If your attempts within one (1) minute to push information by calling Push API or through the management platform succeed in whole or in part, the Service shall be deemed available within such one (1) minute. The accumulated Service downtime so calculated in minutes within a Service Month is the Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes for such Service Month.
      1.4 Total Time within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes: the total number of days within such Service Month × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes).

      2.2 Service Availability Standard The Service Availability of the Service provided by Tencent Cloud will be no less than 99.9% (“Service Availability Standard”).

You cannot use the voucher to purchase other services of Tencent Cloud, nor should you give the voucher to a third party for consideration or for free.
      (2) If the Service fails to meet the Service Availability Standard in any Service Month, the amount of compensation will be calculated for such month independently, and the aggregate amount shall be no more than the applicable monthly service fee paid by you for such month (the monthly service fee referred herein shall exclude the portion deducted by a voucher or promotional credit, due to discounted service fee or otherwise deducted).

      99.9% > Av ≥ 99.0%
      10% of the monthly service fee

      20% of the monthly service fee

      (2) You shall apply for such compensation no later than the sixtieth day following the end of the applicable Service Month in which the Service fails to meet the Service Availability Standard. If you fail to make any application within such period, or make the application after such period, or make the application by any means other than that agreed herein, it shall be deemed that you have voluntarily waived your right to apply for such compensation and any other rights you may have against Tencent Cloud, in which case Tencent Cloud has the right to reject your application for compensation and not to make any compensation to you.
