I recall that GDPR has extraterritorial reach, so even though the examiner is in Mexico, they still need to comply with it for the German employee.

I feel a bit confused about this. I thought GDPR only applied to EU entities, but since the employee is in Germany, maybe it does apply?

I think I came across a similar question about data protection laws in my practice exams. If the employee is in Germany, the GDPR likely applies, right?

I remember studying GDPR and how it applies to data processing, but I'm not entirely sure if it covers non-EU countries like Mexico.
