OLM.net is committed to providing you with superior service and support. Our service level agreement (SLA) provides uptime and hardware guarantees if you have ordered a direct account or dedicated server packages and your account is in good financial standing with OLM.net.

Network Uptime Guarantee
OLM.net's servers connect to the Internet through redundant high-speed connections on diverse backbones, ensuring data delivery to the end user in the fastest, most efficient manner possible. OLM.net guarantees a 99.9% uptime excluding scheduled maintenance of 30 minutes per month and prior notified upgrades. OLM.net’s Cisco Powered Network, combined with 24/7/365 monitoring by highly qualified network engineers and administrators, guarantee the functioning of all network infrastructure including routers, switches, and cabling.

Credits
In the event that there is network outage*, OLM.net will credit the monthly service charge for the following month’s service as calculated below and as measured 24 hours a day in a calendar month, with the maximum credit not to exceed 25% of the monthly service charge for the affected month.

*Network outage means any outage in which end customers are unable to access the customer’s site, due to a failure in OLM.net’s network.

OLM.net will ONLY be held responsible for its network and not for general conditions on the Internet. Delays that occur outside OLM.net’s routers caused by backbone failures/congestion, interruption of or delay in transportation, unavailability of, interruption or delay in telecommunications, or third party services (including DNS propagation) resulting in degradation of service and high packet loss or similar conditions, cannot be guaranteed by OLM.net.

Hardware Guarantee
OLM.net guarantees the functioning of all dedicated server type leased hardware components and will replace any failed component at no cost to the customer. Hardware repair/replacement will begin immediately upon identification of the hardware failure and is guaranteed to be complete within 2 hours of problem identification. Hardware is defined as the Processor(s), RAM, hard disk(s), motherboard, NIC card, and other related hardware included under the server lease. The time required to repair/replace hardware does not include software reinstallation and/or data recovery from backup tapes/disks (time frame depends on size of disk).

Credits
In the event that it takes us more than 2 hours to repair/replace faulty hardware within the limits defined above, OLM.net will credit the customer 5% of the monthly fee per additional hour of down time (up to 100% of customer's monthly fee).
