Service Level Agreement


Packet Loss over the Internet

PyRoHoSt guarantees less than 1% average packet loss over the internet within Australia. Packet Loss is calculated by averaging measurements between various points on the PyRoHoSt network during the calendar month. If our average packet loss is more than 1% in any one month period, one full weeks's service credit will be awarded. If any refunds for the Uptime Policy are claimed within any 6 month period, a customer is not liable for this credit as well, unless at the discetion of PyRoHoSt.

Service Level Agreement SLA / Uptime Policy


All our hosting products (including Shared Hosting & Reseller Hosting) come with a 99.9% Network & 99.5% Uptime availability commitment. In any 6 month period that our hosting services fail to have an average availability of 99.5%, clients can request a free plan upgrade to the next plan (on shared hosting plans) or an additional free month of hosting on the same plan. The stated figure of 99.5% equates to approximately 3.5 hours of allowable downtime per month, for the stated 6 month period that becomes a total allowable accumulative downtime of 21 hours/6 months. Please note that downtime is considered as only that which causes complete website outage, either by network/hardware failure or due to our own administration errors. The following cases are considered beyond our control and will not be eligible for a free month or free upgrade:

* Downtime due to Acts of any governmental/law enforcement/legal body
* Downtime due to any and all natural disasters, including, but not limited to, fire and flood
* Downtime due to wars, insurrection, sabotage, armed conflict, embargo, strike or other labor disturbance
