In order to use the Tencent Cloud Cloud Application Rendering Service (the “Service”), you shall read and comply with this Tencent Cloud Cloud Application Rendering Service Level Agreement (this “Agreement”, or this “SLA”) and the Tencent Cloud Service Agreement. This Agreement contains, among others, the terms and definitions of the Service, Service Availability and Service Uptime Metrics, compensation plan and disclaimer of liabilities. Please carefully read and fully understand each and every provision hereof, and the provisions restricting or disclaiming certain liabilities, or otherwise related to your material rights and interests, are in bold font or underlined or otherwise brought to your special attention.
Please do not purchase the Service unless and until you have fully read, and completely understood and accepted all the terms hereof. By clicking “Agree”/ “Next”, or by purchasing or using the Service, or by otherwise accepting this Agreement, whether express or implied, you are deemed to have read, and agreed to be bound by, this Agreement. This Agreement shall then have legal effect on both you and Tencent Cloud, constituting a binding legal document on both parties. For the purposes of these Terms of Service, “Tencent Cloud” refers to the applicable Tencent entity as set forth in the Tencent Cloud Service Agreement.
1. Terms and Definitions
1.1 Cloud Application Rendering, CAR
Refers to the real-time rendering of your application, software, platform and any related contents deployed on the Cloud Application Rendering concurrency, where “concurrency” means a collection of a series of virtual computing resources, including CPU, bandwidth, disk, GPU, etc. The real-time rendering operation is completed on the server-side of Cloud Application Rendering concurrency, and Tencent Cloud will encode the rendered results into audio and video streams for transmission to the user's device through the network, and the device transmits the user's operation information to the cloud server and the application for real-time interaction.
1.2 CAR Concurrencies
If you purchase N CAR concurrencies, it means the Service will contain N cloud application rendering concurrencies. The Service Availability (as defined below) is calculated by CAR concurrencies.
1.3 Total Number of Minutes within Service Month(s)
Total Number of Minutes within Service Month(s) = the total number of days of the Service Month(s) × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes).
1.4 Service Unavailability
When the Service is in a non-maintenance state, but the access to the Service with any IP address in both directions (outgoing/incoming) by UDP protocol fails, and such downtime lasts for more than one minute, the Service is deemed as unavailable (“Service Unavailability”) within such minute.
1.5 Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes
Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes = the time the Service Unavailability is fixed – the time the Service Unavailability starts.
The service downtime is calculated in minutes. If the service failure is back to normal within one minute, i.e., if the duration of Service Unavailability of the CAR concurrencies does not exceed one minute, such duration is not counted as Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes. If the duration of Service Unavailability is longer than one minute but less than two minutes, Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes in such duration would be one minute. For example, if the service downtime lasts for one minute and one second, the Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes would be one minute.
1.6 Service Month(s)
Service Month(s) refers to the calendar month(s) within the term of the Service purchased by you. For example, if you purchase the Service for a term of three months starting from March 17, there will be four (4) Service Months (the first Service Month from March 17 to March 31, the second from April 1 to April 30, the third from May 1 to May 31, and the fourth from June 1 to June 16). The Service Availability will be calculated separately for each Service Month.
1.7 Monthly Service Fee
The Monthly Service Fee refers to the accumulated service fee you pay for the Service within a Service Month, excluding the portion that has been purchased but not consumed yet, and the fees deducted with vouchers, coupons, service fee reductions, etc.
2. Service Availability
2.1 Calculation of Service Availability
Service Availability = (Total Number of Minutes within a Service Month - Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes) / Total Number of Minutes within a Service Month × 100%.
2.2 Service Availability Standard
The Service Availability for the Service shall be no less than 99% (“Service Availability Standard”). If the Service fails to meet the Service Availability Standard (except under circumstances as set forth in the Disclaimer of Liabilities), you may claim compensation in accordance with Section 3 of this Agreement.
Assuming that a month contains 30 days, the Total Number of Minutes within such Service Month is 43,200 minutes (=30 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes), the available time shall be no less than 42,768 minutes (=30 days × 24 hours × 60 minutes × 99%), which means the Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes shall be less than 432 minutes (=43,200 – 42,768).
3. Compensation Plan
In respect of the Service, if the Service fails to meet the Service Availability Standard, you will be entitled to compensations in accordance with the following terms:
3.1 Standards of Compensation
(1) Compensations will be made in the form of voucher by Tencent Cloud, and you should use the voucher by abiding the voucher usage rules (including usage period, etc., subject to the voucher usage rules published on Tencent Cloud official website). Such voucher cannot be converted into cash, and no invoice will be issued with respect thereof. The voucher may only be used to purchase the Service by using your Tencent Cloud account, and 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 Availability Standard is not met for any Service Month, the amount of compensation will be calculated for each such Service Month independently, and the aggregate amount shall be no more than the Monthly Service Fee you pay for the Service in the Service Month in which the Service Availability fails to meet the Service Availability Standard (the Monthly Service Fee referred to herein shall exclude the portion deducted by vouchers, coupons, service fee reduction or exemption, etc.).
Service Availability in a Service Month Value of Compensational Voucher
Less than 99% but is or higher than 97%: Compensation is 5% of the Monthly Service Fee
Less than 97% but is or higher than 95%: Compensation is 10% of the Monthly Service Fee
Less than 95%:Conpensation is 20% of the Monthly Service Fee
3.2 Time Limit for Compensation Application
(1) If the Service Availability in a Service Month fails to meet the Service Availability standard, you may apply for compensation only through the Tencent Cloud ticket system under your relevant account after the fifth (5th) business day of the month immediately following such Service Month. Tencent Cloud will verify and ascertain your application upon receipt of such application. If there is any dispute over the calculation of the Service Availability for a Service Month, both parties agree that the back-end record of Tencent Cloud shall prevail.
(2) You shall apply for compensation no later than the sixtieth (60th) calendar day following the end of the applicable Service Month in which the Service Availability fails to meet the abovementioned 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.
