The Complete Security and Privacy Guide (2026) Separate account privacy, payment protection and product safety. Read [Temu’s privacy policy](https://www.temu.com/privacy-policy.html) for your country and limit permissions that shopping does not require. A browser avoids installing the app, but it still sends browsing and account data to the site. A policy page is not an independent security audit. Use the payment provider’s documented protections, check statements and dispute unfamiliar transactions through your bank or provider. [Apple describes Apple Pay tokenization](https://support.apple.com/en-us/101554); this is not proof that every wallet or PayPal payment uses identical technology, or a guarantee against fraud. For electrical, child-care or other safety-critical products, examine seller identity, model, documentation and recalls. A CE mark or positive review alone is not an independent test. We cannot certify a product category as safe merely because it is non-electrical. Search [EU Safety Gate](https://ec.europa.eu/safety-gate-alerts/screen/webReport) for recalls. This guide does not establish the absence of a data breach or malicious app behavior. *Reviewed 1 October 2026.*
