Namecheap HOSTING and Cloudflare DNS

What is the name of the domain?

What is the issue you’re encountering

DNS

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I have hosting from the Namecheap website, but I put your (dns) in it and the download will be done from my website. Will the pressure be on the private hosting namecheap only or on you cloudflare?
Will there be a cost that will be paid to you, or as long as I am in the free plan, I will remain without paying?

What are the steps to reproduce the issue?

It depends on how busy your site is, how much of it you cache at Cloudflare, how often the origin needs to be called on from the Cloudflare PoPs, and so on.

As long as your site is typical website content and you are not delivering video or large files, which is against the CDN ToS and requires use of the Cloudflare Developer platform, you will be ok.

Thanks for the response and interest
Indeed, there will be pressure on the site and files will be downloaded from it at the same time by several users. I don’t know the number, but let’s assume that 100 GB of files are downloaded per month by users. Will the pressure be divided between Cloudflare and Namecheap?

My site is an educational site and there are no large files on it, but I have a simple question. You say that it is forbidden to put videos or download videos from my site, and this is a violation. Why?
Or did I understand the subject wrong? Does this mean that if I made my own educational videos and put them on the site and put a download button for them and a large number of users of the site downloaded these videos of mine that do not violate any policy or belong to a specific person, but rather they are videos of mine and the site and I own them, is this also a violation or what did you mean?
