Thank you, Mr. Chair. I'll be sharing some time with my colleague Ms. Damoff.
Mr. de Eyre, my first question is for you.
In his statements before Congress, the CEO of TikTok, Mr. Shou Chew said, “we do not collect precise GPS data at this point.”
However, according to TikTok's privacy statement:
Advertisers, measurement and other partners share information with us about you and the actions you have taken outside of the Platform, such as your activities on other websites and apps or in stores, including the products or services you purchased, online or in person. These partners also share information with us, such as mobile identifiers for advertising....
Can you inform the committee what the difference is between collecting precise GPS data and receiving “mobile identifiers” from third parties?
