Service Level Agreement
Updated August 8, 2025
This Unbound Service Level Agreement “SLA” governs the use of the Services pursuant to the terms of the Unbound Terms of Service “ToS” or the Unbound Master Service Agreement “MSA” (references to either the “ToS” or “MSA” are considered the same) between Unbound. (“Unbound”, “us”, or “we”) and any user of the Services (“you”, “your”, or “Customer”). The aim of the SLA is to provide you with uninterrupted access to the purchased Service 99.999% of the time. In the event that the Monthly Uptime of the Product or Unbound API is less than 99.999%, you will be eligible for a Service Credit. To the extent you have more than one Unbound account, this SLA applies to each Unbound account individually. Except as otherwise set forth in this SLA, this SLA is subject to the terms of the ToS and capitalized terms not otherwise defined will have the meaning specified in the ToS.
Unbound reserves the right to make reasonable modifications to this SLA at any time by emailing a new version of this document to you. Revisions are effective immediately.
1. Definitions
“Monthly Uptime Percentage” means the difference between 99.999% and the percentage of Unavailable Time for the applicable month. “Service Credit” means a dollar credit, equal to 1x your Usage Rates charges in the month in which the Unavailable Time occurred, that Unbound will credit back to an eligible Unbound account. No cash equivalent. “Scheduled Maintenance” means any maintenance performed by Unbound or its partners. “Unavailable Time” means any time when the Unbound Platform for the applicable Product is not available for use, as measured in continuous 5-minute increments measured from the time Service unavailability is reported to Unbound to the time that Services availability is restored. Unavailable Time does not include any unavailability resulting from any Excused Outages (as defined below).
2. Service Commitment
Unbound will make the Unbound Platform available 99.999% of the time each month. If Unbound’s Monthly Uptime Percentage is below 99.999% in a given calendar month, then you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described in Section 4 below. Availability of the Unbound Platform is measured by the third-party performance and monitoring services contracted by Unbound (the “Monitoring Service”). The Monitoring Service reports of availability are currently available at http://status.unbound.cx. Unbound may adjust the measure of availability by the Monitoring Service to account for any Excused Outages applicable to such period. Only Unbound’s measurements shall be used to calculate Service Credits.
3. Scheduled Maintenance
Scheduled maintenance will not normally result in service interruption. If scheduled maintenance requires service interruption, Unbound will aim to (i) provide Customer thirty (30) days’ prior written notice, (ii) work with Customer to minimize such interruptions and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to perform such maintenance between midnight and 6:00 AM local time for the data region being affected. In the case of emergency maintenance, Unbound will attempt to provide Customers with twenty-four (24) hours’ prior notice. Notice of Scheduled Maintenance will be provided to the Customer's designated point of contact by email. Customer agrees that it is Customer’s obligation to make sure Unbound has correct contact information for Scheduled Maintenance notification purposes.
4. Service Credit Request and Payment Procedures
To receive a Service Credit, you must first notify Unbound of an outage by opening a ticket at support@unbound.cx within 24 hours of the outage and then submit a request for Service Credits to Unbound as described in this Section 4. To be eligible to receive a Service Credit you must make the submission to Unbound Customer Support within fifteen (15) days from the time you become eligible to receive the applicable Service Credit and Unbound must verify that the outage was the result of Unavailable Time and not an Excused Outage. Such submission must include: (a) “SLA Service Credit Claim” as the subject; (b) the dates and times of Unavailable Time for which a Service Credit is being claimed; (c) any documentation relevant to the applicable outage, (d) the applicable ticket number. Each Service Credit will be applied to future amounts payable by you in connection with the applicable Unbound product. Customer accounts in payment arrears, Customers not using the latest updated version of Unbound, or Customers who have failed to perform or are otherwise in default under the Agreement, are ineligible to receive Service Credits. No refunds or cash value will be given. Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other Unbound account.
5. Excused Outages
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Unavailable Time shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to any unavailability of the Unbound Platform or any other Unbound Platform performance issues, that (a) are caused by factors outside of Unbound’s reasonable control, including, without limitation, any Force Majeure Event, telecommunications provider-related problems or issues, or Internet access or related problems occurring beyond the point in the network where Unbound maintains access and control over the Unbound Services; (b) result from any actions or inactions of you or any third party (other than Unbound’s agents and subcontractors); (c) result from any Customer application(s), equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software or other technology (except or equipment within Unbound’s direct control) or facilities including the Customer’s premise wiring; (d) power failures, service interruptions by Customer's broadband provider and/or Internet Service Provider, service interruptions by third party service providers and failings of the public internet, Customer's components or PSTN; (e) occurs during Scheduled Maintenance; (f) problems or issues related to limited or developer pre-release or ‘beta testing’ of a feature or product that is not otherwise generally available Unbound features or products, (g) interruptions from Customer’s use of Services in violation of the Acceptable Use Policy, (h) interruptions resulting from a disconnect for non-payment, (i) interruptions during any period when Customer has released Services to Unbound for maintenance or rearrangement purpose, or for the installation of an Unbound service order; and/or (j) interruptions during any period when Customer elects not to release the Services(s) for testing and/or repair and continues to use the Services on an impaired basis, (collectively, the “Excused Outages”).
6. Entire SLA Liability
This SLA constitutes Unbound’s entire liability to you and your sole and exclusive remedy with respect to Unbound’s failure to meet the Monthly Uptime Percentage. Failure to meet the Service Commitment is not a material breach of the Agreement.
