Comprehensive Service Commitments & Protections
Introduction
Binding Service Level Agreement
This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") outlines the legally binding terms and conditions under which GetOn and Startups Venture ("Company," "we," "our," or "us") provides website design and maintenance services ("Services") to our clients.
This SLA establishes clear service expectations, performance metrics, remedies for service failures, and mutual responsibilities between the Company and the Client. It forms an integral part of our overall Terms and Conditions.
Service Scope
The Services provided by the Company include comprehensive website design, development, maintenance, and related offerings as explicitly described in the selected subscription plan. Services are strictly limited to the scope defined in your chosen plan.
Service Availability
Uptime Guarantee
The Company guarantees a minimum service availability of 99% uptime, measured on a monthly basis. This excludes scheduled maintenance windows and force majeure events.
Service availability is calculated as: [(Total Minutes in Month - Downtime Minutes) / Total Minutes in Month] × 100. Downtime is measured from the time an issue is reported until service restoration.
Scheduled maintenance will be communicated to clients at least 72 hours in advance via email and will be performed during low-traffic hours (typically Sundays between 12:00 AM - 6:00 AM MYT) whenever possible.
| Service Tier | Uptime Guarantee | Service Credit |
|---|---|---|
| Basic | 99% monthly | 5% credit per 0.5% below target |
| Professional | 99.5% monthly | 10% credit per 0.25% below target |
| Enterprise | 99.9% monthly | 15% credit per 0.1% below target |
