1. Terms and Definitions
1.1 Data Subscription Service
Refers to the unified incremental data subscription services provided by Tencent Cloud to you with Tencent Cloud database as the core through the data subscription service in the Data Transmission Service products, including the data subscription service, data subscription SDK, etc. The specific content of the Service is subject to the service you have purchased and the service provided by Tencent Cloud. You can subscribe to the incremental data of Tencent Cloud database through the Service and consume it in the real time to achieve the application of incremental data by downstream systems.
1.2 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 7, there will be four (4) Service Months (the first Service Month from March 7 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 6). The Service Availability will be calculated separately for each Service Month.
1.3 Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes within a Service Month
If you continuously fail to consume all information through the Data Subscription SDK of the Service and the failure state lasts for more than 5 minutes, the minutes in the failure state will be counted as Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes within a Service Month (less than 1 minute will be counted as 1 minute). For example, if the failure status lasts for 6 minutes and 01 seconds, Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes is calculated as 7 minutes. The sum of Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes in a Service Month is Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes within a Service Month.
1.4 Total Number of Minutes within a Service Month
Total Number of Minutes within a Service Month = the total number of days of the Service Month × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes).
1.5 Monthly Service Fee
Refers to the total service fee you pay for a single Data Subscription Service in a Service Month, excluding the amount you have purchased but not yet consumed. If you pay for several Service Months at once, the Monthly Service Fee will be apportioned based on the number of Service Months purchased.
2. Service Availability
2.1 Calculation of Service Availability
Service Availability shall be calculated on the basis of a single instance as follows:
Service Availability = (1 - Service Downtime Calculated in Minutes within a Service Month of a single instance / Total Number of Minutes within a Service Month of a single instance) × 100%
The single instance refers to a data subscription instance created through the Tencent Cloud Data Subscription console.
2.2 Service Availability Standard
The Service Availability of the Service provided by Tencent Cloud shall be no less than 99.95% (“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 Article 3 of this Agreement.

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.
