PRODUCTOFFICE
SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE AGREEMENT
This ProductOffice Software as a Service Agreement (SaaS) is a legal agreement between you (either an individual or a single entity) and ProductOffice LLC for software hosting services (Services) that you purchase in connection with ProductOffice Software. YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS SAAS BY PURCHASING AND USING SOFTWARE HOSTING SERVICES FROM PRODUCTOFFICE.

By way of this Software as a Service Agreement, you agree to allow ProductOffice to host ProductOffice Software, which you have paid for, at its data center. Your receipt of Services is in accordance with the terms of the SaaS in effect at the time of such Services. By securing Services, you accept and agree to the SaaS in effect at such time.

Service and Network Availability

1. Guarantee of Availability: ProductOffice guarantees uptime of 99.9% with regard to Services during any given U.S. calendar month, except during maintenance windows.

2. Maintenance Windows: ProductOffice will set forth a standard maintenance schedule to maintain and update all hosting servers. The standard maintenance windows will be published on ProductOffice’s web site. In case of emergency maintenance requirements, ProductOffice will make efforts to announce such maintenance windows at least 24 hours in advance of emergency maintenance, but in no event less than 12 hours prior to scheduled maintenance.

3. Third Party Network Availability: ProductOffice does not guarantee network availability between the customer and the ProductOffice hosting servers as network availability can involve numerous third parties and is beyond the control of ProductOffice. ProductOffice will not be liable for any down time caused by its data center provider or for any down time that you experience as a result of your own network connectivity issues.

4. Unavailability of Services: If you experience a Service outage and are unable to access the Services, you must immediately contact ProductOffice’s help desk and notify ProductOffice of the service outage, providing any/all necessary information that may assist ProductOffice’s technical support in determining the cause of the outage. ProductOffice will determine whether the outage or failure was within ProductOffice’s reasonable control. If ProductOffice determines that a service outage was attributable to ProductOffice, then ProductOffice will credit you 1-day of Service fees for every 2 hours of down-time you experienced, up to a maximum of half of that month’s Service fees. ProductOffice will have no other liability to you for failure to provide the guaranteed network availability.

Information Security, Storage and Backup

1. Information Security: ProductOffice will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide and maintain a secure environment for your stored data/information at ProductOffice’s data center(s).
   In the unlikely event of a security breach of your data/information, your exclusive remedy will be limited to a refund of 1-month of Service fees. You understand and agree to assume the risk of any such security breach and agree to hold ProductOffice harmless there from.
   
   
2. Data Storage: Customer data is stored in a relational database file on hosted servers and it is backed up on Network Attached Storage (or NSA) devices. ProductOffice shall maintain your data/information for a period of one (1) business day after receiving a cancellation of Services notice from you.
   
   
3. Data Backup: ProductOffice will backup data on a nightly basis. Your data will be backed up onto a machine separate from the machine servicing your data. All backed up data will be stored at the same location as ProductOffice’s hosted servers. In the unlikely event of a physical disaster, it is possible that your backed-up data may be destroyed, along with ProductOffice’s main hosting equipment. In such event, ProductOffice’s sole liability will be to provide you with a refund of one (1) month of Service fees.
   
   
4. Return of Data: Should you wish to obtain a raw copy of your database from ProductOffice, you may do so by paying a small fee and communicating your request to ProductOffice prior to or in conjunction with termination of Services.
