restaurant owners are keeping all electronic tips

i am in tennessee. according to the flsa “an employer cannot keep employees’ tips under any circumstances; managers and supervisors also may not keep tips received by employees, including through tip pools”. does this only apply to employees making below $7.25? i make $11 right now. we were able to see on our payroll that whoever is logged into the register makes the electronic tips, but we aren’t sure yet if the owners take these tips on payday (they specifically told me when i was hired that they keep the electronic tips). we’re assuming that they take the tips on payday because people who have been here longer than me do not have the tips on their past payrolls.
