Ha valaki olyan tartalmakat gyárt, amelyeket jogilag nem adhat el (pl. fanmade Start Wars rövidfilmeket Youtube-on), de Patreonon keresztül támogatják, akkor azt a pénzt legálisan elrakhatja?

Ha kiderül, hogy illegális tevékenységet folytatsz, a Patreon felfüggesztheti a fiókodat:

"User Conduct

Illetve:

"Authenticity and Copyright Infringement

Patreon is for creators who put something original out into the world. As a creator, you may not post content that infringes on others' intellectual property rights."

...

You cannot pretend or impersonate another creator, such as using someone else's name, brand, or content in order to raise funds. We will review satire and comedy in a different way as we believe these subgenres are original content."
