Network & Power SLA
Coverage; Definitions
This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") applies to you ("Customer") if you have ordered dedicated server services or colocation services ("Services") from IPIPE International Corp. (the "Company") and your account is current (i.e., not past due). As used herein, the term "Availability" means the percentage of a particular month (based on 24-hour days for the number of days in the subject month) that the Customer's Services are available for access from the Internet, as measured by the Company.

To receive a credit for a breach of this SLA, the Customer must make a request in writing by submitting a ticket in Company's panel to the billing department. The ticket MUST include the Customer's login and account number, the date & time(s) of breach of the SLA, and the ticket must be submitted by an authorized account contact. Requests for credit must be properly submitted according to these terms and received by Company within ten (10) business days after the breach occurred. If the breach is confirmed by Company, credits will be applied within two billing cycles after Company's validation of the Customer's credit request. Credits are not refundable and can be used only towards future billing charges.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the total amount credited to Customer in a particular month under this SLA shall not exceed the total fees paid by Customer for such month for the affected Services. Credits are exclusive of any applicable taxes charged to Customer or collected by Company and are Customer's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any failure or deficiency in the Availability of Customer's Services.
