  • "Service Year" means a period of 12 months during which IMS - Network provides the relevant SLA service to the customer.
  • "99.9%" means potential unavailability of any SLA services for up to 8 cumulative hours during each Service Year.

SLA Services

This SLA applies to our cloud products and services as described in the Terms of Use.

To be eligible for any compensation under this SLA, the customer must:

  2. Provide IMS - Network customer support with all relevant details regarding the claim, including a detailed description of the incident, the time duration it occurred, affected accounts, and any attempts by the customer to resolve the incident.

IMS - Network will review each claim with utmost care. If IMS - Network, at its sole discretion, accepts the customer’s claim, the relevant compensation will be provided, subject to the provisions of this SLA.

Miscellaneous
