IHR's Service Level Agreement (SLA) for Website Hosting

IHR's goal is to achieve 100% Web site availability for all customers. The SLA serves to provide you confidence and assurance that we stand behind our Hosting/Promotion packages.

In the event that the IHR server falls below 99.9% Web site availability, you may contact IHR to request a credit per the terms and conditions of this SLA. Complete SLA terms and conditions follow.

As used herein, the term "Web Site Availability" means the percentage of a particular month (based on 24-hour days for the number of days in the subject month) that the content of customer's Web site is available for access by third parties through HTTP and HTTPS, as measured by IHR.

4. Credit Request and Payment Procedures

To request a credit for IHR Services, in connection with this SLA, the Customer must include the dates and times of the unavailability of Customer's Web site. The request must be received by IHR within ten (10) business days after the Customer's Web Site was not available. If the unavailability is confirmed by IHR, credits will be applied within two billing cycles after IHR's receipt 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 Hosting/Promotion package fee paid by customer for such month for the affected Services.

Credits are customer's sole and exclusive remedy with respect to any failure or deficiency in the Web Site Availability of customer's Web site.
