Target Uptime: 99.8%
Uptime is assessed monthly. Any downtime exceeding 1 hour and 28 minutes (other than Excused Downtime) within a month indicates the target uptime was not met.
If bKlug fails to meet the Service Level Agreement outlined above in any month (excluding "Excused Downtime" events), the Customer is entitled to a service credit based on the fees for the affected Service, as follows:
Availability Percentage
Service Credit
Above Target
N/A
Between 99.8% and 99.5%
5%
Between 99.5% and 99.0%
10%
Between 99.0% and 98.0%
20%
Less than 98.0%
25%
For each instance where the target response time is not met within a month, the Customer is entitled to a service credit of 5%, up to a maximum of 25%.
Service credits are applied to future Usage Fees. To request a service credit, the Customer must submit a written request to bKlug within 30 days of the end of the calendar month in which the Service Level Agreement event occurred. Failure to do so forfeits the Customer's right to claim the credit. The total credit in a month cannot exceed 50% of the monthly charges for the affected services.
No credit accrues for failure to meet the Service Level Agreement due to the following "Excused Downtime" events (as determined by bKlug):
1. Customer-initiated changes affecting the Software Services.
2. Unavailability of third-party services such as the OpenAI API.
3. Violation of Terms of Service or Acceptable Use Policies by the Customer.
4. Force majeure events.
5. Malicious Code.
6. Scheduled maintenance with at least 48 hours' notice, totaling up to 4 hours per month.
7. Emergency maintenance with at least 60 minutes' notice, totaling up to 2 hours per month.
bKlug reserves the right to amend this Service Level Agreement in order to adapt it to new regulations, case laws and industrial and/or commercial practice.
If bKlug decides to change its Service Level Agreement, it will post those changes on this page.
