Data Sharing in Corporate Transactions

Why it matters

A change in ownership could mean your data ends up with a different company operating under different privacy standards, and you may have limited ability to prevent this.

Consumer impact

TikTok collects an exceptionally broad range of personal data including biometric identifiers, precise location, clipboard content, purchase history, and inferred personal attributes, which are shared with advertisers, analytics partners, sellers, and third-party platforms. Minors receive additional protections, and sensitive personal information such as health, financial, and demographic data may be inadvertently disclosed through user content. You can opt out of personalized advertising and manage your data rights by visiting TikTok's Privacy and Settings menu in the app or at https://www.tiktok.com/legal/report/privacy.

Applicable agencies

  • Federal Trade Commission (ftc)
    Oversees unfair or deceptive business practices and can investigate companies that mislead consumers about data collection, sharing, or use.
    Who can file: Anyone affected by the company's practices (US or international)
    What you need: Your account details, a timeline of relevant events, and a description of the specific issue
    What to expect: Complaints inform FTC enforcement priorities and investigations but do not result in individual resolution or compensation
