SCHEDULE 1 SERVICE LEVELS

1.Platform and App Availability
1.1Platform and App shall be made available twenty-four (24) hours per day and seven days per week, including public holidays, excluding scheduled downtime (“Scheduled Downtime”) notified to customer.
1.2The availability of Platform and App excluding Scheduled Downtime shall not be less than 99.5% for any month.
2.Support Availability and Incident Response
2.1The Support Services shall be available from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (GMT+8) on Business Days.
2.2For incidents escalated to Supplier, Supplier will respond to and resolve the incident based on the severity set out below:

Severity 1: Critical
Customer’s use of the Platform or App is stopped or so severely impacted that Customer cannot reasonably continue work. Customer experience a complete loss of service. The impacted operation is mission critical to the business and the situation is an emergency. A Severity 1 service request has one or more of the following characteristics:

  • Data corrupted
  • A critical documented function is not available
  • Service hangs indefinitely, causing unacceptable or indefinite delays for resources or response
  • Services crashes, and crashes repeatedly after restart attempts
  • Security Incident with the potential to impact the confidentiality, integrity or availability of the service

Supplier will use reasonable efforts to respond to Severity 1 service requests within thirty (30) minutes. Supplier will work 24×7 until the Severity 1 service request is resolved, a reasonable workaround is put in place, or as long as useful progress can be made. Customer must provide Supplier with a technical contact during the 24×7 period to assist with data gathering, testing, and applying fixes. Customer are required to propose this severity classification with great care, so that valid Severity 1 situations obtain the necessary resource allocation from Supplier.

Severity 2: Significant
Customer experience a severe loss of service. Important features of the Platform or App are unavailable with no acceptable workaround; however, operations can continue in a restricted fashion.

Severity 3: Standard
Customer experience a minor loss of service. The impact is an inconvenience, which may require a workaround to restore functionality.

Severity 4: Minimal
Customer request information, enhancement, or documentation clarification regarding the Platform or App, but there is no impact on the operation of such service. Customer experience no loss of service.

2.3For the avoidance of doubt, Supplier shall have no obligation to provide any Support Services for any performance or availability issues to the Platform or App:

  1. due to factors beyond Supplier’s reasonable control;
  2. due to Customer’s failure to meet minimum system requirements required for the operation of the Services;
  3. that result from the use of services, hardware, or software not provided by Supplier, including, but not limited to, issues resulting from inadequate bandwidth or related to other application, programs, or other services created by any third party;
  4. caused by Customer’s breach of or non-compliance with the Agreement.
