Service Level Agreement

This Service Level Agreement (SLA) covers the availability and uptime of our Windows, Linux, VPS and Reseller hosting services

Coverage

This SLA applies to any TurtleTech Customer in good financial standing with TurtleTech at the time of a service outage.

Specifications

TurtleTech endeavors to have the content of all your web sites (which are being served by TurtleTech) available for HTTP access by any party in the world 99.9% of the time. Service outage (unavailability) is defined as 100% packet loss from TurtleTech to its backbone providers.

Compensation

In the event that that the average availability of all your websites (served by TurtleTech) falls below 99.9%, TurtleTech will credit the following month's Service Fee as follows. Such credit shall be retroactive and shall be as calculated below and as measured 24 hours a day in a calendar month, with the maximum credit not to exceed hundred (100) percent of the monthly Service Fee charge for the affected month.

Server uptime is calculated on monthly basis. You can claim credit under SLA once in a month. In order for you to receive a credit, you must request such credit by 7th of the month following in which you experienced the incident of web site unavailability. You must request credit by sending an electronic mail message to billing @ TurtleTech.com (without spaces). The body of this message must contain the address of the affected web site, the dates and times of its unavailability, and your personal information as on TurtleTech records. Credits will be granted within seven (7) days of your credit request if TurtleTech confirms the unavailability. No credit will be given if TurtleTech cannot confirm the unavailability of the website in question.

Credit to your account shall be your sole and exclusive remedy in the event of an outage. All credits given by TurtleTech are non refundable and may only be used to pay current or future service fees.
