KADANZA SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT

‍

GENERAL

The Service Provider makes the Kadanza Web Application available. In order to keep Kadanza working, the Service Provider maintains a Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) policy which is part of these Terms of Use.

This SLA only applies to the Kadanza Shared Cloud solution.

‍

EXCLUSIONS

This SLA has been drawn up in a spirit of partnership. The Service Provider will always do everything in its power to solve each problem in a good time.

However, this SLA does not apply in circumstances which can reasonably be said to be beyond the Service Provider's control (e.g. because of floods, war or force majeure). This SLA does not apply if the Customer violates the Terms of Use for any reason whatsoever (e.g. late payment of fees).

‍

AVAILABILITY

Availability indicates that Kadanza is both available and measurable. Kadanza guarantees an availability of 99.9% for Kadanza.

If the Service Provider cannot offer Kadanza in accordance with the applicable Service Level (“Shortcoming of the Service”), the Customer will be eligible for compensation (“Service Credits”). In order to claim a Service Credit, the Customer must notify the Service Provider within 7 calendar days of the alleged Defect of the Service and provide a full description of the disruption.

Level of Service and Service Credits are calculated on a monthly basis.

‍

LEVEL OF SERVICE

Level of Service are calculated as follows:

A / (T - S) * 100

where:

A = the actual availability of Kadanza in minutes per month, as measured by the Service Provider
T = the total number of minutes within the month in question
S = the total number of minutes of any scheduled outage duration within the month in question

The planned duration of the disruption is the duration of the disruption due to the maintenance of Kadanza, announced at least 24 hours in advance.

‍

SERVICE CREDITS

Service Credits for Level of Service are calculated as follows:

(L - P) * Q

where:

L = the agreed percentage of availability
P = the actual percentage of availability as calculated above
Q = the monthly fee for Kadanza

The total amount of the Service Credits for a calendar month applies only to the monthly fees for the standard Kadanza products (Brand Manager, Asset Manager and Layout Manager) and may not exceed 50% of the monthly fee for the standard Kadanza products.

‍

HELPDESK

De Kadanza Helpdesk can be contacted via support@kadanza.com.

‍

SUPPORT REQUESTS

Support requests are defined in 3 types of customer queries:

Technical questions relate to a specific bug or other form of non-functioning of Kadanza. They also include any security or back-up deficiencies. If necessary, the Service Provider will reply within the time limit set out in the Response Times.

User questions are those relating to cases where the system does not speak for itself. The Service Provider does its best to prevent these cases and to keep them to an absolute minimum.

Content questions relate to the presence (or lack of presence) of the content itself. The Customer bears the main responsibility for uploading and structuring the content, and as such is responsible for providing primary support for these questions.

The Kadanza Helpdesk provides support for technical questions, unless these Terms of Use between Customer and the Service Provider specifically provide for user questions or content questions.

‍

PROCESSING TIMES

Processing times will be measured from the moment the Customer submits a support request via the Kadanza Helpdesk. Response times only apply during office hours on working days from 9.00 a.m. to 5.00 p.m. (GMT+1), unless the Agreement between the Customer and the Service Provider specifically provides for support outside office hours.

The following Processing times only apply to technical questions as defined above:

- Response time: 8 hours
- Workaround time: 12 hours during support hours
- Resolution time: 4 continuous business days during support hours‍

Major - P2: one or more critical elements of the application no longer respond or respond extremely slowly.

‍

11. NO TRANSFER OF RIGHTS

The Service Provider does not acquire any rights (including rights of retention) to the personal data processed pursuant to the Agreement and the Terms of Use.

During this period, this DPA can only be terminated by mutual agreement between the Parties.
‍

13. SECURITY MEASURES‍

Description of the technical and organizational security measures implemented by the Service Provider:

The Service Provider must implement the measures described in this paragraph 13, provided that the measures contribute or may contribute directly or indirectly to the protection of personal data pursuant to the execution of the Quote, the Terms of Use and other conditions applicable between the Parties with regard to data processing. If the Service Provider believes that a measure is not necessary for the execution of the Quote concerned, he must justify this and conclude terms and conditions with the Customer on the basis of an individual case.

The technical and organizational measures are subject to technical progress and development. In this context, the Service Provider may carry out alternative appropriate measures. The level of security must be in line with best practice in the sector and must not be lower than the measures set out therein. All changes must be documented and agreed with the Customer. In cases of doubt, the Service Provider must prove that the alternative measures aim at the same protection and provide a comparable level of protection.

The Service Provider has taken the following security measures in relation to Kadanza:
