Service Agreement

CUSTOMER MUST AGREE WITH THESE TERMS

IN ORDER TO UTILIZE OUR SERVICES

The following terms constitute an agreement between you and YourServerAdmin (“YSA™”). These Terms of Service govern your use of the services provided by YSA™ (the “Services”).

Access to Servers

Server Management and Support requires administrative access to your server(s) in order to provide services to you, as well as access to the personnel at the data center should be granted. If proper information is not provided, or updated to us, we cannot be responsible for any issues in your server whatsoever.

24/7 Support

You will have access to Server Management and Support via email, Instant Messengers, and help desk 24 hours a day 7 days a week – 365 days a year.

Response Time Guarantee

YSA™ guarantees a response time within 30 minutes Response time is the amount of time between when the client first creates an incident report (which includes sending an email, an instant message or using an online ticketing system) and when YSA™ actually responds to it with confirmation receipt, report or inquiry status.

Non-support related issues

Sales, billing, or any other non-support related issues (including programming and scripting requests) are not covered under our Response time guarantee. 

Resolution Time

Resolution time is the amount of time between when the client first creates an incident report and when that problem is actually solved or workaround provided to a client. Resolution time depends on the complexity of each particular issue. While there is no fixed resolution time guaranteed, YSA™ will make the best effort to resolve it as early as possible. Depending on the complexity of the issue we solve it in a reasonable amount of time. If a request requires more time, we will inform you of this within the time-frame and update you throughout the process

24/7 Server and Services Monitoring

YSA™ will monitor server and services: ping, http, https, smtp, ftp, ssh, dns, disk usage, RAM usage, swap, memory, cpu load, raid status (if possible), processes monitoring, exploit run attempts, system performance, database and any other service performance, per client request. Monitoring is done in real-time 24/7/365

Monitoring of the server/services is carried out exclusively based on the chosen monthly support plan. The monitoring on an hourly basis is not available. If we see a problem on the server we will alert you or/and perform the appropriate steps in accordance to your chosen support plan.

Changes of a Support Plan

Customer can shift from its present Monthly Plan to any other plan available or hourly support during the contract period by sending a request to Sales and Billing department. YSA™  does not charge anything for the plan change to come into effect. The change of the Monthly Plan will come into operation from the next billing date. 

Non-Covered Issues

YSA™ will not provide technical support or troubleshooting for any custom software applications. If you have custom-coded software installed on your server, it will be your responsibility to install, maintain, and troubleshoot it, unless a custom service contract has been arranged with YSA™. YSA™ will not be responsible for any software you attempt to install in your server, while having server managed by YSA™ on a monthly basis. It is highly recommended that if you need to make any changes in your server, that you open a support ticket or send a request and ask our support team for help or/and coordinate your actions on server with YSA™ support team.

One-Time and Hourly Services

One-time services do not carry any specific guarantee. All cases are handled on a best-efforts basis. Although we do our best to provide the best results, 100% success is not realistic, and not guaranteed. We will always try to set clear expectations at the beginning of any one-time support case. The Customer must coordinate and agree with YSA™ upon the character and the volume of technical intervention before the payments for one-time and hourly services are done.

Technical Support Time Calculation

Worked time is counted and billed at 30 min increments for hourly support jobs.

Billing and Payments

Monthly fee will be due on the anniversary date of your signup and is not prorated to the beginning of each month. For example, if Customer signups on January 20, the billing period will be January 20 – February 20. Minimum billed period for monthly support plans is one month. There is no refund or re-calculation of monthly fee for the unused days during the billing period. The Customer will receive an invoice within 7 days after the signup. The Customer is subjected to make the full payments before the end of the billing period for monthly support subscriptions to avoid service interruption, and/or within 7 days after completion of works and invoice issue for hourly and one-time works.

YSA™ may temporarily deny service or terminate this Agreement upon the failure of the Customer to pay charges when due. Such termination or denial will not relieve Customer of responsibility for the payment of all accrued charges. Service will be interrupted on accounts that reach 10 days past due.

Cancellation of services

Cancellation has to be made by emailing Sales and Billing Department and not by informing Technical Team or/and in a live chat or any of our IM (Instant Messengers). There is no cancellation fee. Customer reserves the right to cancel the Service for any reason with prior notice of 7 (seven) days. 

Refusal of Service

YSA™ reserves the right to refuse or cancel the Service at its own discretion. Violation of any of these Terms will result in a warning, suspension, or termination of Service. Service terminated due to Terms of Service violations will not be refunded.

Changes to Terms of Service

YSA™’s Terms of Service is subject to change at any time and without notice at the sole discretion of YSA™. A change in policy shall not be grounds for early contract termination or non-payment. Client recognizes that the nature of the service supplied and the initial rates and charges have been communicated to the client. The client is aware that from time to time rates may change based on overall market conditions or other factors. Clients will be notified of any increases in rates or charges prior to the billing renewal date on which such increases will take effect.
