1.2 Service Month
“Service Month” refers to each natural month included in the service term of the Services you purchase. For example, if you purchase the Services for three months, and the date of service opening is March 17, then four Service Months are included, of which the first Service Month refers to March 17 to March 31, the second Service Month refers to April 1 to April 30, the third Service Month refers to May 1 to May 31, and the fourth Service Month refers to June 1 to June 16. Service Availability will be accounted separately for each Service Month.

If all customer attempts to establish a connection with the TDSQL-C MySQL instance or continuous attempts to read and write requests fail within a minute, and this status lasts for 1 minute or more, the cloud database instance service is deemed unavailable within that minute.
1.4 Unavailability Minutes for a Single Instance
Unavailability Minutes for a single instance = Instance unavailability resolution moment - Instance unavailability start moment. Unavailable time are calculated in minutes. Unavailability Minutes exceeding 1 minute but less than 1 minute are calculated as 1 minute. For example, if the Unavailability Minutes are 1 minute and 1 second, they are calculated as 2 minutes. If the time to restore the business failure is less than 1 minute (that is, the instance unavailability does not last more than 1 minute), it is not counted in the Unavailability Minutes.
1.5 Unavailability Minutes within a Service Month for a Single Instance
“Unavailability Minutes within a Service Month” refers to the sum of the Unavailability Minutes in the Service Month.
1.6 Total Minutes within the Service Month
“Total Minutes within the Service Month” is counted as the total number of days within the Service Month × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes).
1.7 Monthly Service Fee
“Monthly Service Fee” refers to the total amount of service fee consumed by you for the a single instance in a Service Month, excluding the portion that has been purchased but not yet consumed. If you pay for multiple months of service fees at one time, the Monthly Service Fee will be calculated based on the number of months purchased. The Monthly Service Fee does not include fees deducted by vouchers, coupons, service fee reductions, etc.
2. SERVICE GUARANTEE INDICATORS
2.1 Service Availability
“Service Availability” is calculated based on a single instance as follows: Service availability = (1 - Unavailability Minutes for a Single Instance within a Service Month / Total Minutes for a Single Instance within the Service Month) * 100%
2.2 Service Indicator Standard
The Service Availability of the Services provided by Tencent Cloud shall not be less than 99.99% (the “Service Indicator Standard”). If the Service Indicator Standard is not met (excluding cases covered by disclaimers), you shall be entitled to compensation in accordance with Article 3 of this Agreement.
3. COMPENSATION PLAN
For the Services, if the Service Availability is lower than the Service Indicator Standard, you shall be entitled to compensation as per the following terms:
3.1 Compensation Standards
(1) Compensation will be provided in the form of vouchers issued by Tencent Cloud, and you must comply with vouchers usage rules (including usage period, etc., subject to the voucher-related rules published on the website of Tencent Cloud). The vouchers issued cannot be exchanged for cash, or be accompanied by invoices. Such vouchers can only be used to purchase the Services through your corresponding Tencent Cloud account, and cannot be used to purchase other services provided by Tencent Cloud. The vouchers cannot be transferred or gifted, etc. Once the above behavior is discovered, Tencent Cloud has the right to suspend or terminate the provision of the Services to you and recover from you the losses caused to Tencent Cloud due to the illegal use of vouchers. You shall bear the losses caused by this.
(2) If the Service Indicator Standard is not met in a Service Month, the compensation will be calculated separately according to the corresponding Service Month, and the total amount of compensation shall not exceed the corresponding Monthly Service Fee paid by you for the Services for the respective month (excluding fees offset by vouchers, coupons, service fee deductions, etc.).
Service Availability for the Service Month | Compensation Voucher Amount |
Less than 99.99% but equal to or higher than 99% | 15% of Monthly Service Fee |
Less than 99% but equal to or higher than 95% | 30% of Monthly Service Fee |
Less than 95% | 100% of Monthly Service Fee |
3.2 Time Limit for Claims
(1) If the Service Indicator Standard is not met in a Service Month, you may claim for compensation only through the work order system of your corresponding account after the fifth (5th) business day of the month following the end of the corresponding Service Month in which the Service Indicator Standard is not met. Tencent Cloud will conduct verification after you have filed the claim for compensation. In case of a dispute between the parties regarding the calculation of the Service Availability in the Service Month, both parties agree that Tencent Cloud’s backend records shall ultimately prevail.
(2) The latest deadline for you to file a claim for compensation shall not exceed sixty (60) calendar days after the end of the corresponding Service Month that the Service Indicator Standard is not met. If you fail to file a claim for compensation within the aforesaid period, or file a claim after the aforesaid period, or file a claim in a manner other than that agreed in this Agreement, it shall be deemed that you have automatically waived your right to demand compensation and any other claims against Tencent Cloud, and Tencent Cloud reserves the right to decline your claim for compensation and shall not be liable for any compensation or indemnification to you.

4.5 Connection or read/write failure or data loss caused by vector database instance arrears, incorrect password, improper security group configuration, different network types, or disk overuse.
4.6 Unavailability caused by loss or leakage of data, passwords, etc. due to improper maintenance or confidentiality by yourself.

4.9 Unavailability or failure to meet the Service Indicator Standard not attributed to Tencent Cloud.
4.10 The circumstances described in relevant laws and regulations, related agreements, applicable rules, or relevant rules and instructions separately issued by Tencent Cloud that Tencent Cloud can exempt from any liability or release of compensation liability, etc.

You can refer to the relevant contents in the latest version on the website of Tencent Cloud.
