15. Fair Usage Policy
To ensure equitable service delivery and consistent performance for all users, Espresso Hosting enforces a Fair Usage Policy. While our services are designed to be flexible and scalable, they are not intended to support abusive or enterprise-level workloads without prior consultation.

- Throttling of allocated resources
- Temporary suspension of services
- Permanent termination of the account
Examples of prohibited activities under this policy include, but are not limited to: running crypto miners, file-sharing services that consume excessive bandwidth, or any automated process that places undue strain on shared resources.
We reserve the right to determine what constitutes a violation of this Fair Usage Policy. If you anticipate high resource needs, please contact us to discuss appropriate solutions.
