The report evaluates systemic risks in five categories: illegal content, consumer protection, protection of minors, fundamental rights, and civic discourse. Temu rates inherent risks as high for illegal content and medium-high for consumer protection and minors. Residual risks after mitigation are rated medium for those categories. The assessment highlights controls such as trader onboarding, content moderation, and age-gating. Temu plans to expand partnerships for product sampling and enhance transparency."
