the money that is available to be collected to You. It is then Your responsibility for You
to collect that payment. Upon
Your collection of the money in Your Account, Your Account will be reduced by
the amount that You have collected, which may take Your Account down to
zero. Alternatively, if You do
not collect payment within 90 days from the date of PayPal's dispatch of its
email to You, then We may automatically reset Your Account to zero without
further notice to You.11.3.3
Your
