South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley has joined 20 other Attorneys General in pressing the online retailer Temu for answers regarding its business practices and potential ties to the Chinese Communist Party (CCP).
The group’s concerns focus on the site’s data collection and sharing practices, possible use of forced labor, and compliance with the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA).
In a letter addressed to the president of Temu and the CEO of its parent company, PPD Holdings Inc., the Attorneys General this past week asked for a response within 30 days. Questions sent revolve around whether Temu or PPD Holdings collects and sells U.S. consumer data and whether former CCP members on the executive team have access to that data. The group also wants to know if Temu can guarantee that the products on its platform are not produced through forced labor.
