This SLA does not apply to Customers on Free, Trial, or Team plans. This SLA does not apply to Customers on Freshpaint’s Business Plan with L1 or L2 Support on their Order Forms.

Service Credits may not be redeemed for cash, and may not exceed 50% of the total monthly fees for that Service in the month that the incident occurred.

Description |
Service Commitment |
Service Credit |
Data Collection SDKs |
Freshpaint’s APIs for collecting Customer Data. |
99.9% |
1 hour credit against platform fees per hour of Downtime |
4.2 Service Credits
If one Core Service has Downtime, Customer will receive a Service Credit against the entire platform fee even if the other Core Services are working. If more than one Core Service is down, Customer will receive one Service Credit against the entire platform fee, not multiple credits.
4.3 Service Commitment Calculation
The Service Commitment will be calculated as follows: the number of minutes the Services are accessible and not suffering from a downtime as reported to Company by Customer during each calendar month, divided by the total number of minutes in the calendar month. A monthly uptime percentage of 99.9% means that we will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that you will experience no more than 43 minutes and 49.7 seconds of downtime per month, excluding holidays and any scheduled maintenance. However, any Downtime Customer experiences resulting from outages of third party connections or utilities or other reasons beyond Freshpaint’s control will be excluded from any such calculation.
5. CLAIMS
5.1 Customer must submit claims to Freshpaint customer support (support@freshpaint.io) along with all information necessary for Freshpaint to validate each claim, including: (i) a detailed description of the incident; (ii) information regarding the time and duration of the Downtime; (iii) the number and location(s) of affected users (if applicable); and (iv) descriptions of Customer’s attempts to resolve the incident.
5.2 Freshpaint must receive the claim within two months of the end of the month in which the incident occurred.
5.3 Freshpaint will evaluate all reasonably available information and make a good faith determination of whether a Service Credit is owed. Freshpaint will use commercially reasonable efforts to process claims within 45 days of receipt. Customer must be in compliance with the Agreement to be eligible for Service Credits. If a Service Credit is owed to Customer, Freshpaint will apply the Service Credit to Customer’s subsequent service term or to any additional Services added during the current term.
5.4 If Customer experiences Downtime for multiple Services, they must submit a separate request for each Service. Service Credits are Customer’s sole remedy for performance or availability issues for any Service under the Agreement and this SLA.
6. LIMITATIONS
6.1 Downtime does not include Service unavailability due to the following:
- Maintenance requested by Customer, scheduled maintenance, or unscheduled emergency maintenance, either by Freshpaint or by third-party providers. Freshpaint will provide seven days advance notice in writing or by e-mail of scheduled maintenance, not to exceed 24 hours per month.
- Failure of equipment, software, or other parts of the Services not listed as a Core Service.
- Outages of third party connections or utilities or other reasons beyond Freshpaint’s reasonable control.
