Service Level Agreement

📋

1. Introduction

This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") describes the service availability commitments for Gozunga's infrastructure services. This SLA is subject to the terms of the Master Service Agreement and other applicable policies.

📖

2. Definitions

2.1 Service Availability

  • "Available" means the service is operational and accessible to customers
  • "Unavailable" means the service is not operational or accessible due to Gozunga infrastructure failure
  • "Monthly Uptime Percentage" = ((Total Minutes in Month – Unavailable Minutes) / Total Minutes in Month) × 100

2.2 Service Credit

"Service Credit" means the compensation provided to eligible customers for service unavailability

2.3 Excluded Events

The following events do not constitute unavailability:

  • Scheduled maintenance
  • Emergency maintenance
  • Force majeure events
  • Customer-caused outages
  • Issues resulting from customer applications or content
  • Third-party service provider failures
  • Network issues outside our infrastructure
  • Security incidents or attacks
  • Suspension due to violation of policies
🎯

3. Service Commitment

3.1 Availability Target

Gozunga guarantees 99.99% Monthly Uptime Percentage for our infrastructure services.

3.2 Service Credit Schedule

For usage-based services, customers receive credit for service unavailability according to the following schedule:

Monthly Uptime PercentageService Credit
99.9% to < 99.99%10% of monthly charges
99.0% to < 99.9%25% of monthly charges
95.0% to < 99.0%50% of monthly charges
< 95.0%100% of monthly charges

Note: For usage-based services, credits are calculated based on the customer's actual usage charges during the billing period. Since customers do not accrue charges during service outages, credits provide compensation for the inability to use paid-for services during downtime periods.

10.1 Credit Calculation Example

Scenario: Customer with $100 in usage charges experiences downtime resulting in 99.5% monthly uptime

  • Actual Usage Charges: $100 (for services used during uptime)
  • Monthly Uptime: 99.5% (falls in 99.0% to < 99.9% range)
  • Credit Percentage: 25% of usage charges
