The Irish data protection will monitor closely the situation at Twitter after the social media company said it would continue to make decisions on the processing of personal data for EU users from their Irish office.

The Data Protection Commissioner, the lead regulator for some of the biggest tech giants operating in Europe, met representatives from Twitter on Monday afternoon after raising concerns about the company’s obligations under EU rules.

The Irish watchdog had requested a meeting with Twitter late last week to establish whether the social media platform would continue to make decisions in terms of the processing of personal data for EU users from their Irish office.
