Circumstances in which we may withhold Creator Earnings

a. We may withhold all or any part of the Creator Earnings due to you but not yet paid out:

(i) if we think that you have or may have seriously or repeatedly breached any part of the Terms of Service;
(ii) if you attempt or threaten to breach any part of the Terms of Service in a way which we think has or could have serious consequences for us or another Subscriber; or
(iii) if we suspect that all or any part of the Creator Earnings result from unlawful or fraudulent activity, either by you or by the Subscriber who made the Payment resulting in the Creator Earnings.

b. for as long as is necessary to investigate the actual, threatened, or suspected breach by you or the suspected unlawful activity (as applicable). If following our investigation, we conclude that (i) you have seriously or repeatedly breached any part of the Terms of Service; (ii) you have attempted or threatened to breach any part of the Terms of Service in a way that has or could have serious consequences for us or another Subscriber, and/or (iii) the Creator Earnings result from unlawful or fraudulent activity, we may notify you that you have forfeited your Creator Earnings.
c. We may also withhold all or any part of the Creator Earnings due to you but not yet paid out if we receive notice that you have secured, encumbered, pledged, assigned, or otherwise allowed a lien to be placed on Creator Earnings. We undertake no duty to pay Creator Earnings to third-party lienholders and may withhold payment of Creator Earnings until the lien has been removed.
d. We shall not have any responsibility to you if we withhold or forfeit any of your Creator Earnings where we have a right to do so under these Creator Terms.
e. If we are withholding all or any part of the Creator Earnings due to you and we determine that part of the Creator Earnings withheld by us is unrelated to breaches by you of the Terms of Service or suspected unlawful or fraudulent activity, then we may arrange for you to be paid the part of the Creator Earnings which we determine to be unrelated to breaches by you of the Terms of Service or suspected unlawful or fraudulent activity. However, you agree that if we consider that your breach(es) of the Terms of Service has or may cause us loss, we may withhold all Creator Earnings due to you but not yet paid and we may set off such amounts against any losses suffered by us.
f. If once we have finished our investigation we determine that Creator Earnings are forfeited, we will (unless prohibited by law) use our best efforts to ensure that any Payments which resulted in forfeited Creator Earnings are returned to the relevant Subscriber who paid such Payments.
