Last Updated: February 7, 2024

This Amazon Inspector Service Level Agreement for Amazon Web Services (Ningxia Region) (“SLA”) is a policy governing the use of the Included Services (listed below) under the terms of the Western Cloud Data Customer Agreement for Amazon Web Services (Ningxia Region) (available at https://www.amazonaws.cn/agreement/ningxia and as updated from time to time, collectively with other agreements with us governing your use of our Services, the “Agreement”) between Ningxia Western Cloud Data Technology Co., Ltd. (“Western Cloud Data”, “us” or “we”) and you. This SLA applies separately to each account using the Included Services. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this SLA apply, but only to the extent of such conflict. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

Included Services

• Amazon Inspector

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Included Services available with the Monthly Uptime Percentage during any monthly billing cycle, of at least 99.9% (the “Service Commitment”). In the event an Included Service does not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below. The Service Commitment and Service Credits provided to you under this SLA will be provided to you only in connection with your use of the Included Services from Amazon Web Services China (Ningxia) region. This SLA does not authorize you to receive any Service Commitment or Service Credits from any other Amazon Web Services regions.

Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges paid by you for the applicable Included Service for the monthly billing cycle in which the Service Commitment was not met, in accordance with the schedule below:

Monthly Uptime Percentage	Service Credit Percentage
Less than 99.9% but greater than or equal to 99.0%	10%
Less than 99.0% but greater than or equal to 95.0%	25%
Less than 95.0%	100%

We will apply any Service Credits only against future payments otherwise due from you for the Included Service. At our discretion, we may issue the Service Credit to the bank card you used to pay for the billing cycle in which the unavailability occurred. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from us. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than one Renminbi (¥1 Renminbi). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide an Included Service is the receipt of a Service Credit (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a case in the Amazon Web Services Support Center. To be eligible, the credit request must be received by us by the end of the second billing cycle after which the incident occurred and must include:

i. the words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;

ii. the billing cycle with respect to which you are claiming Service Credits, together with the Monthly Uptime Percentage for the billing cycle and the specific dates, times, and Availabilities for each 5-minute interval with less than 100% Availability throughout the billing cycle; 

iii. your request logs that document the Error(s) for the Included Service and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).

If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the Service Commitment, then we will issue the Service Credit to you within one billing cycle following the month in which the request occurred. Your failure to provide the request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit.

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension, or termination of an Included Service, or any other Included Service performance issues: (i) caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of the Included Service; (ii) that result from any actions or inactions by you; (iii) that result from you not following the guidelines and best practices described in the  Included Service Documentation on the Amazon Web Services China Site; (iv) that result from your equipment, software or other technology; or (v) arising from our suspension or termination of your right to use the Included Service in accordance with the Agreement (collectively, the “Amazon Inspector SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our Monthly Uptime Percentage calculation, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.

• “Available” and “Availability” are calculated for each 5-minute interval as the percentage of Requests processed by an Included Service that do not fail with an Error. If you did not make any Requests in a given 5-minute interval, that interval is assumed to be 100% available.
• An “Error” is any Request that returns a 500 or 503 error code, as described in the Inspector Common Errors on the Amazon Web Services China Site.
• “Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated as the average of the Availability for all 5-minute intervals in a monthly billing cycle. Monthly Uptime Percentage measurements exclude unavailability resulting directly or indirectly from any Amazon Inspector SLA Exclusions.
• A “Request” is a customer-initiated action of a type specifically listed as being supported by an Included Service in the applicable Included Service API Reference Documentation on the Amazon Web Services China Site. For the avoidance of doubt, Requests do not include actions listed under other products or services.
• A “Service Credit” is a Renminbi credit, calculated as set forth above, that we may credit back to an eligible account.
