Service Level Agreement
Our service availability and support commitments
Last updated: November 30, 2024 | Version 1.0
This Service Level Agreement (SLA) describes CandidateHub's service availability commitments and support response times. These commitments apply to our Pro plan. Free plan users receive best-effort support without SLA guarantees.
Service Tiers
| Feature | Free Tier | Pro Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Uptime Commitment | Best effort (no SLA) | 99.5% |
| Service Credits | None | Yes |
| Critical Support | 72 hours | 24 hours |
| High Priority Support | 5 business days | 48 hours |
| Normal Support | 7 business days | 72 hours |
Uptime Commitment
Pro Plan: 99.5% Monthly Uptime
How Uptime is Calculated
Monthly Uptime % = ((Total Minutes - Downtime Minutes) / Total Minutes) × 100
Example: In a 30-day month (43,200 total minutes), 99.5% uptime allows a maximum of 216 minutes (3.6 hours) of downtime.
Definitions
- •Downtime: Service is unavailable or substantially degraded for users
- •Uptime: Service is available and functions normally
- •Substantially Degraded: Response times exceed 10 seconds or error rates exceed 1%
Service Credits (Pro Plan)
