At c|seo we want to avoid imposing limits on the number of Website Reviews one can make in an account. We don’t charge based on the number of PDF Reports that a user downloads, and to date, instances of "unfair use" have been very rare, ensuring all users continue to enjoy the limitless qualities of our free plans.
What does this Fair Use Policy mean?
c|seo is a free Product and Service that helps thousands of users each day and we cannot allow the actions of a few users to negatively influence the system performance for the majority. Some types of activities are obviously violations, such as exploiting features. However, certain activities can cause review performance issues. These activities are difficult to summarize in a policy but are usually caused by a combination of items such as excessive downloading outside of what a normal person could do themselves, attempting to scrape the website, etc. As such, we retain the right to intervene in order to uphold the overall c|seo high-quality user experience.
When do we invoke the Fair Use Policy?
c|seo retains the right to limit or halt access to the Product and Service to any user imposing excessive load on the c|seo system in a way that will compromise the system performance for the majority. c|seo is designed with single user login in mind, excessive (beyond the norm of justified high usage) reporting may be met with a wait time message.
Such users who exhibit behaviours beyond the norm of justified high usage might be contacted by our team with a tailored enterprise proposal.
What happens when we invoke the Fair Use Policy?
c|seo wishes to keep its users satisfied, even those who are in violation of the Fair Use Policy, because we acknowledge that this might not be intentional. Excessive reporting may be met with a wait time message, evening out the load on the system for all users. In extenuating circumstances, if we invoke the Fair Use Policy by limiting or halting the Product andervice, we will get in touch with the impacted users to respectfully resolve the situation.
