1. General. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Epom agrees to provide the following maintenance and support services to Client. Any additional maintenance support requested by Client during the term of this Agreement shall be subject to a separate written agreement between Epom and Client. Epom will make the Software available for Client access and use over the Internet 24 hours per day, 7 days per week except for periods of scheduled maintenance and network access failures. Scheduled maintenance may occur weekly, only on weekends, or as otherwise coordinated with Client.
2. Technical Support. All support cases should be initiated through the Epom web interface, by email to support@Epom.com, or chat support interface. Epom will assign a Case ID to each request. Technical assistance and consultations can be provided by Technical Support representatives by the means of online audio and video appointments. Client and Sales Manager should preliminary negotiate the appointment agenda, payment terms, and schedule the appointment within 1-2 business days after the initial appointment request.
3. Data Back-up. Epom agrees to a complete nightly back-up of Client's data and to keep that information available to the Client for a period of one year. Raw logs are backed up for 1 month. Epom follows the commercially reasonable practice of storing back-ups offsite from the Epom Servers location.
4. Interruption Notification. In the event of unscheduled Service interruption of ad serving (delivery of ads on web pages), Epom will notify Client via e-mail within two (2) hours of problem identification and such notice will included an estimated time of Service restoration. Once the interruption is resolved and support is restored, Epom shall provide an immediate follow-up notice via e-mail to Client, but in no event longer than two (2) hours thereafter, explaining the reason for the interruption, the duration of the interruption and the corrective measures taken by Epom, if appropriate.
5. Level of Effort. Epom will use commercially reasonable efforts commensurate with the then applicable industry standards to provide Client maintenance and support under this Exhibit C and in a professional and workmanlike manner, but Epom cannot guarantee that every question or problem raised by Client will be resolved.
6. Trafficking and Reporting Interface. Epom will use commercially reasonable efforts commensurate with the then applicable industry standards to provide Client with uninterrupted access to its trafficking and reporting interfaces hosted on www.epom.com during GMT Time Zone business hours. Scheduled downtime for database tuning and new feature releases will be primarily outside GMT Time Zone business hours.
7. Security. Epom uses reasonable security measures to protect Client's data and accounts FROM unauthorized access. However, Client shall understand that use of Software involves transmission over other networks, that are not controlled or operated by Epom. Epom is not responsible for any data loss, alteration, interception and unauthorized access across such networks. Epom can not guarantee that security procedures will be error-free, secure and can not be defeated by third parties. Epom will use commercially reasonable measures for elimination of security vulnerabilities Epom becomes aware of.
