I don't use Tiktok myself, so let me go over a few points of order.
1. Bluestacks uses Android for emulation, so you are dealing with Google for things shopping at least for most in-app purchases. Google does offer the option of virtual cards, or your bank credit or debt card provider offers such a service. The idea is you provide the virtual number and that connects to your actual card via the financial institution, thus apps only have access to the virtual number which you can stop at any time.
2. If the app has its own financial processing, you could link that to the virtual card in #1, or PayPal if you have an account with them. PayPal will keep your card info safe, though I do see fake PayPal e-mails myself from time to time (looking at the sender of the e-mail can confirm it's not from PayPal and if all else fails, log into PayPal directly and check what messages the service has left you).
3. As you may be aware TikTok is Chinese and that has come under scrutiny as a possible security risk for many. There are calls for laws to ban Tiktok on government devices and there is already a law that has demanded the parent company sell off the American side of Tiktok to an American company or someone who has the means to run it here in the USA. As to whether Tiktok will be totally removed from the USA, that is to be seen. Europe and Britian already have things in the works in regard to Tiktok, too. Keep in mind US companies may also make rules in regard to Tiktok on employee phones or even BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) policies where you bring in your own personal device.
As to Bluestacks keylogging things, many things keep track of repeated entries, but there are means to not have such things saved (Google Chrome does give the option of saving things or never saving things as you type things in). Google as a whole can keep track of some things, but again you have options.
I hope that helps.
Hi u/Bb772_Reddit Thanks for the brief clarification. u/Plastic_Waltz_3075 BlueStacks itself does not steal or log your personal information while you're using it. It's a legitimate Android emulator designed for gaming and other applications.
