Amazon Key Management Service Level Agreement for Amazon Web Services (Beijing Region)

This Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) for Amazon Key Management Service is a policy governing the use of Amazon Key Management Service (“Amazon KMS”) and applies separately to each account using Amazon KMS. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the Amazon Web Services Customer Agreement with Sinnet 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.

Service Commitment

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to make Amazon KMS available with the applicable Monthly Uptime Percentage during any monthly billing cycle (the “Service Commitment”). In the event Amazon KMS does 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 for Amazon KMS for the billing cycle in which the error occurred in accordance with the schedule below.

 

 

We will apply any Service Credits only against future Amazon KMS payments otherwise due from you. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from us. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than one Renminbi (¥ 1 Renminbi). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide Amazon KMS is the receipt of a Service Credit (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.

Credit Request and Payment Procedures

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a case in the Amazon Web Services 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 incident of non-zero Error Rates that you are claiming; and
3. 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 applicable to the month of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the applicable 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.

Amazon KMS SLA Exclusions

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of Amazon KMS, or any other Amazon KMS 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 Amazon KMS; (ii) that result from any actions or inactions of you or any third party; (iii) 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 (iv) arising from our suspension and termination of your right to use Amazon KMS in accordance with the Agreement (collectively, the “Amazon KMS SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our calculation of the Error Rate, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.

Definitions

• “Error Rate” means: (i) the total number of internal server errors returned by Amazon KMS as error status “InternalError” or “ServiceUnavailable” divided by (ii) the total number of requests for the applicable request type during that five minute interval. We will calculate the Error Rate for each Amazon KMS account as a percentage for each five minute interval in the monthly billing cycle. The calculation of the number of internal server errors will not include errors that arise directly or indirectly as a result of any of the Amazon KMS SLA Exclusions.
• “Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the average of the Error Rates from each five minute interval in the monthly billing cycle.
• “Service Credit” means a Renminbi credit, calculated as set forth above, that we may credit back to an eligible Amazon SKMS account.
