Preface

FastTrack provides Admin By Request as a standard SaaS Product which is the same product for all customers. This means that FastTrack does not provide its customers with any custom deliverables, professional services, custom software development or any services on-site. To be able to provide a standardized product such as Admin By Request, it is imperative that FastTrack offers the same terms for all of its customers to ensure most possible predictability in contractual matters and reduce the complexity of introducing new features, changing internal security procedures, etc. This Agreement has been developed, adjusted, and assessed by our risk advisors, external legal counsel, internal legal counsel, and compliance department, not to mention reviewed by thousands of customers. This way, our customers can be certain that this Agreement reflects a set of fair and balanced terms for both parties in line with market practice.

6.0 Service Level

6.1

The SaaS Product is hosted by Microsoft Azure. Fasttrack provides the Customer access to the SaaS Product with a monthly uptime percentage (defined below) of at least 99,9%.

Monthly uptime percentage will be calculated as follows: The number of minutes the SaaS Product is accessible and not suffering from a service outage as reported to Fasttrack by the Customer during each calendar month, divided by the total number of minutes in the calendar month. If the Customer fails to report a service outage within five (5) days of the occurrence of such, the Customer shall not be entitled to any service credits. A monthly uptime percentage of 99.9% means that Fasttrack guarantee the Customer will experience no more than 43 minutes and 49.7 seconds per month of service outage.

 
Monthly uptime percentage Rating Service credits
99,9% or above Meets or exceeds target None
Between 99.0% and 99.9% Below target 10 % of monthly subscription
At or below 99.0% Unacceptable 25 % of monthly subscription
At or below 98.0% Unacceptable 100% of monthly subscription
 

The Customer must submit a claim by submitting a support ticket. If the monthly Uptime percentage of such request is confirmed by Fasttrack and is less than the service commitment, Fasttrack will confirm a service credit to the Customer within seven (7) days.

6.2

FastTrack may schedule Maintenance Service on the SaaS Product on Saturdays or Sundays, which is excluded from counted monthly uptime.

6.3

Microsoft warrants that the underlying infrastructure is available to FastTrack with uptime of 99.99%. In the event that this is not the case, and a documented Microsoft Azure outage is documented at https://status.azure.com/en-us/status, such outage is excluded from monthly uptime, as this is not within FastTrack’s reasonable control.

6.4

For the avoidance of doubt, downtime caused directly or indirectly by any of the following will not be considered a breach of this Agreement:
