a business or provide services in Japan
- You transfer personal data from Japan
