Momcozy is a top choice for mothers when they purchase a breast pump, but a potential connection with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) has raised concerns about customers’ personal information being harvested by the Chinese.
Since Momcozy is a Chinese-based company, it could be required to share information with the group under China’s laws. U.S. Senator Bill Cassidy (R-LA) — who chairs the U.S. Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions (HELP) Committee — expressed his unease with Momcozy possibly sharing customers’ information with the CCP.
“We have already seen cases where foreign adversaries such as China have sought to exploit U.S. laws to acquire information that could be used against individuals and our national interests,” he explained in a letter sent to Momcozy on Wednesday that was obtained by The Daily Wire.
The HELP Committee, led by Cassidy, recently launched an investigation following the U.S. Department of Education’s report revealing that foreign entities aligned with the CCP were trying to “influence American universities.” He also has looked into numerous cybersecurity lapses that put private American data at risk.
The private information that is shared with Momcozy not only puts the parents at a potential risk, but their newborns as well, according to Cassidy.
“As we consider steps to protect families from having their information misused, we must pay particular attention to protecting the safety of our children,” Cassidy wrote.
The HELP Committee sent a letter to the chief executive officer of Momcozy, Athena Pan, Wednesday afternoon to better understand how Momcozy protects the privacy of these families.
In the letter, the HELP Committee addressed three specific protocols that Momcozy follows, requesting answers to numerous questions regarding how privacy is protected. The three protocols targeted are “detailed person information” that is collected, Momcozy’s headquarters in China, where the information is “transferred” and “processed,” and products connecting to Momcozy’s app via bluetooth or Wi-Fi.
The Senate committee also raised questions regarding Momcozy’s use of information, what personal information is actually being stored, and any sharing of information with the Chinese Communist Party.
“In the last five years, has Momcozy shared any information of individuals who reside in the United States with the Chinese Communist Party or the Chinese government?” the letter asks, adding, “What privacy and security protocols does Momcozy have in place to ensure this information is not improperly accessed?”
The HELP Committee requests answers to their questions by July 6, 2026.
Momcozy did not respond to The Daily Wire’s request to comment.
