How TikTok uses your phone number

We may use your mobile phone number to:

• Help you log in to your TikTok account. If you forget your username, email, or the other login method you used to log into TikTok, you can look up all your login methods by entering the mobile phone number associated with your account on the account recovery screen. If you forget your password, you can also use your mobile phone number to reset your password.

• Strengthen your account security with two-step verification.

• Suggest your account to people you may know.

• Autofill your information when completing a form.

• Improve the ad experience for you and others. We may match your contact information with information we get from Advertising, Measurement, and Data Partners, such as when you make a purchase after seeing an ad on TikTok. This helps us show you personalized ads based on off-TikTok activity, depending on your settings, and improve our ad services for everyone within the TikTok community. Learn more about Ads and Your Data in the TikTok Safety Center.

Please note that:

• Your mobile phone number is not visible on your TikTok profile. You can change or remove your phone number at any time once you provide an alternative method of logging into your account. • You can manage how we suggest your account to others, sync contacts, and more in your Privacy settings. • We do not sell personal information, including your mobile phone number, to anyone.

How to set up 2-step verification

You can set up 2-step verification (2SV) using your phone number. We strongly recommend turning on 2SV to further protect your account. This common account security feature adds an extra layer of protection to help us verify it's you if you log in from an unrecognized device. 2SV also provides an added layer of security to your account in case your password is compromised. Many people only have one layer (a password) to protect their account, but with 2SV, if someone obtains your password, they'll still need access to your phone or email address when attempting to log in to your account.

To turn on 2-step verification:

1. Check that you have the latest version of TikTok downloaded.

2. Tap Profile at the bottom.

3. Tap the Menu button at the top.

4. Tap Settings and privacy.

5. Tap Security and login.

6. Tap 2-step verification and choose at least two verification methods. We recommend SMS* and email.

7. Tap Turn on to confirm.

Enter the code into the 2-step verification prompt on your screen to confirm your identity.
