Explanation

Google Workspace's Data Regions feature allows administrators to specify where covered data at rest is stored. By applying a data region policy at the Organizational Unit (OU) level, you can ensure US employees' data stays in the US region and EU employees' data stays in the EU region. Option A ('No preference') defeats the purpose by allowing Google to store data anywhere. Options B and C relate to advanced processing features (like Gemini AI features) that may cross regions - these are secondary controls and not the primary data residency mechanism. Option D correctly leverages OU-scoped data region policies, which is precisely the tool designed for this compliance requirement.
