I am not a lawyer, here my 2 cents:

Usage policy won't shield you since it's your server facilitating the download and distribution (allowing the user to download) part. Unlike a tool like youtube-dl which is self hosted and the responsibility falls on the user.

I have a question. Isn't it that youtube-dl offer same features? They let user download watermark free content from tiktok? Im selfhosting the backend too

It's a community led open source project, not a hosted service.
