Tweaks for tone and style

Standardize on 'GB' instead of 'GiB'. Small wording changes.
Change the name of an example company to keep it from triggering
the acronym rule.

## Storage subscription
Projects have a free storage quota of 10 GB. To exceed this quota you must first [purchase one or
more storage subscription units](#purchase-more-storage). Each unit provides 10 GB of additional
storage per namespace. A storage subscription is renewed annually. For more details, see
[Usage Quotas](../../user/usage_quotas.md).
When the amount of purchased storage reaches zero, all projects over the free storage quota are
locked. Projects can only be unlocked by purchasing more storage subscription units.
### Purchase more storage
To purchase more storage for either a personal or group namespace:
1. Sign in to GitLab.com.
1. From either your personal homepage or the group's page, go to **Settings > Usage Quotas**.
1. For each locked project, total by how much its **Usage** exceeds the free quota and purchased
storage. You must purchase the storage increment that exceeds this total.
1. Click **Purchase more storage** and you are taken to the Customers Portal.
1. Click **Add new subscription**.
1. Scroll to **Purchase add-on subscriptions** and select **Buy storage subscription**.
1. In the **Subscription details** section select the name of the user or group from the dropdown.
1. Enter the desired quantity of storage packs.
1. In the **Billing information** section select the payment method from the dropdown.
1. Select the **Privacy Policy** and **Terms of Service** checkbox.
1. Select **Buy subscription**.
1. Sign out of the Customers Portal.
1. Switch back to the GitLab.com tab and refresh the page.
The **Purchased storage available** total is incremented by the amount purchased. All locked
projects are unlocked and their excess usage is deducted from the additional storage.
## Customers Portal
GitLab provides the [Customers Portal](../index.md#customers-portal) where you can
manage your subscriptions and your account details.
The GitLab [Customers Portal](../index.md#customers-portal) enables you to manage your subscriptions

# Storage usage quota
> - [Introduced](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/13294) in [GitLab Starter](https://about.gitlab.com/pricing/) 12.0.
> - Moved to GitLab Free.
A project's repository has a free storage quota of 10 GB. When a project's repository reaches
the quota it is locked. You cannot push changes to a locked project. To monitor the size of each
repository in a namespace, including a breakdown for each project, you can
[view storage usage](#view-storage-usage). To allow a project's repository to exceed the free quota
you must purchase additional storage. For more details, see [Excess storage usage](#excess-storage-usage).
## View storage usage
To help manage storage, a namespace's owner can view:
- Total storage used in the namespace
- Total storage used per project
- Breakdown of storage use per project, by storage type.
To view storage usage, from the namespace's page go to **Settings > Usage Quotas** and select the
**Storage** tab. The Usage Quotas statistics are updated every 90 minutes.
If your namespace shows `N/A` as the total storage usage, push a commit to any project in that
namespace to trigger a recalculation.
A stacked bar graph shows the proportional storage used for the namespace, including a total per
storage item. Click on each project's title to see a breakdown per storage item.
## Storage usage statistics **(BRONZE ONLY)**

CAUTION: **Warning:**
This feature might not be available to you. Check the **version history** note above for details.
The following storage usage statistics are available to an owner:
- Total namespace storage used: Total amount of storage used across projects in this namespace.
- Total excess storage used: Total amount of storage used that exceeds their allocated storage.
- Purchased storage available: Total storage that has been purchased but is not yet used.
## Excess storage usage
Excess storage usage is the amount that a project's repository exceeds the free storage quota. If no
purchased storage is available the project is locked. You cannot push changes to a locked project.
To unlock a project you must [purchase more storage](../subscriptions/gitlab_com/index.md#purchase-more-storage)
for the namespace. When the purchase is completed, locked projects are automatically unlocked. The
amount of purchased storage available must always be greater than zero.
The **Storage** tab of the **Usage Quotas** page warns you of the following:
- Purchased storage available is running low.
- Projects that are at risk of being locked if purchased storage available is zero.
- Projects that are locked because purchased storage available is zero. Locked projects are
marked with an information icon (**{information-o}**) beside their name.
### Excess storage example
The following example describes an excess storage scenario for namespace _Example Company_:
| Repository | Storage used | Excess storage | Quota | Status |
|------------|--------------|----------------|--------|-------------------|
| Red | 10 GB | 0 GB | 10 GB | Locked **{lock}** |
| Blue | 8 GB | 0 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| Green | 10 GB | 0 GB | 10 GB | Locked **{lock}** |
| Yellow | 2 GB | 0 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| **Totals** | **30 GB** | **0 GB** | - | - |
The Red and Green projects are locked because their repositories have reached the quota. In this
example, no additional storage has yet been purchased.
To unlock the Red and Green projects, 50 GB additional storage is purchased.
Assuming the Green and Red projects' repositories grow past the 10 GB quota, the purchased storage
available decreases. All projects remain unlocked because 40 GB purchased storage is available:
50 GB (purchased storage) - 10 GB (total excess storage used).
| Repository | Storage used | Excess storage | Quota | Status |
|------------|--------------|----------------|---------|-------------------|
| Red | 15 GB | 5 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| Blue | 14 GB | 4 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| Green | 11 GB | 1 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| Yellow | 5 GB | 0 GB | 10 GB | Not locked |
| **Totals** | **45 GB** | **10 GB** | - | - |
