Fair use policy — Best HTTP Proxy
An HTTP proxy plan sold with unlimited bandwidth is shaped by its fair use policy, so the policy belongs in any choice of HTTP proxy.
Meaning in this directory
In this directory, a fair use policy is the text that explains what unlimited means in practice. Many providers pair unlimited bandwidth with a speed cap, a connection limit or a limit on proxies created.
Some reserve the right to slow or suspend heavy use. The policy usually sits next to the acceptable use rules. Read both before you size a plan for a large job.
Connection to PinguProxy
PinguProxy plans have unlimited bandwidth under a fair use policy. A speed cap and a limit on how many proxies can be created depend on the plan. Enterprise has dedicated resources. Confirm the current limits for each plan on PinguProxy's official site.
The acceptable use rules prohibit fraud, hacking, data theft, spam, phishing, malware distribution, security bypasses and infringement of others' rights. Refunds apply only when the service fails because of PinguProxy's error, not for misuse or violations.
A verification question
Check one limit before you commit to a plan: the speed cap and proxy creation limit for the plan you want.
Find both on PinguProxy's official site and record them. Then estimate the concurrency and throughput your job needs. Run one test at the planned load and record the observed speed. If the job needs more, ask support about Enterprise or a Custom plan on request.
