Annex one: Congestion policy and Promotional Service class
Excessive Utilization of Network Resources - Congestion Policy - Network Protection
Tooway will make its best efforts to allow the Subscription traffic is transmitted without congestion. However, satellite-based networks have capacity limits, and all customers can suffer from degraded or denied service when one user (or a small group of users) consumes a disproportionate amount of a network’s resources. Tooway, therefore, will monitor both overall network performance and individual resource consumption to determine if any user is consuming a disproportionate amount of available resources and creating the potential to disrupt or degrade the network or network usage by others. This process of monitoring both overall network performance and individual resource consumption is consistent with the description of the nature of the Service.
We reserve the right to engage in reasonable network management to protect the overall network, including analysing traffic patterns and preventing the distribution of viruses or other malicious code. During periods of congestion, Tooway uses various network management techniques, such as reducing the data rate of individual bandwidth intensive users whose use is negatively impacting other users. This temporarily limits the amount of bandwidth available to the bandwidth intensive Service Accounts until the congestion has diminished, at which point Tooway will endeavour to lift any limits it may have imposed on bandwidth intensive users during the period of congestion.
Tooway may also consider historical usage patterns when temporarily reducing the data rate of bandwidth intensive Service Accounts during periods of congestion. In these eventualities, the necessary traffic policy will be applied using best technical efforts in order to safeguard the integrity of the network.
Skylogic reserves the right to immediately restrict, suspend or terminate Service to an abuser without further notice in order to protect the network and minimize congestion abused by the excessive use. While the determination of what constitutes excessive use depends on the specific state of the network at any given time, excessive use is determined by resource consumption relative to that of a typical individual Subscription of the same Service Class and not by the use of any particular application.
Utilisation of Network Resources for Promotional Service Classes
If, as a consequence of any special offer expressly qualified as such by Tooway, the Client purchases Subscriptions of a Service Class that does impose higher limits on the amount of data the Service Account may download or upload during a month (or other applicable service period), the Client represents that he’s aware that such promotional plans are nevertheless subject to the provisions of this section. What this means is that all of the provisions described in this section, including those that describe how Tooway may perform reasonable network management such as reducing the data rate of bandwidth intensive users during periods of congestion, will apply to the use of the Service. In case of use of the term “unlimited” the term “unlimited” does not mean that Tooway will not take steps to reduce the data rate during periods of congestion or take other actions described in this section when a Service Account’s usage is negatively impacting the Internet experience of other subscribers to the Tooway Service.
Annex two: Volume Booster definition and associated fees
Volume Boosters will provide the possibility to Clients to occasionally assign to their Accounts a given amount of extra-volume traffic. Once assigned to a given Account, this extra volume of traffic will be made available on top of the traffic allowed by the Service Level currently associated to the Account.
1. A Volume Booster can be assigned to one single Account only (i.e. a specific Volume Booster cannot be assigned to more than one Account).
2. A given Account can be simultaneously associated to several Volume Boosters. Volume Boosters assigned to the same Account will be consumed from the least to the most recently assigned.
3. Each Volume Booster assigned to a given Account will allow that Account an extra amount of volume on top of the volume identified by the Monthly Quota. The volume Booster allows a return to the Service Level peak rate thanks to the account no longer being impacted by the Fair Usage Policy
Every 15 minutes the system verifies if the Account has exceeded the amount of traffic volume granted by the following two thresholds:
- 50% of the Consumption Profile and account impacted by The Congestion policy;
- 100% of the Consumption Profile;
if either of the two conditions above is true, then the Volume Booster is used, and its volume consumed; if this is not the case, the Volume Booster is not consumed and the Account uses the standard volume assigned to it.
4. Once assigned to an Account, a Volume Booster cannot be reassigned.
5. Where Change of Service Level for an Account is possible, assigned Boosters shall remain unchanged.
6. A Volume Booster can be used without time constraints as long as the Account is active. When an Account expires, all unused and partially used Boosters assigned to this Account will expire as well.
7. Consumption of Volume Booster is stopped during the night time for products featuring the unlimited night consumption feature.
8. Volume Boosters are chargeable in advance at £10 (plus VAT).
