Multiple tech, government and other private entities have sounded the alarm on TikTok for quite some time now.
It's a front for the CCP, and it is well known to be capturing all sorts of personal data as well as keystrokes and password/authentication data. Use it at your own risk!

[quote]TikTok app permissions include personal information and device control
First, our researchers examined the permissions TikTok requires on Android and iOS devices following installation. While some of the permissions detailed below are to be expected, all of this is consistent with TikTok’s written privacy policy. However, when you see all that TikTok gathers it can still be of concern. In summary, these permissions allow TikTok to:
Access the camera (and take pictures/video), the microphone (and record sound), the device’s WIFI connection, and the full contact list on the device
Determine if the internet is available and access it
Keep the device turned on and automatically start itself when the device restarts
Secure detailed information on the user’s location using GPS and other apps that are running
Read and write to the device’s storage, install/remove shortcuts, access the flashlight (turn it off and on), request additional installation packages
