Grip Maintenance, Support and SLA
Maintenance Events

However, Intros may interrupt Guest App Services outside Normal Business Hours for maintenance if it has given the Customer at least three days' advance written notice.
- Any Maintenance Events that occur during Normal Business Hours, or that occur with less notice than required by paragraph 1.1, and which were not requested by the Customer, shall be considered downtime for the purpose of service availability measurement. Intros shall always strive to minimize any service interruptions.

Service Availability
Intros will make reasonable commercial efforts to ensure that the Guest App has a service availability level of at least 99.5% per calendar year (the "Uptime Service Level").
The Guest App will be considered unavailable only during:
- Priority 1 and 2 faults
- unplanned maintenance events
It is important to note that Guest App Services will not be considered "unavailable" during maintenance events as described in the Maintenance and Support section above, customer-caused outages or disruptions, or outages or disruptions attributable in whole or in part to force majeure events within the meaning of clause 16 of the Conditions of Service.
*Please note that currently, Grip cannot guarantee a 99.5% uptime in China due to firewalls and other elements that might be impacting our services.
