TikTok: 'Zero truth' to US claim that China can access user data

TikTok’s head of public policy for Europe, Theo Bertram, said: “TikTok is not available in China. TikTok data is stored in the US.”

TikTok has insisted that China’s Communist Party does not have access to the personal information of its users.

US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has previously claimed that people should only use the social media app if they are happy for their data to be accessed by the Chinese state.
