Alongside our standard SLA and Terms, the following additional terms are for our managed services (managed cloud, managed VPS, and other managed dedicated services):
- Deployment Guarantee
1.1 Unless otherwise stated, JINC does not guarantee a deployment timeframe but will use reasonable endeavors to deploy the server(s) promptly. JINC may, from time to time, agree to provide a guaranteed deployment timeframe for an additional fee. Where such Deployment Guarantee is agreed, JINC will deploy the Server(s) by the date stated, provided that you promptly provide all information that we reasonably request from you to complete deployment. Servers are deemed deployed as of the time that JINC generates an email message to you that includes the information needed to allow you to transfer information to and from the Server(s). Apart from any rights and remedies you may have under law, your sole and exclusive remedy for our failure to meet the Deployment Guarantee shall be a credit equal to the amount of the fee paid for the Deployment Guarantee service. You are not entitled to a credit if you request or cause the deployment delay. This Deployment Guarantee does not apply to any software or other managed services. If you request (orally or in writing) that we deploy your servers by a specific date or on an “expedited” basis for no additional fee, then the Deployment Guarantee shall not apply, and we commit only to using reasonable endeavors to deploy the Server(s) by the date requested. - Managed Backup
2.1 JINC’s managed backup services are designed to facilitate restoration of data to the server or device from which the data originated in the event the primary data is lost or corrupted. Our standard managed backup service includes full server-based backups every 24 hours. Additional incremental backup services are available as required.
2.2 While JINC attempts to keep regular backups of data stored on our systems, we do not guarantee the existence, accuracy, or regularity of our backup services and, therefore, JINC does not guarantee that its backup procedures will prevent the loss of, alteration of, or improper access to our clients’ information. JINC is not responsible or liable for any loss of business which may occur due to downtime. - Unsupported configuration elements or services
3.1 If you ask JINC to implement a configuration element (hardware or software) or hosting service in a manner that is not customary at JINC, or that is in “end of life” or “end of support” status, we may designate the element or service as “unsupported,” “non-standard,” “best efforts, ” “reasonable endeavors,” “one-off,” “EOL,” “end of support” or with like term. JINC makes no representation or warranty whatsoever regarding any Unsupported Service, and you agree that JINC shall not be liable to you for any loss or damage arising from the provision of the Unsupported Service apart from rights and remedies you may have under law in relation to Non-excludable Rights. The Deployment and Service Level Guarantees shall not apply to the Unsupported Service, or any other aspect of the Hosting Services that is adversely affected by the Unsupported Service. You acknowledge that Unsupported Services may not interoperate with JINC’s other services, such as backup or monitoring. - Monitoring & Response
4.1 JINC goes to every effort for effective external monitoring. JINC uses third party services to provide accurate monitoring outside of our network, with checks scheduled to run every 5 minutes. This monitoring alerts engineers of potential problems with: a) Network access b) Web service access (HTTP/HTTPS unless otherwise requested). Other kinds of checks/monitoring may be set up by arrangement.
4.1 Maximum initial response time for managed services is 2 hours. An online ticketing system will be provided to handle support requests. Final request resolution and total resolution time will vary depending on the nature of the issue, and are not covered with an SLA. Response time is measured from the time at which JINC staff are notified of the issue(s) by our monitoring systems.
4.3 JINC provides 99.9% uptime, but aims for 100% uptime.
4.4 JINC retains the right to run software which may consume server resources in order to operate statistics and server-side monitoring services, to be used for the optimization, alerting and overall system health monitoring. - Fees
5.1 Your first invoice will include: A provisioning fee and a quarterly, half or annual recurring fee.
5.2 If you are using Joget’s virtualization platform (“cloud”), due to the nature of our pricing model, the total amount of your quarterly, half yearly or annual invoice may vary from invoice to invoice, as a result of, but not limited to: variations in resources used; variations in storage used; variations in bandwidth used.
5.3 If any invoice or part thereof is overdue by more than 7 days, we will impose a late fee equal to 5% of the amount that is overdue. After 30 days, we may suspend your service. If we must use legal action to collect late payment of invoices, you must also pay JINC’s costs of collection, including reasonable legal fees, expenses, and court costs.
5.4 Each managed services package comes with monthly usable bandwidth, and it shall not be carried forward. Exceeding the usage will be charged based on cloud provider's rate. - Maintenance
6.1 It may be necessary for JINC to temporarily suspend services to maintain our network, hardware, server OS, or other facilities. We will provide you with reasonable advance notice (72hrs) of the scheduled maintenance unless the nature of the maintenance is deemed critical. This will not be deemed as an interruption of the service for the purpose of calculating network, infrastructure, or hardware availability or your entitlement to credit. Notice will be provided by email and our website.
6.2 Maintenance includes the patching of necessary software as required, and may include emergency patching which could result in temporary loss of services. Emergency patching could include critical security updates which must be installed in a time critical manner. All efforts will be taken to reduce such instances to an absolute minimum of downtime. - Managed services guarantee
7.1 JINC guarantees that infrastructure and services related to all reasonable access to agreed services will be available for the period guaranteed in the level of care your management plan is associated with, within any given month, excluding scheduled maintenance.
7.2 For any issues which arise from the managed application layer, JINC will provide a brief investigation to ascertain what the nature of the issue may be. JINC will notify relevant parties (client, developer) of their initial investigations, but make no guarantees for any information provided.
7.3 For application errors, bugs or any other related problems, please ensure your Joget DX Software Assurance is valid in order to obtain support. - Credits
8.1 If JINC does not maintain guaranteed uptime availability within any given month, you may be eligible for credit up to 100% of your monthly bill or expected bill. JINC will provide a 5% credit for each 60mins of downtime. To request credit, you must email JINC support with your request within (5) business days.
8.2 The maximum total credit for all guarantees shall not exceed 100% of your fee for that billing period (or a calculated fee based on previous months if billed in a post-pay). Credits do not carry over to future billing periods.
8.3 Credits will not be provided if poor or interrupted service is related to: a) scheduled maintenance b) circumstances beyond JINC’s control, including network attacks, service failures outside of our immediate network or infrastructure c) anything resulting from war, fire, flood, labor disturbance, government regulations, other government intervention, or force majeure. d) a breach by the customer to our terms or SLA. - Scope of JINC Level management
