Vercel updated a single sentence in their Terms of Service that governs penalties for violating Flat Rate CDN fair use guidelines. The change altered the capitalization of 'PAYGO rates' to 'PAYGO Rates' in the clause describing enforcement actions Vercel may take. This is a formatting and capitalization correction with no change to the substantive rights, obligations, or penalties described.
This change is a formatting correction only. The capitalization of 'PAYGO Rates' does not alter the substantive terms governing what happens if you violate Flat Rate CDN fair use guidelines. Vercel may still reduce performance, disable Flat Rate CDN and charge you PAYGO rates, or take other appropriate actions at the start of the next billing cycle, all in accordance with the Documentation.
Capitalization of 'PAYGO Rates' standardized; no change to enforcement authority or procedures.
