The trigger includes potential breach ('may be'), meaning TikTok Ads can act before a breach is confirmed, and the range of actions spans temporary restriction to full termination.

Interpretive note: The excerpt covers only sub-clause (a). Additional grounds for suspension or termination likely exist in sub-clauses (b) onward, which are not visible in the provided excerpt.
