AWS CloudTrail Service Level Agreement

This AWS CloudTrail Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) is a policy governing the use of AWS CloudTrail and applies separately to each account using AWS CloudTrail. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the AWS Customer Agreement or other agreement with us governing your use of our Services (the “Agreement”), the terms and conditions of this SLA apply, but only to the extent of such conflict. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Agreement.

AWS will use commercially reasonable efforts to make AWS CloudTrail available with a Monthly Uptime Percentage for each AWS region, during any monthly billing cycle, of at least 99.9% (the “Service Commitment”). In the event AWS CloudTrail does not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below.

Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges paid by you for AWS CloudTrail in the affected AWS region for the billing cycle in which the error occurred in accordance with the schedule below.

For all requests not otherwise specified below:

We will apply any Service Credits only against future AWS CloudTrail payments otherwise due from you. At our discretion, we may issue the Service Credit to the credit card you used to pay for the billing cycle in which the error occurred. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from AWS. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than one dollar ($1 USD). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide AWS CloudTrail is the receipt of a Service Credit (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a case in the AWS Support Center. To be eligible, the credit request must be received by us by the end of the second billing cycle after which the incident occurred and must include:

1. The words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;

2. The dates and times of each incident of non-zero Error Rates that you are claiming; and

3. Your request logs that document the errors and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).

If the Monthly Uptime Percentage applicable to the month of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the applicable Service Commitment, then we will issue the Service Credit to you within one billing cycle following the month in which your request is confirmed by us. Your failure to provide the request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit.

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of AWS CloudTrail, or any other AWS CloudTrail performance issues: (i) caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event or Internet access or related problems beyond the demarcation point of AWS CloudTrail; (ii) that result from any actions or inactions of you; (iii) that result from your equipment, software or other technology; (iv) that result from you not following the best practices described in the AWS CloudTrail User Guide on the AWS Site; or (v) arising from our suspension or termination of your right to use AWS CloudTrail in accordance with the Agreement (collectively, the “AWS CloudTrail SLA Exclusions”). If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our calculation of the Error Rate, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.

• “Error Rate” means: (i) the total number of internal server errors returned by AWS CloudTrail as error status “InternalError” or “ServiceUnavailable” divided by (ii) the total number of requests for the applicable request type during that five minute interval in a given AWS region. We will calculate the Error Rate for each AWS CloudTrail account as a percentage for each five minute interval in the monthly billing cycle. The Error Rate calculation will not include errors that arise directly or indirectly as a result of any of the AWS CloudTrail SLA Exclusions.
  
• “Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the average of the Error Rates from each five minute interval in the monthly billing cycle for a given AWS region.
  
• A “Service Credit” is a dollar credit, calculated as set forth above, that we may credit back to an eligible AWS CloudTrail account.
