TikTok resisted the ban and went on record saying that it only stores US TikTok user data in US data centers and in Singapore.

In the grand scheme of things, TikTok still has a lot of data about its users, their content, and their devices, even without biometric data.

TikTok’s policy already states that it automatically collects information about users’ devices, including location data based on your SIM card, IP addresses and GPS, your use of TikTok itself and all content you create or upload, and data you send in messages on the app . Metadata from the content you upload, cookies, app, file names on your device, battery status, and even keystroke patterns and rhythms, among other things.
