The liability for damages provided in the preceding paragraph shall be determined according to the loss suffered by the individual or the benefit obtained by the personal information processor as a result. Where it is difficult to determine the loss suffered by the individual or the benefit obtained by the personal information processor, the amount of damages shall be determined according to the actual circumstances.
