+### 402 service restriction
+
+In case the Fair Use Policy is applied, the projects of your organization may be restricted from processing requests. If service restrictions are applied, projects will return a 402 status code together with a description of why the project is restricted. The description can contain one or more of the following codes:
+
+- `exceeded_*` indicates that the project has continued to exceeded the usage limits of its quota, e.g. `exceed_egress_quota`, `exceed_db_size_quota`.
+- `overdue_payment` indicates that the organization has overdue bills.
+
+You will still have access to your data through the Supabase dashboard when the Fair Use Policy is applied.
+
+See the [Fair Use Policy](/docs/guides/platform/billing-faq#fair-use-policy) section to learn more about the restrictions and how to remove them.
+
 ## 5XX server or project errors
 
 5XX status codes indicate that the project was unable to process the request successfully, but not because of an issue with the client's request.
