Last Updated: December 2023

  1. BLINK SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT
  2. Terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning set out in the Customer’s Blink Order Form or Blink T&Cs. This Service Level Agreement shall only apply where the Customer is on an Enterprise Plan, as indicated on the relevant Order Form or as agreed in writing between the parties.
  3. 1. Service Level Commitment. Blink will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Blink Apps and service for the Blink Apps (including as set out in the Service Description) Available at least 99.5% of the time over the course of a month measured from the Commencement Date (each a “Month”), except for Excluded Downtime as provided below. Monthly Availability will be calculated as follows: (Total number of minutes in the Month – Total number of minutes of Downtime in that Month) / (Total number of minutes in the Month – Total number of minutes of Excluded Downtime in that Month) x 100
  4. 2. Service Credits. If the Monthly Availability for any Month drops below the Service Level Commitment, Customer shall be eligible to request service credits at a rate of 2% of the monthly Subscription Fees for that Month (calculated on a pro rata basis) and this shall be Customer’s exclusive remedy for non-compliance with this Service Level Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Customer is only eligible for service credits once for a particular instance of Downtime.
  5. 3. Downtime. Is, for a Customer, a period of time during which the user interface for one or more of the Blink Apps used by Customer has more than a 5% Authorised User error rate. Downtime is measured based on server side error rate.
