Most users visiting a policy or safety page would not expect their device's physical sensors and clipboard to be monitored; this collection goes significantly beyond what is necessary for displaying informational content.
TikTok's platform policy establishes broad content moderation authority that can result in content removal or account suspension with limited advance notice to users. The technical infrastructure embedded in TikTok's policy pages collects device sensor data, clipboard contents, geolocation signals, and battery information, which goes significantly beyond standard analytics and raises questions about the scope of data processing users have consented to. You can reduce TikTok's access to sensitive device data by going to your phone's Settings, selecting TikTok, and disabling permissions for Location, Microphone, and Clipboard access.
