Additionally, scheduled maintenance with at least 48 hours notice is not covered.
Uptime is measured on a per-minute basis by a third-party. Any covered unavailability of at least three consecutive minutes is considered an outage. If the cumulative outage minutes in a month exceed the allowed downtime (calcuated as SLA Percentage * Minutes in Month = Allowed Downtime), then a credit (calculated as Outage Percentage * Monthly Base Plan Rate = Credit Amount) will be issued.
Credits will be issued within 21 days of the end of the measured month and may only be used for services billed after the credit is issued. We may use calendar months or individual monthly billing cycles as the measured month, at our discretion. Credits may not exceed the amount paid for the affected month.
