</h1>
<p>This document explains the account locking feature from a technical perspective. Account locking happens when users have outgrown their accounts, and despite e-mail and dashboard alerts, don't upgrade after a grace period.</p><h2 id="usage-alert-and-grace-period" class="section-heading">
<a href="#usage-alert-and-grace-period">

Usage alert and grace period
</a>
</h2>
<p>The <a href="Plausible.Workers.CheckUsage.html"><code class="inline">Plausible.Workers.CheckUsage</code></a> daily background job alerts users they have reached their subscription limits. This runs for outgrown users one day after their last billing date.</p><p>When users reach the number of sites limit, or use &gt;110% of their pageview limit for 2 consecutive billing cycles, the background job sends them an e-mail alert. The e-mail suggests a suitable subscription plan based on usage. For enterprise users, only an internal e-mail is sent to <code class="inline">enterprise@plausible.io</code>.</p><p>The user is given 7 days to upgrade their account after the alert, and this is called grace period. The background starts this grace period by adding a <code class="inline">users.grace_period</code> JSON to the user record:</p><pre><code class="json">// SELECT grace_period FROM users LIMIT 1
{
&quot;id&quot;: &quot;1aa855bd-022d-4dfc-b572-6853442c3f19&quot;,
&quot;is_over&quot;: true,
&quot;end_date&quot;: &quot;2022-03-09&quot;,
&quot;allowance_required&quot;: 100,
&quot;manual_lock&quot;: false
}</code></pre><p>During this period, the following alert pops up on the dashboard for both standard and enterprise users:</p><p><img src="https://files.gitbook.com/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN4GLWMwCrTuTcf31kYE9%2Fuploads%2FmsLk4CdSHKzU8TbfvaPq%2FPasted%20image%2020220909120933.png?alt=media&token=76f247a1-28cf-4d88-a0fa-06547268aee9" alt=""/></p><p>If the user upgrades to a suitable plan, the grace period is removed (check <a href="Plausible.Billing.html#subscription_updated/1"><code class="inline">Plausible.Billing.subscription_updated/1</code></a>), otherwise <a href="#Account locking">Account locking</a>) follows. For enterprise users, the grace period has a manual lock flag set to true, meaning enterprise accounts can only be locked/unlocked through the internal CRM.</p><h2 id="account-locking" class="section-heading">

</h2>
<p>The grace period is checked daily by the <a href="Plausible.Workers.LockSites.html"><code class="inline">Plausible.Workers.LockSites</code></a> background job.</p><p>For users that expired their grace period, <code class="inline">sites.locked</code> is is set to <code class="inline">true</code>, restricting access to dashboards. This does not stop event ingestion, so users can have their stats up to date when they finally upgrade.</p><p><img src="https://files.gitbook.com/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FN4GLWMwCrTuTcf31kYE9%2Fuploads%2FAplurtG7UsGXMskZOlUO%2FPasted%20image%2020220909122622.png?alt=media&token=5c8156d7-d4a7-4c99-8bac-2f1e9b7d4cae" alt=""/></p>
