From a legal perspective, it seems that Tiktok is mostly (but not completely) covered. They mention these activities in their privacy statement. The statement is not clear enough on what each individual activity is used for: they put a lot of activities under an umbrella reason such as "providing tech support" and "collection for analytics partners". It doesn't make their activities right, of course. But it's debatable whether legally speaking, they are in violation of privacy laws. I think they have a higher chance of violating EU privacy laws than US ones. GDPR is quite strict: you need to have a good reason for doing something, not merely mentioning that you'll do something. I think it's also interesting to know that Tiktok's servers are in Singapore.
