SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE AGREEMENT
#REDIRECT [[QPR SaaS Terms and Conditions]]
 
This Software as a Service Agreement is a legal agreement between QPR Software Plc. (hereinafter "QPR") and a customer organization (hereinafter the "Customer" and, together with QPR, the "Parties") for software hosting services (“Services”) that you purchase.
 
YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE AGREEMENT WHEN YOU PURCHASE AND USE SOFTWARE HOSTING SERVICES FROM QPR SOFTWARE PLC.
 
By way of this Software as a Service Agreement, the Customer agrees to allow QPR to host software, which the Customer has licensed and paid for, at QPR’s or its hosting vendor's data center(s). Services shall be provided in accordance with the terms of the agreement in force at the time of delivery. By using the Services, you accept and agree to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
 
'''1 Contents of the Services'''
 
1.1 The Services shall contain the hardware- and software platform required for the Service for the Customer including the Server hardware, network connectivity from the server hardware to the internet, and backups of the data in the environment.
 
1.2 Operational Support: Support for the environment is available from QPR Customer Care during normal business opening hours. QPR reserves the right to alter the business opening hours of QPR Customer Care. QPR may at its own discretion subcontract any part or all of the support services to its authorized resellers, subcontractors, or representatives which are bound by the same responsibilities as QPR.
 
'''2 Service and Network Availability'''
 
2.1 Guarantee of Availability: QPR will make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Services are available to use during any given time, except during maintenance windows. Operation of the Service may require short breaks in the service outside maintenance windows.
 
2.2 Maintenance Windows: QPR will perform maintenance in hosting servers and environments in pre-scheduled maintenance windows. The standard maintenance windows will be communicated separately. In case of emergency maintenance requirements, QPR will make effort to inform Customers of such maintenance needs at least 24 hours in advance.
 
2.3 Third Party Network Availability: QPR cannot guarantee network availability between the Customer and the hosted environment, as network availability can involve numerous third parties and is beyond the control of QPR. QPR will not be liable for any down time that you experience as a result of your own network connectivity issues.
 
2.4 Unavailability of Services: QPR is obligated to start resolving any service outage or other problem with the Services within one (1) hour after receiving notification from the Customer during opening hours of QPR Customer Care. QPR will make efforts to determine whether the outage or other problem is within QPR's reasonable control. If QPR determines the issue is attributable to QPR, the Customer will be credited 1 day of Service fee for every 4 hours of down-time the Customer experienced after the notification of the downtime to QPR. QPR will have no other liability to the Customer for failure to provide the guaranteed network availability.
 
'''3 Information Security, Storage and Backup'''
 
3.1 Information Security: QPR will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide and maintain a secure environment for Customer Data. In the unlikely event of a security breach of Customer Data caused by QPR, the exclusive remedy will be limited to a refund of the total amount paid by customer for the SaaS service over the twelve (12) months preceding the event. You understand and agree to assume the risk of any such security breach and agree to hold QPR harmless therefrom.

3.3 Data Backup: Customer Data is backed up on a nightly basis. In the unlikely event of a data loss in which all sets of backup data are also unrecoverable, QPRs sole liability will be to provide you with a refund of a maximum twelve (12) months of SaaS Service fees. No Customer Data is retroactively removed from the backups.
 
3.4 Rights to Customer Data: QPR asserts no ownership or other rights to Customer Data.

3.6 Access to Customer Data: QPR personnel shall not access the Customer Data, except as needed for resolving any technical problems of the Service, performing maintenance tasks to the Service, or performing agreed services.
 
3.7 Return of Data: Should Customer wish to obtain a raw copy of Customer Data from QPR, it is made possible by QPR guiding the Customer to download the data or by agreeing on a separately invoiceable service by QPR.
