The Service Availability of this Service provided by Tencent Cloud will be no less than 95%.

In respect of this Service, if the Service Availability fails to meet the abovementioned 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 messages in a number corresponding to the compensation amount by Tencent Cloud.
