Network Usage
Where an AT&T Service account, service or feature description specifies limits on bandwidth, disk utilization, simulta-
neous connections, and/or aggregate data download or upload, use in excess of those limits is not permitted without
an appropriate change in account type or status and may incur additional charges for such usage.
Bandwidth, disk utilization, simultaneous connections, and aggregate data downloads/uploads will be computed or
determined by AT&T from time to time in developing its product and service oerings. In the event AT&T determines
that an account is exceeding the relevant bandwidth, disk utilization, aggregate data download/upload limits, simulta-
neous connections, or reasonable session times, the account owner will generally be notified by E-mail. If the excess
use continues after such notification, the owner may be requested to upgrade the type of account or to modify the
activity creating the excess use, or the account may be terminated.
If excessive bandwidth, disk space utilization, simultaneous connections, aggregate data download or upload, or ses-
sion length is determined to adversely aect AT&T’s ability to provide service, immediate action may be taken. The
account owner may be notified by e-mail as soon as practical thereafter.
