Data stays with the company.
ESPR does not build one central database holding every passport. The data stays with the manufacturer or its service provider. What the Commission runs is a registry of identifiers and a portal that points to each passport.

What the Commission stores.
Article 13 asks the Commission to set up a registry. For each passport it stores at least the unique product identifier, the operator identifier and the facility identifiers, plus a few fields the delegated act names. Not the passport itself.
