  1. File Storage: only photos and documents (PDF, DOCX, etc…) uploaded by the Client are counted as storage space. A free but limited storage space is available to each Client according to its number of Users and the chosen Plan. The storage space used is counted as a sum of the storage space of all Users belonging to the same Client; it is not per User. In case of exceeding the free storage space, additional fees will be invoiced according to your Plan (see here and here). For example:
    • If a Client has 3 (three) Users and the chosen Plan gives each one of them 3 GB of free storage, the total free storage space for this Client is 9 GB.
    • In this case, the storage space will be invoiced only after the 9 GB are completely used.

In case of exceeding the free storage space, the system will not block any upload (within the limit of the servers’ space). If the storage space of the Client exceeds the capacity paid for by the Client, the Client will be required to purchase additional storage space. Additional storage space is invoiced for the whole current month cycle. These quotas are not divisible (only whole shares are acquired). Additional storage space is invoiced monthly or yearly depending on the Plan chosen. Refer to the Plan for the cost of additional storage space (see here and here).
  3. Photos Quality: the photos, after being inserted in the ITC Booking Software, will be converted into high quality (between 1280×800 and 1440×900 pixels and variable size from 50 to 300KB). The original photos will be automatically deleted. The Client may request photo storage in original resolution (for example, in very high resolution), however, this is an additional service. If the Service is activated, IT Consults will always keep a copy of the photos inserted in the ITC Booking Software by the Client.
  4. Other additional services such as SMS services may be delivered by IT Consults upon request. These services are not included in the Plans and are subject to a separate offer.
