What happens to the data submitted in the CPNP?
What happens to the data submitted in the CPNP? Data submitted in the CPNP is stored in a secure database that is accessible to EU member states' competent authorities for regulatory purposes. This information is used to monitor compliance, assess consumer safety, and facilitate communication between authorities. While the data is primarily intended for official use, some information may also be available to consumers to enhance transparency about cosmetic products on the market. The CPNP plays a crucial role in maintaining an organized system for tracking cosmetic product notifications and ensuring that brands adhere to regulations. Overall, the data helps uphold public health standards across the EU (European Commission, 2022).
