Restrictions
Credits shall not be provided to you in the event that you have no web site availability resulting from (i) scheduled maintenance, (ii) your behaviour or the performance or failure of your equipment, programs or applications, or (iii) circumstances beyond Education host Ltd’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, acts of any governmental body, war, insurrection, sabotage, embargo, fire, flood, strike or other labor disturbance, interruption of or delay in transportation, DDoS attacks (distributed denial-of-service), unavailability of interruption or delay in telecommunications or third party services (including DNS propagation), failure of third party software or hardware or inability to obtain raw materials, supplies, or power used in or equipment needed for provision of your Web Site.
Limitations
Online problems occur continuously. There might come a time when you cannot access your website or any other service. This is not necessarily due to Education host Ltd. Perhaps your ISP is experiencing technical difficulties, or there might be a routing problem between your ISP and the data center utilised and maintained by Education host Ltd, making communication difficult or impossible. We cannot bear the responsibility of such problems. Our monitoring agents determine the uptime of our service, and not any one client’s experience.
Dedicated Server Restore
Education host Ltd is not responsible for the restoration of data to server. We strongly recommend that your purchase backup options for your server, and keep copies of your data off-site with you for emergency purposes. If hardware failure and data loss occur, you the client, are responsible for data restoration. Education host Ltd shall not be liable for loss of data under any circumstance.
Hardware Replacement
Hardware replacement will occur within 1-8 hours of the reported problem, Education host Ltd will refund 5% of the monthly fee per additional 8 hours of down time (up to 100% of customer’s monthly fee). In order to reduce replacement hardware downtime, we keep a certain quantity of pre-built systems on hand to swap out hard disks so that your server can be back up in the shortest amount of time. For hard disk failures, we keep pre-installed drives with our standard partitioning for immediate deployment. In order to request a SLA hardware violation credit, you must within 10 days of reported violation contact our sales department via our helpdesk. SLA violations will be reviewed by our personnel Monday – Friday 9AM to 5PM GMT. *Hardware SLA violations do not cover network violation*
