Permitted uses

EnvHaven is designed for software development, experimentation, and learning. Acceptable uses include:

• Testing and CI/CD workflows
• Open source development

Resource allocation

Each managed workspace runs on its own dedicated virtual private server. You do not share resources with other EnvHaven users. Resources depend on your tier and region:

The lower end of each range applies to US regions; the higher end applies to EU regions. All tiers include 20 TB monthly network transfer in EU regions and 1 TB in US regions.

These resources are exclusively yours for the duration of your subscription. We do not throttle or limit your usage within these allocations.

If you exceed your monthly network transfer allowance, we may contact you to discuss options.

Reporting violations

If you believe someone is violating this policy, please report it to [email protected]. Include as much detail as possible.

Enforcement

When we identify violations:

• Minor violations: We'll contact you and give you a chance to correct the issue
• Serious violations: We may suspend your account immediately while we investigate
• Severe violations: Immediate termination without notice (e.g., CSAM, active attacks on other systems)

We review each case individually. For most violations, we prefer education and correction over punishment.

Appeals

If you believe we made an error in enforcing this policy, you can appeal by contacting [email protected] within 14 days. Include your account information and an explanation of why you believe the decision was incorrect.

Changes

We may update this policy as new situations arise. Significant changes will be communicated to users.
