Support and Maintenance Services Terms and Conditions
To the extent Cyral has become obligated for support and maintenance, the following will apply with respect to software Products so long as they remain Cyral’s standard terms and the Licensee is in full compliance with the Agreement. Capitalized terms not defined in Section 5 below have the same meaning as in Cyral’s standard Software License Terms.
- SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE SERVICES. Support and Maintenance Services consist of (a) Error Correction and Telephone Support provided to a single consistent technical support contact concerning the installation and use of the then current release of a Product and the Previous Sequential Release, (b) E-mail Support, (c) Web Support, and (d) Product updates that Cyral in its discretion makes generally available to its support and maintenance customers without additional charge.
- ERROR PRIORITY LEVELS. Cyral shall exercise commercially reasonable efforts (up to [16] hours per month) to correct any Error reported by Licensee in the current unmodified release of Product in accordance with the priority level reasonably assigned to such Error by Cyral and in accordance with the target response times as set forth in Table B of Schedule 1.
If Cyral believes that a problem reported by Licensee may not be due to an Error in a Product, Cyral will so notify Licensee. At that time, Licensee may (1) instruct Cyral to proceed with problem determination at its possible expense as set forth below, or (2) instruct Cyral that Licensee does not wish the problem pursued at its possible expense. If Licensee requests that Cyral proceed with problem determination at its possible expense and Cyral determines that the error was not due to an Error in the Product, Licensee shall pay Cyral, at Cyral’s then-current and standard consulting rates, for all work performed in connection with such determination, plus reasonable related expenses incurred therewith. Licensee shall not be liable for (i) problem determination or repair to the extent problems are due to Errors in the Product; or (ii) work performed under this paragraph in excess of its instructions; or (iii) work performed after Licensee has notified Cyral that it no longer wishes work on the problem determination to be continued at its possible expense (such notice shall be deemed given when actually received by Cyral). If Licensee instructs Cyral that it does not wish the problem pursued at its possible expense or if such determination requires effort in excess of Licensee’s instructions, Cyral may, at its sole discretion, elect not to investigate the error with no liability therefor. - EXCLUSIONS. Cyral shall have no obligation to support: (i) altered or damaged Products or any portion of a Product incorporated with or into other software; (ii) any Product that is not the then current release or immediately Previous Sequential Release; (iii) Product problems caused by Licensee’s negligence, abuse or misapplication, use of Products other than as specified in Cyral’s user manual or other causes beyond the control of Cyral; or (iv) Products installed on any hardware that is not supported by Cyral. Cyral shall have no liability for any changes in Licensee’s hardware which may be necessary to use Products due to a Workaround or maintenance release.
