This MessageBird Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) governs the use of the MessageBird Services under the terms of the Algemene voorwaarden van MessageBird (the “GT&C”) between MessageBird B.V., (“MessageBird”, “us” or “we”) and users of the MessageBird Services (“you” or “Customer”). This SLA applies separately to each account using the MessageBird Services. Unless otherwise provided herein, this SLA is subject to the terms of the GT&C and capitalized terms will have the meaning specified in the GT&C.

1. VERBINTENIS TOT DIENSTVERLENING

   MessageBird doet een commercieel redelijke inspanning om de MessageBird Diensten 99.95% van de tijd beschikbaar te maken. In het geval dat de Klant ervaart dat MessageBird niet voldoet aan de beschikbaarheid van de Dienst van 99.95% in een bepaalde kalendermaand (“Maandelijks Uptime Percentage”), kom je in aanmerking voor Service Credit zoals hieronder beschreven.

2. DEFINITIES

   De volgende begrippen in hoofdletters hebben de hieronder weergegeven betekenis:

   1. “MessageBird Services” is the combination of all single products and services (as defined in 2.2) MessageBird possibly offers to the Customer.
      
   2. means:
      • MessageBird API REST
      • MessageBird API Voice
      • MessageBird Dashboard
      • MessageBird Mail to SMS service
      • MessageBird SMPP Platform (Short Message Peer-to-Peer)
   3. “Unavailable Time” means one or more of the MessageBird Services are not available for use according to third party performance and monitoring services contracted by MessageBird at its sole discretion (the “Monitoring Service”). The Monitoring Service reports of availability are currently available at status.messagebird.com; provided that service issues or outages relating to any Exclusions (defined below) shall not be deemed as Unavailable Time. Unavailable Time is calculated per Single Service as defined in 2.2 and not a combined total or average.
   4. “Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of continuous 5 minute periods during the Service Month in which a MessageBird Single Service was in a state of “Unavailable Time” as identified by Monitoring Service.

   5. “Service Credit” is a credit that MessageBird, at its sole discretion and after confirming the nature and accuracy of the Unavailable Time, may credit back to an eligible Customer account, calculated as set forth below:

      1. Voor een kalendermaand waarin het Maandelijks Uptime Percentage van een MessageBird Afzonderlijk Apparaat niet voldoet aan het Maandelijks Uptime Percentage, crediteert MessageBird het account van de klant met een percentage van de factuur van die maand voor het niet voldoen aan het Maandelijks Uptime Percentage, zoals gedefinieerd in deze tabel.

3. KREDIETAANVRAAG EN BETALINGSPROCEDURES

   To apply for a Service Credit, the Customer must submit a ticket via dit formulier within 30 days of the month in which the Unavailable Time occurred. The ticket must include (i) “SLA Claim” as the subject of the ticket; (ii) the dates and times of the Unavailable Time for which you are requesting credit; and (iii) any applicable information that documents the claimed outage.
