Push notification frequency is the max number of push notifications a subscriber can receive in one day. For instance, if you set a frequency cap of 10 that means no push subscriber on that site will ever receive more than 10 push notifications in a day from your site regardless of type (i.e. manual or triggered).
If you would like to set a notification frequency cap for your subscribers, go to 'Websites' then click 'Edit' next to your website.
Next, click on the 'Misc Settings':
