Adaptive Shield - Customer Success SLA

This Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) forms an integral part of and is subject to the agreement or Terms of Service entered into by and between Adaptive Shield Inc. or A.S. Adaptive Shield Ltd., as applicable (“Provider”) and its customer (“Customer”) that references this SLA (“Agreement”). Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning given to them in the Agreement. This SLA may be updated from time to time at Provider’s sole discretion. Please revisit this page from time to time to stay up to date on the latest SLA terms.

  1. Support: Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and the Agreement, Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to diagnose and correct verifiable and reproducible problems (“Errors”) when reported to Provider in accordance with the procedures set forth herein. Provider offers two tiers of support: Tier 1 support addresses basic issues, while Tier 2 support requires technical bug fixing or technical research. Tier 1 support issues can be addressed through the documentation found in Provider’s online help center.
  2. Managed Security Service Provider: If Customer has purchased a license to the Solution from an authorized Managed Security Service Provider (“MSSP”), the MSSP is solely responsible for providing support and Customer shall not contact Provider directly for support.
  3. Reporting: Customer is required to report Errors in a timely manner per email to [email protected]. Customer shall assist Provider in addressing the issue as necessary, including assistance in assessing, reproducing, and finding acceptable solutions to resolve an Error. Customer shall further provide Provider with access to its personnel and equipment as necessary to address any Error.
  4. Response Times: Provider shall promptly respond to Customer’s requests for support services during Business Days (defined below) within the time frames set forth below. Please note resolutions to Errors may take the form of a workaround or other such temporary solution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Provider cannot commit to response times where a fix or update is required of a third-party service provider.

    Severity Level Description Response Time
    1. Software errors that cause a total system failure impacting all users or total failure of a critical functional area, causing critical disruption of Customer’s business. Within 6 Business Hours
    2. Software errors that cause a limited failure of a critical functional area. The Solution is degraded but remains usable. Remaining areas are still usable and the impact on the Customer’s business is moderate to severe. Within 2 Business Days
    3. Questions or issues regarding data, settings, or other items within the portal. Within 3 Business Days
    4. General support questions. Within 5 Business Days

    The response times set forth above are measured from the time an Error is reported in accordance with this SLA.

Exclusions: Provider shall have no obligation to provide support services hereunder if the Solution: (i) has been used other than in accordance with the Agreement, Provider’s instructions, or applicable documentation, including use with unauthorized third-party or Customer software, hardware, network infrastructure, or other technology; (ii) has been modified, repaired, serviced, maintained, or altered by anyone other than Provider and without Provider’s prior written approval; (iii) has been damaged as a result of Customer’s act or omission or any other event over which Provider does not have control, including a force majeure event; or (iv) to the extent any error is the result of Customer’s failure to install updates and upgrades provided by Provider.
  6. Data and Recovery: Customer will be solely responsible for the management of its data back-up, data recovery, and disaster recovery measures. Provider will not be responsible or held liable for Customer’s internal processes, procedures, or requirements to ensure the protection, loss, confidentiality, or security of Customer’s data or information.
  7. Service Credits: Provider will provide Customer with service credits in the amounts listed below in the event that, as a result of Provider’s breach of the support obligations set forth herein, the Uptime (as defined below) of the Solution does not equal or exceed the corresponding percentage set forth in the table below in a given month. In the table below, service credits will equal a dollar value equal to the percentage of the amount paid by the Customer for the month that the applicable Uptime levels were not attained.
