The Act on the Protection of Personal Information (the "APPI'') regulates personal related information and applies to any Personal Information Controller (the “PIC''), that is a person or entity providing personal related information for use in business in Japan. The APPI also applies to the foreign PICs which handle personal information of data subjects (“principals”) in Japan for the purpose of supplying goods or services to those persons.
The APPI was enacted in 2003, however, it has been subject to several revisions and amendments. Recent amendments to the APPI were enacted on 12th June 2020, which came into effect on April 1st 2022. The APPI aims to protect individuals' rights while considering the utility of personal information for the vibrant economic society. It also provides principals control over their personal data and outlines obligations that organizations and individuals dealing with personal data must comply with.
Personal Information Protection Commission (the "PPC"), established under the APPI, is the main regulatory body responsible for the enforcement of the APPI.
Securiti enables organizations to comply with the APPI regulations through AI-driven PI data discovery, DSR automation, documented accountability, enhanced visibility into data processing activities, and AI-driven process automation.

The APPI provides principals the right to request a PIC to disclose retained personal information which can identify them.
Under the APPI, principals have the right to make requests to ensure accuracy of their personal information.
There is no explicit right to erasure available under the APPI, however, when retained personal information of the principal is handled in violation of the provisions of Article 16 of the APPI, the principal can request the deletion of their personal related information.
Under the APPI, principals have a right to demand PICs to cease utilisation of the personal information that can identify them.
Under the APPI, pseudonymously processed information is not subject to the principal's right to access or cessation of use of personal information.
Latest amendments to the APPI stipulate that prior consent from principal is necessary for the transfer of personal related information to third parties.
General guidelines issued by the PPC relax the standards for security measures for a small or medium sized business operator (a PIC with 100 or less employees).
Recent amendments have made it mandatory for the PICs to report to the PPC and to notify a principal in case of a data breach.
The maximum penalty for breaching the APPI is either imprisonment up to one year or fine of up to 100,000,000 yen for legal entities.
