6. Servers Availability

The Company is fully committed to providing quality service to all customers. To support this commitment, the Company provides the following commitments and tools related to this Agreement.

i. WebServer
a. Availability:
The Company guarantees a 99.9% monthly average of scheduled availability of its WebServer. WebServer availability is defined as Customer's ability, via web browser, to retrieve the HTTP headers from a hosting server. The Company does not monitor availability of individual web sites but only monitors the server availability as a whole.
b. Monitoring :
To verify that the server is available, the Company will ping the HTTP service on the server by retrieving HTTP headers every 5 minutes with a 30second threshold. If an HTTP service does not respond, the server is considered non-operational and is automatically rebooted. If rebooting the server does not solve the problem, it is immediately escalated to the Support Center. In cases where two or more consecutive HTTP tests fail, the server downtime will be registered as the number of minutes between the first and the last failed tests. Downtime ofless than5 minutes indurationis not recorded. The Companycalculates server uptime based on this type of server monitoring.

ii. Network Availability
Network availability is defined as the Company's network's ability to pass incoming and outgoing TCP/IP traffic. A server's unavailability caused by network unavailability is not included in server uptime. Interruptions of service due to problems on the backbone or on the Customer's portion of the network are beyond the Company's control and are not included in uptime calculations. Interruptions of service caused by denial of service or similar attacks are beyond the Company's control and are not included in uptime calculations.

iii. Scheduled Maintenance
To guarantee optimal performance of the servers, the Company will perform maintenance on the servers on a routine basis. Such maintenance often requires taking Company servers offline. Company reserves two hours of server unavailability per month for maintenance purposes. This server unavailability is not included in server uptime calculations. The maintenance typically is performed during off-peak hours. Company provides Customer with advance notice of maintenance whenever possible.

7. Ownership of Data

All data (a) created by Customer and/or (b) stored by Customer within Company's applications and on the Company's servers are Customer's property and is for Customer's exclusive use unless access to such data is permitted by Customer. The Company shall allow access to such data by authorized Company personnel and shall provide access in compliance with the Company's Privacy Policy.
