If you manage to sneak it past the review and these content gets monetized on TikTok, you could face the following consequences:

Account Termination - TikTok will notify Random Sounds, and we will ban your account.

Withheld Royalties - TikTok may request Random Sounds to refund all royalties generated by your account, so we will freeze your balance and you will not be able to cash out.

Legal Consequences - Rightsholders could present legal charges because of Copyright infringement and Fraud. You are liable on the contents you distribute and monetize without authorization.
