Service Level Agreement

1. Definitions

Customer: a person or organisation with an active paid-for SoDash account. This does not include users with demo accounts. Customer with Priority Support: a Customer who has agreed and paid for priority support. Supplier: Sodash Ltd

Service: The service covered by this agreement shall comprise the advertised features of the paid- for online application hosted at http://sodash.com and http://soda.sh, and value-add services and products for the SoDash application as sold by the Supplier. It does not include the Customer's own computer equipment, or the software the Customer uses to access the internet, or the network required to connect to the Service.

Core Service: The features without which SoDash is not fit for normal usage. As an illustrative example (and without limitation), this includes login and viewing search results (where the Customer's account is authorised to do so and in credit), but excludes non-core features (such as providing metadata on messages) and experimental features.

Support Service: Additional services as described below, provided by the Supplier to help the Customer use the Service.

Help Request: Any request for help made by the Customer using the correct channels provided by the Supplier.

Incident: Any failure, malfunction or abnormal performance of the Service reported by the Customer to the Supplier.

Response Time: The time interval between the first Help Request by the Customer of an Incident and the Supplier replying (which may be by email, mail, phone or other means as appropriate). The Response Time is the time when the reply is sent.

Minor bug: a failure, malfunction or abnormal performance which does not prevent the Service being supplied as advertised. For Minor Bugs, the Supplier may choose to resolve the Incident as they see fit, including leaving the bug as-is. Resolution Time: The time interval between the Supplier's first starting to resolve the Incident and the resolution.

Working day: Monday to Friday, excluding UK public holidays.

2. Incident Escalation

Whenever the Supplier has failed to fix the fault within the Resolution Time, the Supplier shall:

• Notify the Customer with an estimate of the time required to resolve.
• Continue to allocate engineering resources until the Incident has been resolved, or an alternative plan agreed with the Customer.

3. Liability

Where the Supplier fails to meet the agreed service targets, the Customer shall be entitled to:

• Re-imbursement for extra staffing costs incurred as a direct result of the failed service targets up to a maximum of £20/£10 per hour for customers with/without priority support, and a maximum total claim per calendar month of £500/£50 for customers with/without priority support.
• A refund of payment for services proportional to the length of time the service was unavailable.

• The Customer is not entitled to any payment from the Supplier if the Incident was due to the Customer's misuse of the Service.
• The Customer is not entitled to any payment from the Supplier if the Customer was not in credit for the full duration of the Incident.
