Here is a current list of 7MHz world bandplans for comparison. It is
interesting to note the apparent common worldwide segment for 500Hz
bandwidth digital texting/data at 7035-7038kHz. It is defined for
digital/data/texting in all areas of the world. 

In Japan, this segment shares SSB activity, but DX digital is
specifically allowed. In USA, this segment shares with CW, but
digital/data is allowed.

The Digitalradio Group's international 7MHz frequency is 7034kHz USB,
which overlaps part of the 7035-7038 segment. 

Bandplan listings are attached below.
