Fair Usage Policy
To ensure our customers enjoy optimal data usage on our network, we have a Fair Usage Policy. Our Fair
Usage Policy is that
if you exceed 5 gigabytes of data usage within a given billing cycle, we may slow your
speed so that all WIND customers can better share the network and enjoy quality access to the Internet.
If we elect to do so, we will slow your speeds from a maximum speed of 7.2 megabits per second to a
maximum speed of 512 kilobits per second for downloads and 128 kilobits per second for uploads. Given the
rate at which most of our customers consume data, you are unlikely to exceed 5 gigabytes of data usage for
any given month unless you use file sharing applications or download large files from the Internet. If we elect
to slow your speeds, we will do so only until the end of the applicable billing cycle. This should not affect
any applications that require less than 512 kilobits per second of download bandwidth or 128 kilobits per
second of upload (such as voice over IP or voice streaming applications), but could affect the performance of
applications that normally require greater bandwidth (e.g., peer-to-peer file sharing).
