Generally, other than those described above, we do not place limitations on your account. However we reserve their right to adjust services and/or fees if usage significancy exceeds the acceptable use on our systems or begins to impact the usage of the system for other users. While we strive to only adjust in rare cases, we must ensure fair access to the system for all clients. If we elect to limit a user’s access to any feature, whenever possible the client will be provided with an upgrade option to gain additional usage in that area.
