I don’t know what the laws are there but the stake pool operator does not pay you your rewards.
the rewards do not first go to the stake pool operator and then to you. The stake pool operator does not, at any time, have access to your rewards or control any mechanism that the rewards go through. As you can see in your wallet when you receive rewards, they come directly to you, they do not pass through the pool operator first… hope that helps…
