This Visitor Aware Service Level Agreement (this “SLA”) is a policy governing the use of the Included Services (listed below) and applies separately to each account using the Included Services. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the Visitor Aware Customer Agreement or other agreement with us governing your use of our Services (the “Agreement”), the terms and conditions of this SLA apply, but only to the extent of such conflict. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.


Included Services:

  • Visitor Aware Administration Portal

  • Visitor Aware Kiosk Application API


General Service Commitment

Visitor Aware will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Included Services each available for each customer with a Monthly Uptime Percentage of at least 99.99%, excluding maintenance, in each case during any monthly billing cycle (the “Service Commitment”). In the event any of the Included Services do not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below. 


Service Credits

Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges paid by you (excluding one-time payments such as payments made for Sexual Predator or background checks if applicable) for the individual Included Service for the monthly billing cycle in which the Unavailability occurred in accordance with the schedule below.

We will apply any Service Credits only against future payments for the applicable Included Service otherwise due from you. At our discretion, we may issue the Service Credit to the credit card you used to pay for the billing cycle in which the Unavailability occurred. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from Visitor Aware. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than one dollar ($1 USD). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. 


Credit Request and Payment Procedures

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a ticket in the Visitor Aware Support Center. To be eligible, the credit request must be received by us by the end of the second billing cycle after which the incident occurred and must include:


1. the words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;


2. the dates and times of each Unavailability incident that you are claiming; and


4. your request logs that document the errors and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).


If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the Service Commitment, then we will issue the Service Credit to you within one billing cycle following the month in which your request is confirmed by us. Your failure to provide the request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, this SLA sets forth your sole and exclusive remedies, and Visitor Aware’s sole and exclusive obligations, for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide the Included Services. 


Visitor Aware SLA Exclusions

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination an Included Service, or any other Included Service performance issues: (i) caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of the applicable Included Service; (ii) that resulted from any actions or inactions of you or any third party; (ii) that result from your equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software or other technology (other than third party equipment within our direct control); or (iii) arising from our suspension or termination of your right to use the applicable Included Service in accordance with the Agreement (collectively, the “Visitor Aware SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our Monthly Uptime Percentage calculation, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.
