3. SLA

 

Ayraa provides a 99.99% Uptime commitment for paid customers (our Service Level Agreement or SLA).

 

SLA breakdown

Downtime

 

Downtime is the overall number of minutes Ayraa was unavailable during a Ayraa fiscal quarter (i.e., February 1 through April 30 and every three month period thereafter). Ayraa calculates unavailability using server monitoring software to measure the server side error rate, ping test results, web server tests, TCP port tests, and website tests.

Downtime excludes the following:

  • Slowness or other performance issues with individual features (link expansions, search, file uploads, etc.)

  • Issues that are related to external apps or third parties, including Ayraa Connect

  • Any products or features identified as pilot, alpha, beta or similar

  • External network or equipment problems outside of our reasonable control, such as bad routing tables between your internet service provider (ISP) and our server

  • Scheduled Downtime for maintenance

Uptime Commitment

Uptime is the percentage of total possible minutes Ayraa was available during a fiscal quarter. Our commitment is to maintain at least 99.99% Uptime:

[(total minutes in quarter - Downtime) / total minutes in quarter] > 99.99%

Scheduled Downtime

Sometimes we need to perform maintenance to keep Ayraa working smoothly. If scheduled downtime is necessary, we’ll give you at least 48 hours advance notice.

Recipient may disclose Confidential Information to the limited extent required to by the order or requirement of a court, administrative agency, or other governmental body; provided, however, that the Recipient notifies the Discloser in writing in advance of such disclosure (unless prohibited by law from doing so) and provides the Discloser with copies of any related information so that the Discloser may take appropriate action to protect its Confidential Information.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Recipient will advise the Discloser immediately in the event that it learns or has reason to believe that any person or entity that has had access to Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, through the Receiver, has violated or intends to violate the terms of this Agreement.
