In Windows 11 I see under Settings>Privacy and security>Location that the Bat! as a desktop app has access to my location. I can revoke the permission but then that happens for all desktop apps (Windows 11 problem).

For TB I would bet my right arm it's safe to leave it on. It's not like TB is going to serve you ads or anything.
