     2. Certs that cover sub-subdomains of your main subdomain (ie. `*.yoursubdomain.duckdns.org`, set the `SUBDOMAINS` variable to `wildcard`)
 * `--cap-add=NET_ADMIN` is required for fail2ban to modify iptables
 * After setup, navigate to `https://example.com` to access the default homepage (http access through port 80 is disabled by default, you can enable it by editing the default site config at `/config/nginx/site-confs/default.conf`).
-* Certs are checked nightly and if expiration is within 30 days, renewal is attempted. If your cert is about to expire in less than 30 days, check the logs under `/config/log/letsencrypt` to see why the renewals have been failing. It is recommended to input your e-mail in docker parameters so you receive expiration notices from Let's Encrypt in those circumstances.
+* Certs are checked twice daily using ACME Renewal Information (ARI) to determine the optimal renewal window. If your cert is about to expire, check the logs under `/config/log/letsencrypt` to see why the renewals have been failing.
