Had the same issue with a DB Hook. If it’s that cheap plastic piece above and below your chain ring, don’t bother with their chain guides, get a proper narrow wide chain ring and if you really want to, there’s this guide on amazon.

Raceface makes a relatively cheap, well made narrow-wide chain ring.

i've got a franken-gravel bike that's like this - i took the big chainring off and put the small one on the outermost side of the crank (where the big one was) to help keep the chain line straight.
if you can manage to find a 'narrow-wide' chain ring - it's a solid investment, helps to keep the chain on.
I don't have a front der, so I used this (https://www.amazon.com/Origin8-Torqlite-UL-Chain-Guide/dp/B008ZTLV9W/ref=pd_rhf_ee_s_rp_c_0_9?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B008ZTLV9W&pd_rd_r=2b612691-9413-4481-b9a3-7bdbcd0d8d19&pd_rd_w=Gk3jV&pd_rd_wg=9HtN6&pf_rd_p=87f46b45-938f-430f-a8e4-ecf1b1b39902&pf_rd_r=4H18PQ2X8TQ7MSQ0KK85&psc=1&refRID=4H18PQ2X8TQ7MSQ0KK85) in conjunction with the narrow-wide ring to keep the chain from bouncing off
it's a great idea - consider a mountain bike cassette and a small chainring to help you with the climbs. The big thing I have to deal with is not shifting under load, when the chain comes off - it's off. Without the front der. there's nothing to help you get the chain back on the ring without stopping and doing it with your hands
Wait...I think I used the wrong term. The chainguard you refer to, I'm thinking, is the plastic disc, about the size of the chainwheel.
I meant to say a chain guide. Like this. As far as I know the BBS02 comes with a chainring chainguard but does not come with a chain guide.
Oh hey, I was in the same boat. I swapped over to 1x from 3x at the front and my chain would fall off the front ring in rough sections. I tossed one of these on the front https://www.amazon.com/Origin8-Torqlite-Chain-Guide-31-8-34-9mm/dp/B008ZTLV9W?ref_=fsclp_pl_dp_2 , and once I got it set up super close to the chagrining it did its job. No more issues with the chain popping off, and cheaper than a new derailer with a clutch.
This might work. It’s not a chain guard, but will keep the chain on.
