collection, storage, use, and disclosure of TikTok App users’ biometric information. 

The L.M. action alleges violations of BIPA on behalf of a class of minor Illinois 

residents based on defendants TikTok, Inc. and ByteDance, Inc.’s alleged unlawful 

collection, storage, use, and disclosure of TikTok App users’ biometric information.
