Bandwidth Usage: Wifi4india offers a generous amount of data transfer per month. Bandwidth is calculated on a recurring 30 days.

Excessive Resource Usage Policy: *Applies to virtual accounts. Resources are defined as bandwidth and/or processor utilization. A website is considered using "Excessive amounts of resources" when it monopolizes the resources available using 10% or more of system resources for longer than 30 seconds.

Wifi4india will be the sole and final arbiter as to what constitutes a violation of this policy.
Upstream AUP Violation: Accounts that house insecure scripts which result in an upstream AUP violation will be charged a one time fee of $20 for cleanup and reactivation. If your account causes a second upstream AUP violation as a result of the same script, your account will then be subject to termination at the discretion of Wifi4india.
