This Autonetic Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) is a policy governing the use of the Autonetic Services (herein referred to as “Services”) under the terms of the Autonetic Services Customer Agreement (herein referred to as “Customer Agreement”) between Autonetic Software Technologies Pvt Ltd (herein referred to as “Autonetic” “us” or “we”) and users of services (herein referred to as “you”). This SLA applies separately to each account using our Service. Unless otherwise provided herein, this SLA is subject to the terms of the Customer. We reserve the right to change the terms of this SLA in accordance with the Customer Agreement.
Service Commitment
Autonetic will use commercially reasonable efforts to make Cloud available with
an Annual Uptime Percentage (defined below) of at least 99.9% during every Service
month. In the event Autonetic does not meet the Annual Uptime Percentage commitment,
you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below.
Definitions
With an uptime guarantee of 99.9%, our servers will not be unavailable for service
for more than “8.76” hours in one year. If, in case, the servers are down for more
than the stipulated time, you are eligible for a service credit on request.
“Server Unavailable” and “Server Unavailability” means that one or any of the replacement Servers is “Unavailable” to you or “Non Accessible” to you for use.
If you have been using our services for less than 365 days, your Service Year is still the preceding 365 days but any days prior to your use of the service will be deemed to have had 100% Availability. Any downtime occurring prior to a successful Service Credit claim cannot be used for future claims. Annual Uptime Percentage measurements exclude downtime resulting directly or indirectly from any SLA Exclusion (defined below).
Service Commitments and Service Credits
If the Annual Uptime Percentage for a customer drops below 99.9% for a month, that
customer is eligible to receive a Service Credit service credit, on request, of
one day hosting for every hour the server was down.
You will receive the service credit in the form of additional hosting period without any additional fee from the date of your expiration of the package.
For example, Mr. Raj, using a hosting package which expires on 31st March, requests a service credit due to unavailability of our servers for the period of 1st November to 30th November. Suppose the server was unavailable for one hour other than the given downtime. The expiration of Hosting package for Mr. Raj will change to 1 April as a Service credit for the hosting downtime period.
For the month in which the uptime guarantee was not met, you should send a credit request to the Billing Department via an email addressed to cloud-sla-request@autonetic.com and billing@autonetic.com sent within 15 days from the completion of the month in which the uptime criteria was not met. The credit will be provided to you in the means of service extension from the date of your hosting expiration.
The uptime guarantee is applicable only for Shared Hosting service provided by us. It does not include Domain Service or Dedicated Servers hosting.
The service credit that you will receive will be non-transferrable, non-refundable and cannot be exchanged for any other service.
SLA Exclusions
The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination
of our servers, or any other server performance issues: (i) that result from Service
Suspensions described in Section 6 of the Customer Agreement; (ii) caused by factors
outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or Internet
access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of Autonetic; (iii) that
result from any actions or inactions of you or any third party; (iv) that result
from your equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment,
software or other technology (other than third party equipment within our direct
control); (v) that result from failures of individual instances not attributable
to Server Unavailability; or (vi) arising from our suspension and termination of
your right to use our services in accordance with the Customer Agreement (collectively,
the “SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those explicitly
listed in this agreement, we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors
in our sole discretion.
Service Credit is only applicable for Web Hosting Services as mentioned in our Customer Agreement.
