Note: The Company may attempt to contact Customer within the initial response time to clarify the issue and the business impact and will initiate the resolution process to detect the root cause and provide a solution or workaround that reduces the severity of the applicable problem. the Company will make reasonable commercial efforts to provide final resolution of Errors as soon as practicable, considering the severity of the Error, the details provided by Customer, and the cause of the Error.
Error Correction. The Company will use reasonable efforts to confirm the existence of an Error and to correct the Error, by providing a fix, patch, workaround, or any other reasonable solution. While the Company shall endeavor to correct all Errors, Customer acknowledges that not all Errors will be corrected or that a fix, patch, workaround, or any other offered solution will be found. The Company cannot and does not warrant or represent that any or all Errors can or will be corrected.
Measurement. Support Services response times are measured by the Company from the time the Error is received by the Company with sufficient details about the Error via the contact methods above. Otherwise, the guaranteed response time will not apply.
Service Availability
The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the service uptime levels set forth below.
The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the service dashboard at an uptime of 99.5%, measured on a quarterly basis (the "Uptime Commitment"). Uptime in this section means that the Service dashboard is displaying information based on data collected by the Company from Data Sources within 30 minutes or less of the relevant meta-date being registered by the Customer Systems for the stated percentage of time.
The Company will continuously monitor the performance of the service and track its compliance with the Uptime Commitment. In the event that the Company does not meet the Uptime Commitment, in each instance, Customer will report the downtime to the Company with sufficient information regarding the claimed failure as reasonably requested by the Company (the “Claim”). Should The Company dispute any Claim for periods of downtime, the Company will provide Customer with a record of the service availability for the period in question.
If during any calendar quarter, the Company fails to meet the Uptime Commitment, the Company will provide Customer with a service credit in accordance with the table below.
Actual Uptime Percentage: | Service Credit %: |
---|---|
≥ 96.5% but < 99.5% | 5% of the Fee |
≥ 94% but < 96.5% | 7.5% of the Fee |
< 94.0% | 10% of the Fee |
The Company will credit an amount equal to the Service Credit % times the fee paid by Customer for the applicable quarter against the fees due from Customer to the Company in the next payment cycle following the month in which a Claim is made, subject to the terms of this Service Level Agreement.
