Paris/London(CNN)The European Parliament on Tuesday banned TikTok from staff devices over cybersecurity concerns, meaning the Chinese video-sharing app is now barred in all three of the EU's main institutions.
"In view of cybersecurity concerns, in particular regarding data protection and collection of data by third parties, the European Parliament has decided, in alignment with other institutions, to suspend as from 20 March 2023, the use of the TikTok mobile application on corporate devices," it said in a statement.
The parliament also "strongly recommended" that its members and staff remove TikTok from their personal devices.
In 2020, India imposed a full ban on TikTok and dozens of other Chinese apps , citing data privacy and national security concerns.
