9.6.   This clause 9 shall survive termination of this EULA, however arising.

10.     LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

10.1.   You acknowledge that the App has not been developed to meet your individual requirements, and that it is therefore your responsibility to ensure that the facilities and functions of the App as described in the applicable documentation meet your requirements.

(b)      all warranties, representations, conditions and all other terms of any kind whatsoever implied by statute or common law are, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, excluded from this EULA; and

10.6.   Subject to clause 10.4 and excluding any provisions in this EULA where an indemnity is provided by either party:

(a)      neither party will be liable to the other party for loss of profits, loss of business, depletion of goodwill and/or similar losses, loss of anticipated savings, loss of goods, loss of contract, loss of use, loss or corruption of data or information or any special, unforeseeable loss (i.e. indirect and consequential loss) or pure economic loss, costs, damages, charges or expenses. For the avoidance of doubt, loss or damage is unforeseeable if either it is not obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the contract was made, both we and you did not know that it might happen; and

(b)      each party’s total liability to each other party in contract, tort (including negligence or breach of statutory duty), misrepresentation, restitution or otherwise arising under or in connection with this EULA will be limited to:

11.6.   If, for whatever reason, our relationship with a third party service or data provider is restricted, suspended or terminated which affects our ability to provide the App, the Services or the Service Data, we will notify you in writing and use reasonable endeavours to re-commence the App, the Services and the provision of the Service Data as soon as possible.

SCHEDULE 1: SERVICE LEVELS

1.     SUPPORT SERVICE

1.1.   Safepoint’s Support Services are available to the Client as follows (all times shown are local UK time) (“Support Service Hours”): 

1.1.1.      Standard: 9am - 5pm, Business Days

1.1.2.      GuardianPlus: 8am - 8pm, Business Days

1.1.3.      Enterprise: 8am - 8pm, Mon - Sun

Whether the Client is entitled to Standard, GuardianPlus or Enterprise Support Services is specified in clause 4. If the Client has not selected or purchased a particular service level they shall be deemed to be entitled to the Standard level of Support Services. 

1.2.   The Support Services can be accessed via telephone, email or via a dedicated support website at https://support.safepointapp.com. A notification via any of these methods is a “Support Request”.

1.3.   Safepoint shall use reasonable endeavours to provide the Services with 99% uptime (excluding planned maintenance where Safepoint has provided the Client with reasonable advance notice). Unplanned service incidents or outages are assessed and graded by severity using the following definitions:

Severity
Fault Incident category
Description
Example
Level 1
Critical
The problem has halted the Services or has had a significant impact on the Services.
Safepoint web portal not available.
Level 2
High
The problem is a partial failure of the specific Services provided to the Client.
SMS alerts not functioning.
Level 3
Medium
The issue has limited the functionality of the Services, although is not adversely affecting the Client’s business operations or End User experience.
Cannot update user details.
Level 4
Low
The issue is considered a system inconvenience.
Spelling mistake in copy used within the web portal.

1.4.   For each severity of incident, Safepoint aims to resolve the incident within the following timescales (“Service Levels”). For each level, a time and point of escalation is identified:

Incident Level
1
2
3
4
Maximum response times for Support Requests
4 hrs
6 hrs
1 days
10 days
Target fix times for Support Requests
1 hr
2 hrs
1 days
20 days

For the purposes of this paragraph 1.4:

1.4.1.   subject to paragraph 1.4.2, the stated response times are measured from the time a Support Request is submitted by the Client;

1.4.2.   if a support request is submitted by the Client outside of the Support Service Hours it shall be deemed received when the Support Service opens again; and

1.4.3.   references to hours or days are to hours and days within the Support Service Hours. By way of example:

a Support Request notifying a Level 1 severity incident reported at 3pm on a Business Day, requires a response within four hours, being:

  • 11am on the next Business Day for Standard service level clients; and

  • 7pm on the same Business Day for GuardianPlus and Enterprise service level clients;

a Support Request notifying a Level 2 severity incident reported at 5pm on a Friday which is a Business Day, requires a response within six hours, being:

  • 2pm on the next Business Day for Standard service level clients;

  • 11am on the next Business Day for GuardianPlus service level clients;

  • 11am on the following day (i.e. Saturday) for Enterprise service level clients; and

a Support Request notifying a Level 3 severity incident reported at 9pm on a Saturday, requires a response within one day, being:

  • 9am on the second Business Day for Standard service level clients;

  • 8am on the second Business Day for GuardianPlus service level clients; and

  • 8am on the following Monday for Enterprise service level clients;

2.     SERVICE CREDITS 

2.1.   Safepoint shall provide the Client with service credits in the event of any failure to meet the Level 1 and Level 2 Service Levels following notification of a Support Request. Safepoint shall provide service credits to the Client calculated on a points-based system as follows: (a) each Level 1 fault incident accumulates 5 points; and (b) each Level 2 fault incident accumulates 2 points.

2.2.   The total number of points will be aggregated on a monthly basis and the following service credits will be applied to the Client’s account if the following level of points have been accumulated:

Points accumulated in a month
Standard
GuardianPlus
Enterprise
10-15
5%
10%
15%
16-19
10%
15%
20%
20+
15%
20%
25%

% figures are references to a reduction of the fees due in respect of that month under this EULA. 

2.3.   The first month to be assessed in respect of the Service Levels will commence upon execution of this EULA. The points total will revert to zero at the start of each measured month.

2.4.   The provision of service credits are intended to be a reduction in the fees payable by the Client to reflect the reduced value of the relevant Safepoint Services, they are not intended to compensate for any losses suffered. Notwithstanding, where service credits are provided by Safepoint to the Client, this shall be the Client’s and End User’s sole and exclusive remedy in respect of that fault incident.
