Customer may request, and Company may provide, additional support services or services related to Software customization or enhancement (collectively, “Premium Support”), as set forth in S-1 through S-15 below. If Company is unable or unwilling to provide Premium Support requested by Customer, Company may, in its sole discretion, provide Customer with access to the Software source code.

Customer will inform its employees of the Customer’s obligations under the Agreement. Customer is responsible for any breach of the obligations by its employees, contractors, and consultants.
If Customer fails to pay any Fees or other amounts when due, and such failure continues for 30 days following written notice thereof, Company may, at its discretion, (a) suspend the license and Services under the Agreement, or (b) terminate the Agreement under Section 16. The remedies in this paragraph are in addition to any other remedies that may be available to Company.

Without limiting Company’s rights and remedies, Customer agrees to remedy any Excess Usage within 30 days of written notification. Excess Usage remedies include either (a) if Excess Usage has only occurred within the previous 30 days, uninstalling or deleting enough copies of the Software so that Customer’s usage is limited to the number of installed copies of the Software authorized under the Agreement, or (b) to pay within 30 days the fees applicable to Customer’s Excess Usage (the “Excess Usage Fees”) in an amount per server equivalent to a rate per server calculable by reference to the fee and server quantity rates set forth on http://sensuapp.org/pricing. Excess Usage Fees will be calculated as a prorated fee based on the volume of the Excess Usage, from the date such Excess Usage began until the termination of the Agreement.
Company may terminate the license upon written notice for Customer’s failure to comply with the Agreement (including these Terms and Conditions).
Upon termination, Customer must immediately return or destroy the Software, together with all copies, adaptations and merged portions in any form.

Company’s obligations under this paragraph will not apply to any demand to the extent it arises from (a) Sensu Core; (b) Customer’s misuse of the Software or use of the Software outside the scope of the Agreement; or © modification of the Software other than by Company. If the Software is determined to infringe or, in Company’s view, is likely to be found to infringe third-party rights, Company will, at its sole option and its expense, either procure for Customer the right to continue using the Software or replace or modify the Software so that it becomes non-infringing. If, in Company’s sole opinion, neither option is desirable, Company may terminate the license under the Agreement and refund to Customer a pro rata portion of the applicable Fees. THE REMEDIES STATED IN THIS SECTION ARE CUSTOMER’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDIES IN THE EVENT OF INFRINGEMENT.
If the Software or any Software Update fails to perform substantially in accordance with Company’s expectations for it, Company, at its discretion, will (a) use commercially reasonable efforts to correct any errors in the Software Updates provided to Customer or (b) refund to Customer the amount charged for the Services (or if the Services were covered by the License Fee, the amount that would have been charged to Customer if the Services had been charged on an hourly basis).

CUSTOMER MAY BRING NO ACTION, REGARDLESS OF FORM, ARISING OUT OF THE SOFTWARE OR SERVICES PROVIDED HEREUNDER MORE THAN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE ACCRUAL OF THE CLAIM ON WHICH THE CAUSE OF ACTION IS BASED.
COMPANY’S LIABILITY TO CUSTOMER ON ANY CLAIM FOR DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO DIRECT DAMAGES AND SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT OF THE FEES PAID BY CUSTOMER UNDER THE AGREEMENT. THIS LIMITATION OF AMOUNT OF LIABILITY DOES NOT APPLY TO COMPANY’S INDEMNIFICATION OBLIGATION UNDER SECTION 21 OF THE AGREEMENT. IN ANY EVENT, NO PARTY TO THE AGREEMENT SHALL HAVE ANY LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES (INCLUDING LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUE) OF ANY PARTY OR ANY THIRD PARTY, EVEN IF A PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
Subject to prior approval by Company, Customer may transfer the Software to a single recipient on a permanent basis provided Customer retains no copies of the Software and the recipient agrees in writing to the obligations of the Agreement and these Terms and Conditions. Company may assign the Agreement at any time without prior notice to, or consent of, Customer.
Neither party to the Agreement will be responsible for delays or failures in performance resulting from causes beyond its control. Such causes include without limitation acts of God, war, riot, earthquake, embargo, fire, flood, accident, strike, and any breakdown or interruption in service of communications, telecommunications, Internet, satellite, or any other medium of contact currently used or used in the future.

NO DIFFERENT OR ADDITIONAL TERMS ON ANY PURCHASE ORDER OR OTHER FORM UTILIZED BY CUSTOMER IN CONNECTION WITH THE SOFTWARE OR COMPANY’S SERVICES WILL BE PART OF THE AGREEMENT OR OTHERWISE BINDING ON COMPANY.
If any restriction in the Agreement or these Terms and Conditions exceeds that permitted under applicable law, it is to be deemed modified to provide for the maximum permissible restriction. If any provision is nonetheless held unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the enforceability of the Agreement in any other jurisdiction and the enforceability of the remaining provisions in that jurisdiction will not be affected.

NOTE: These Sensu Enterprise License Terms and Conditions (including Sections S-1 through S-15 below) were last updated on July 1, 2018. Prior versions can be obtained by contacting Sensu.
Standard Support includes efforts to restore all documented functions of the Software. Company shall correct any errors or omissions in Documentation (as defined in Section S-5 below), and Software problems that prevent the Software from performing in accordance with the Documentation or other terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement.
Standard Support services are available during Regular Business Hours (as defined in Section S-7 below) and are provided by contacting the Helpdesk or Email Support (as defined in Section S-8 below). Phone Support (as defined in Section S-9 below) is not included in Standard Support.
Customer may elect to purchase Premium Support service which provides the following added-value services in addition to Standard Support: a 1-hour Response Time SLA for Level 1 service requests, with 24x7x365 availability (i.e., 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days per year); Phone Support; a Dedicated Account Manager; and Bugfix and Feature Prioritization services.
The Sensu Enterprise software includes all documented functions of the sensu-enterprise-server (the Sensu Enterprise “server” and API) and sensu-client, as well as configuration of the Sensu “stack” (including Redis and RabbitMQ) (the “Software”), as described in Documentation.
Company shall automatically make all Software Releases available to Customer no later than the date that such update is generally made available by Company. Software is considered available by adding it to the Sensu Enterprise software repositories, located at http://enterprise.sensuapp.com. All Software modifications, updates, and upgrades (“Software Releases”) made to the Software by Company are to be considered part of the Software and made available to Customer subject to terms and conditions of the Agreement. All Software Releases will be versioned according to the industry standard semantic versioning convention (i.e. MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH[1]; e.g. “version 1.2.2”). Company will ensure that MINOR and PATCH version Software Releases do not degrade the performance, features, functionality, or operation of the Software. Customer shall not be required to install every Software Release. Company will continue to provide support services for Customer’s installed version of Software subject to the terms and conditions of this SLA, provided however that Company shall not be obligated to continue to provide support services for any Software that is:
more than three (3) MINOR versions behind the then-current release that is generally made available to all of Company’s customers, or
more than 12-months behind the then-current release that is generally made available to all of Company’s customers
Company will provide accurate and complete documentation describing the installation, configuration, use, and operation of the Software. Documentation will include all instructions required to use the Software with other computer equipment and programs. Documentation will be made available via the Sensu website (https://sensuapp.org/docs). Additional local copies of the Documentation source text and Documentation website may be downloaded from http://github.com/sensu/sensu-docs. Company will update the Documentation no later than 30 days following general availability of Software Releases which modify or append to Software functionality.
Company will notify Customer promptly concerning problems in the Software, if any, as such problems become known to Company. Notifications will be made available via email and/or the Helpdesk.
Company’s regular hours of operations are 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM (Pacific Time), Monday through Friday, excluding holidays (“Regular Business Hours”).
Support services may be obtained by visiting https://helpdesk.sensuapp.com (the “Helpdesk”), or by emailing helpdesk@sensuapp.com (“Email Support”). Service requests submitted via Email Support will be processed and accessible via the Helpdesk.
A support “hotline” is available only for Premium Support customers by dialing 1-855-99-SENSU (73678). Phone calls will be answered in the order in which they are received. If no agent is available to answer the support hotline, Premium Support customers may leave a voicemail, and an agent will return their call(s) within 60 minutes (for qualifying Level 1 requests).
Company will assign a primary point of contact (“Dedicated Account Manager”) for all Premium Support customers only. Customer will receive the Dedicated Account Manager’s name and direct contact information which Customer may use for escalating service requests that have already been submitted to the Helpdesk, or for answering general questions and inquiries regarding supplementary services such as training or other professional services.
Support requests must be submitted via the Helpdesk, Email Support, or Phone Support (for Premium Support customers only). Level 1 support requests by Premium Support customers must be submitted via phone to ensure 1-hour response time. Unless otherwise indicated by the customer at the time of submission, all support requests will be classified as “Level 3” by default.
Response and resolution times are determined by the Service Level Classification of a support request, as set forth below. All Sensu Enterprise customers may set (or “classify”) the Service Level of their support requests. However, Company reserves the right to reclassify the Service Level at any time if Company reasonably believes the classification is incorrect. For example, reclassifications may occur in situations where a service request is submitted as Level 1 or Level 2, but the actual situation does not comport with the corresponding classification definition. Company may also increase the Service Level of a support request if the situation is deemed to be more urgent than originally reported.
Level 1 Software failures in a production environment which cannot be resolved by restarting the Software; critical security vulnerabilities. Does not include development issues or problems in “pre-production” environments. Level 2 Intermittent Software failures in a production environment which can be temporarily resolved by restarting the Software and/or by some other known workaround; non-critical security vulnerabilities. Does not include development issues or problems in “pre-production” environments. Level 3 Software failures in a non-production environment; assistance troubleshooting undesired monitoring behavior (e.g. noisy alerts, configuration changes, or faulty plugins). Does not include development issues. Level 4 New feature and/or other change requests, training and/or setup-related questions (e.g. “how to __?”), and development issues. S-13: SLA Response Times. Company will respond to service requests as soon as possible, according to their Service Level Classification, as described in the table below, in the order in which they were received. At minimum, Company will respond corresponding to the schedule as set forth below. “Response” includes determining and/or confirming Service Level Classification of a request, deciding how best to resolve the request to Customer’s satisfaction, and providing Customer with an estimate for when the request may be resolved. Responses may be submitted by writing (via email or the Helpdesk), or via phone. NOTE: although some requests may be resolved during the initial response, “Response” does not equate to Resolution (as defined in Section S-14 below); actual resolution times will vary.
| Service Level | Standard Support | Premium Support |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | 4 business hours Regular Business Hours |
1 hour 24x7x365 |
| Level 2 | Next business day Regular Business Hours |
6 hours Regular Business Hours |
| Level 3 (Default) | 2 business days Regular Business Hours |
Next business day Regular Business Hours |
| Level 4 | 5 business days | Regular Business Hours |
Though actual resolution times will vary, Company expects to resolve service requests as soon as possible, according to their Service Level Classification, as described in the table below, in the order in which they were received. “Resolution” includes initial mitigation and/or restoration of the Software to an operational state (i.e. “short-term” resolution), and/or actual remediation (i.e. “long-term” resolution). To the extent possible, Company will attempt to resolve all service requests corresponding to the schedule set forth below. If, due to the complexity and/or severity of the issue(s), or an unusually high volume of service requests, the Sensu Support team is unable to resolve a support request within the corresponding SLA Resolution Time, Customer will be notified accordingly (along with an estimate for when the request will be resolved).
| Service Level | Standard Support | Premium Support |
|---|---|---|
| Level 1 | Next business day Regular Business Hours |
24 hours 24x7x365 |
| Level 2 | 2 business days Regular Business Hours |
Next business day Regular Business Hours |
| Level 3 (Default) | 5 business days Regular Business Hours |
2 business days Regular Business Hours |
| Level 4 | n/a | 10 business days |
Company may prioritize Software Releases containing fixes or new features corresponding to requests from Premium Support customers.
