Service Level Agreement for BitHut

BitHut.com, a division of StoryManager, Inc., is pleased to support its services with this Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) with you. This SLA is incorporated into your Terms of Services Agreement ("Agreement") with us. Terms not defined in this SLA have the definitions set out in the Agreement. The remedies set out in this SLA are Customer’s sole and exclusive remedy for issues covered by the SLA. While we will not modify this SLA arbitrarily, we may do so from time-to-time. Should we make a change to this SLA, we shall notify Customer (e.g. by email or by notification in the Customer control panel). The notification will set out the effective date of any changes. It is important that Customer review the SLA completely.

Service Availability

StoryManager will provide service availability of 99.95% (“Service Availability”), calculated on a calendar month basis.  The Service Availability will be calculated as follows: [Total number of minutes Service is available in a calendar month DIVIDED BY (Total number of minutes in a calendar month LESS Excused Downtime)]

SLA Credits

Customer will receive a credit of one percent (1%) of Customer’s monthly fee for each hour in which we fail to meet the Service Availability ("Downtime") for such month (“SLA Credits”). Downtime is calculated by analytic reports and is subject to Excused Downtime as defined below. In order to receive SLA Credits, Customer must make a request in writing to StoryManager via Support or to Customer’s account manager (if applicable) within 30 days of the event giving rise to such SLA Credits.  SLA Credits are based on our monitoring, may not exceed the total amount of recurring fees Customer has paid to us for the month in which we failed to meet the Service Availability, are forfeited at the expiration or termination of the Agreement, may not be aggregated, and will not be paid in cash.
