Rate Limits
Rate limits have been implemented to protect our service from issues that may arise when a single user generates too much traffic. A standard rate limit of 5000 requests over a 5 minute period is applied to all SendSafely user accounts. When the rate limit is exceeded, our servers will return an HTTP status code of "403 Forbidden".
Once the rate limit is triggered, you will continue to receive a "403 Forbidden" response until the number of requests drops below the 5 minute threshold. If the rate limit is exceeded for an extended period of time, an automated account lock may be placed on your account.
