Customer Service Level Agreement. The expected service level for
WebTMA is 99.8% up-time. This excludes problems caused by you or by non-TMA
service providers.
WebTMA is available 24 hours per day, 7
days per week except for periods when it is unavailable for scheduled
maintenance of the software, hardware, network, or other service components.
You will be notified at least 24 hours before any scheduled maintenance is
performed. Scheduled maintenance is never performed during Normal Business
Hours. Normal Business Hours are 8:00 am to 5:00 pm CST Monday through Friday.
WebTMA is
considered to be down if the Internet connection is down for a period greater
than 60 minutes. Since connection involves multiple, redundant links to
multiple upstream providers, this means that ALL connections are unavailable
for that period.
For each
single outage that is greater than 60 minutes, WebTMA clients will receive
credit for one day of all applicable charges (one-thirtieth of the applicable
monthly service charge adjusted by any discounts). A maximum of 7 days of
credit is available during any one calendar month. Credit is not available if
failure is due to: a fault in your data; a fault outside the WebTMA network;
scheduled maintenance; customer acts or omissions; and circumstances beyond
TMA’s reasonable control. Additionally, you will not receive credits for any
period in which you received the services at no cost. If you are entitled to receive credits in any
calendar month, the total amount credited to you in connection with any failure
shall not exceed the monthly recurring charges otherwise payable by you in such
calendar month. If you pay on an annual basis, the daily credit will be based
on the annual software amount divided by 365. The credit provided shall be your
sole and exclusive remedy for any failure by TMA Systems to provide WebTMA or
adequate service level including, but not limited to, any outages or network
congestion. Credits will be calculated from the total monthly software charge
from the month the outage occurred. In order to receive credit as stated above,
you must notify TMA Systems within 7 days from the time you become eligible to
receive such credits.
Termination.
TMA, in its sole discretion, may terminate your password, account, or
use of the Service and remove and discard any Data within the Service if you
fail to comply with this Agreement. You may terminate your user membership upon
notice to TMA at any time. Upon termination, you will be granted a refund of
any prepaid charges for the remaining term of your subscription starting one
month from receipt of your notice. TMA shall
make available a file of your Data, provided that you request the Data file
within (30) days of termination. In addition, TMA may terminate your
account if you do not first log-on within 30 days after registration or 90 days
since your last log-on. Upon termination of an account, your right to use such
account and the Service immediately ceases. TMA shall have no obligation to
maintain any Data stored in your account or to forward any Data to you or any
third party, other than that provided for above.
