Chinese video-sharing app TikTok quietly changed its privacy policy for American users earlier this month, allowing its app to collect users' faceprints, voiceprints and biometric data. The June 2 update, first reported by the technology site TechCrunch, is under the section "information we collect automatically," allowing the company to collect users' data without directly notifying them, reported The National Interest.
