1. Definitions

"AHSAY" means AHSAY SYSTEMS CORPORATION LIMITED whose registered office is situated at 28/F, Ford Glory Plaza, No. 37 Wing Hong Street, Lai Chi Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong. Ahsay Backup Infrastructure as a Service ("BIaaS") means a managed service offered by AHSAY to provide a person or a business entity ("YOU") with one virtual machine ("VM") running on Microsoft Azure cloud platform with AhsayCBS centralized management software ("AhsayCBS") installed, one set of login credential to the provided AhsayCBS, and a continuous managed service to monitor the VM and AhsayCBS to make sure the VM and AhsayCBS are up and running at agreed service levels ("SERVICE LEVELS"). Service Credit ("CREDIT") means the remedy AHSAY will provide to YOU for not being able to meet the SERVICE LEVELS.

1.1 Service Level Agreement ("SLA")

AHSAY will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide BIaaS with the following SERVICE LEVELS:

  • The VM provided will be with external connectivity throughout 99.9% of time of a calendar month.
  • The AhsayCBS provided will be with external connectivity throughout 99.9% of time of a calendar month.
 

In the event that BIaaS does not meet the either of the SERVICE LEVELS described above, YOU will be eligible to receive a CREDIT as described below:

  • If the external connectivity of VM for a given calendar month is lower than 99.9%, YOU will get a CREDIT that equals 10% of the total BIaaS charge YOU need to pay for that month.
  • If the external connectivity of AhsayCBS for a given calendar month is lower than 99.9%, YOU will get a CREDIT that equals 10% of the total BIaaS charge YOU need to pay for that month.

AHSAY will apply the CREDIT to the next available billing period following your request. The maximum value of the CREDIT claimed by YOU will not exceed 20% of the monthly recurring fees of the BIaaS.

3. Exclusion

BIaaS does not include a paid Meter License of AhsayCBS, AhsayOBM, AhsayACB and any other software developed by AHSAY. You need to acquire this paid Meter License from AHSAY separately and input the correct license information into AhsayCBS in order to make it functioning properly.
