Availability of Ordered Software Services

UserZoom shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain each Ordered Software Service in a manner that minimizes errors and interruptions and to make such Ordered Software Service available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, but it is understood that an Ordered Software Service may be temporarily unavailable due to (a) maintenance, application of Updates (as defined below) and testing of systems, applications and networks within the Data Center (collectively, “Scheduled Maintenance”), or (b) Force Majeure Events. UserZoom will use all commercially reasonable efforts to provide Customer with at least 72 hours advance notice of any Scheduled Maintenance.

In the event of an outage of an Ordered Software Service other than Scheduled Maintenance where users experience no response (“Emergency Downtime”), UserZoom will follow its standard outage procedure set forth below:

  • UserZoom will check audit logs to determine if any users were logged in at the time of the outage, and will promptly contact Customer and/or the effected user(s) to understand the impact
  • Within 60 minutes of the identification of the outage, UserZoom will notify Customer via e-mail with a status and ETA for restoring service, if available.
  • UserZoom will notify Customer via e-mail with status and ETA for restoring (if available), in accordance with UserZoom’s standard policies and procedures with respect to such

Configuration Management

Emergency, non-routine, and other configuration changes to existing UserZoom infrastructure are authorized, logged, tested, approved and documented in accordance with industry best practices for similar systems. Updates to UserZoom’s infrastructure are done to minimize any impact on the customer and their use of the services. UserZoom will communicate with customers when service use is likely to be adversely affected.

UserZoom applies a systematic approach to managing change so that changes to customer impacting services are thoroughly reviewed, tested, approved and well communicated. UserZoom’s change management process is designed to avoid unintended service disruptions and to maintain the integrity of service to the customer. Changes deployed into production environments are:

  • Reviewed: Peer reviews of the technical aspects of a change are performed to ensure functionality, maintainability, and security.
  • Tested: being applied will behave as expected and not adversely impact performance.
  • Approved: to provide appropriate oversight and understanding of business impact.

Whenever possible, software changes are scheduled during regular Scheduled Maintenance/change windows. Emergency changes to production systems that require deviations from standard change management procedures are associated with an incident and are logged and approved as appropriate.

UserZoom Go Service Level Agreement

Monthly Availability Credit

UserZoom will use all reasonable efforts to minimize downtime of the Ordered Software Services and to ensure a Monthly Availability Percentage of 99.5%, except as set forth below. The Monthly Availability Credit is calculated on an aggregate Monthly basis as follows:

Monthly Availability Percentage = (total minutes in the month – total number of minutes that the Ordered Software Service is inoperable in that month) / total minutes in the month

So long as UserZoom takes commercially reasonable steps to restore service as rapidly as possible, the Monthly Availability Percentage excludes (1) periods of Scheduled Maintenance; (2) problems caused by use by Customer of the Ordered Software Services in a manner not in accordance with the Documentation; (3) outages due to problems with Customer Content; (4) outages due to system administration, commands, file transfers performed by Customer representatives; (5) outages due to denial of service attacks, natural disasters, changes resulting from government, political, or other regulatory actions or court orders, strikes of third parties or labor disputes of third parties, acts of civil disobedience, acts of war, acts against parties (including carriers and UserZoom’s other vendors), and other force majeure items; (6) lack of availability due to untimely response time of Customer to respond to incidents that require its participation for source identification and/or resolution; (7) outages due to Customer’s breach of its material obligations under the Agreement; and (8) outages due to failure of the Customer Access Equipment or other Customer hardware or software.

Remedy

If the Monthly Availability Percentage is less than 99.5% in any given month, Customer will be entitled to receive a refund of the Subscription Fees attributable to that particular month as follows:

 

Uptime Percentage

Credit Percentage

97.50% - 99.49% 5%
95.50% - 97.49% 8%
92.00% - 95.49% 10%
Less than 92.00% 15%

 

 

Calculation of Refunds

The refund is calculated as a percentage of one-twelfth of the annual Subscription Fees paid in that year for the month during which the Data Center does not achieve the guaranteed 99.5% Monthly Availability Percentage set forth above.

Monthly Reports

Upon request, UserZoom will deliver to Customer’s designated principal contact person a report regarding the operations of the Data Center and the usage of the Ordered Software Service(s) in the prior month. Such report shall include, among others, a summary of the Monthly Availability Percentage for the Ordered Software Service(s) in the previous month, the amount of Scheduled Maintenance and Emergency Downtime.
