Reasonable Usage Policy 

 

Network Performance 

VETtrak hosting accounts and associated services operate on shared resources. Excessive use or abuse of these shared network resources by one customer may have a negative impact on all other customers. Misuse of network resources in a manner which impairs network performance is prohibited by this policy and may result in suspension and/or termination of your account. 

You are prohibited from excessive consumption of resources, including CPU time, memory, disk space and session time. You may not use resource-intensive programs which negatively impact other customers or the performances of VETtrak systems or networks. VETtrak reserves the right to terminate or limit such activities.
