Slack is a business hours resource. There are no associated SLAs for response times. All communications with Unit21 are to be held through the allocated channel and not via direct message. All support related communications should be made pursuant to Section 1(a) of this Agreement.

c. Problem Notification and Emergency Outages. Unit21 will notify the customer personnel immediately upon discovery of any problem classified as critical or of any unscheduled maintenance procedures. The customer is required to provide a contact list of key personnel to Unit21 for this notification and maintain updates for accuracy.

d. Maintenance and Support. Unit21 will use best efforts to maintain and monitor the health of all the necessary hardware, software, bandwidth, and other facilities and equipment necessary to provide the customer with access to the services in accordance with the terms of the Agreement.

e. Issue Classifications and Definitions.
Problem severity will be determined using the following guidelines:

Level Severity Description
P0 Urgent The customer experiences a sustained loss of service where critical features are completely unavailable for access for 15 minutes or more, and there is no reasonable workaround.

Loss of access to these critical features constitute a P0 issue:
  • Access to main dashboard interface
  • Ability to create end-user triggered, production transactions through the API
  • Ability to run ID verification and sanctions screening to on-board customers
  • Performing actions on alerts and cases
  • Filing SARs1
  • Ability to accurately run Real Time Rules on transactions
Please submit a P0 ticket by using the word "outage".
P1 High The customer experiences a sustained loss of important service functionality of unreliable behavior from the system.

Loss of function from these important features constitute a P1 issue:
  • Production transaction monitoring rules not operating as defined
  • ID verification and sanctions screening not operating as defined
  • Alert/case pages on the dashboard taking more than 45 seconds to load
  • Entity/event pages on the dashboard taking more than 45 seconds to load
  • Production file exports stuck in 'pending' for more than 6 hours
  • Data inserted into the system will be available within 60 minutes 95% of the time. For large data volumes (>1 million records in 24 hours), it should be available within 72 hours most of the time depending on the exact volume.
  • Updates to the aggregations for Real Time Rules evaluation can be delayed by up to 60 minutes 95% of the time.
Please submit a P1 ticket by using the word "urgent".
P2 Medium Important features of the Unit21 SaaS are deteriorated and an alternative solution is available, or non-essential features of the Unit21 SaaS are unavailable and no workaround or alternative solution is available.

The impact to the customer, regardless of usage of the Unit21 SaaS, is moderate to minimal in terms of loss of operational functionality or implementation resources.
P3 Low Functionality errors, where the customer internal backup tool or workaround is available, system latency is mildly impacted.
