OnlineCourseHost.com Fair Usage Policy
What is the principle of fair usage in online platforms?
Like all online platforms, including every course platform or video hosting platform, OCH operates under the principle of fair usage. So what is fair usage and how does it work?
The principle of fair usage is designed to prevent excessive or abusive use of resources, ensuring all users can have a consistent and reliable experience.
What does this mean for OCH?
As stated in our platform terms & conditions (Miscellaneous section), in general we do not limit or impose additional charges for data storage or (for example the data stored in your courses, products, text, files, video, audio, and other multimedia content you create), or bandwidth consumption (ex: the data used in order to deliver your files, site pages, and videos ).
This policy is however subject to fair use: if your aggregate storage usage or bandwidth usage is clearly higher than 99% of the users of our platform, we may in principle and at our discretion:
- require you to upgrade to a different plan
- charge fees for excessive usage
- prevent further uploads of content
- prevent or throttle further video bandwidth consumption
- in extreme cases, this could lead to termination of your account(s) upon advance written notice, but we assure you that it has never come to that.
Compliance and Obligations
- Prohibited Actions: Creators must refrain from activities that intentionally bypass storage or bandwidth limitations, such as for example: distributing excessively large files not relevant to course content, or using the platform as a personal storage drive for their personal digital media collection, etc.
- Review and Action: In cases of repeated non-compliance, OnlineCourseHost.com may conduct a review of the creator's account, which could result in adjustments to storage or bandwidth access, including potential restrictions.
