Service Level Agreements
Coverage and Definitions
This VideoAPI.cloud Service Level Agreement (SLA) applies to you ("customer") if you have ordered the video or image encoding services from VideoAPI.cloud (the "Services") and your account is current (i.e., not past due) with VideoAPI.cloud: As used herein, the term "VideoAPI.cloud Availability" means the percentage of a particular month (based on 24-hour days for the number of days in the subject month) that the encoding service via api.videoapi.cloud is available for access by third parties via HTTP and HTTPS, as measured by VideoAPI.cloud.
Service Level Goal
The goal is to achieve 99.99% Service Availability for all customers. If the Service Availability is less than 99.99%, VideoAPI.cloud will issue a credit to customer in accordance with the following schedule, with the credit being calculated on the basis of the monthly service charge for the affected services.
