Virtual Private Server Service Level Agreemeent
The Service Level Agreement (SLA) is incorporated into the Master
Service Agreement and applicable to virtual private server services
delivered directly to Customers of Future Hosting, LLC. The SLA
is not applicable to unrelated third parties or third parties
lacking privity of contract with Future Hosting. The uptime guarantees
and the resulting SLA credits are applied in monthly terms unless
specified otherwise. All SLA guarantees and information listed
below are made in good faith and are subject to standard contract
remedies.
SLA Credit Claim: To properly claim an SLA credit due, a master
administrative user must open an SLA ticket located inside
the help desk within five days of the purported outage. Customer
must include service type, IP Address, contact information,
and full description of the service interruption including
logs if applicable. The SLA claim will be researched by the
appropriate department manager and any credit issued will be
issued to accounting and the ticket will be updated. SLA credits
are issued as service credits on future billing cycles. SLA
credits shall not be bartered or traded with other Future Hosting
customers. Please allow up to twenty (20) days for the processing
of SLA claims.
SLA Claim Fault: Customers currently in arrears for monthly
services do not qualify for SLA claims. Customers making false
or repetitive claims will incur a one time charge of $50 per
incident for such claims. False or repetitive claims are also
a violation of the Terms of Service and may be subject to service
suspension. Customers participating in malicious or aggressive
internet activities thereby causing attacks or counterattacks,
do not qualify for SLA claims and shall be in violation of
the AUP.
