ByteDance Ltd.’s general counsel is no longer overseeing US government relations for TikTok, part of a shuffle to improve the company’s standing during intense national security scrutiny, according to people familiar with the matter.

TikTok has been in contact with US officials who oversee national security issues, trying to avoid the government banning the app in the US.
