Service Availability

The level of availability of the services offered is on average 99.9% per year. Keyweb measures the level of availability of the mentioned services with the help of measuring installations inside and outside its own network and checks the functionality and quality of the hardware with the help of 24x7 monitoring systems.

We guarantee the average availability of the services offered for the year at the level of 99%. During the scheduled annual work, the service is considered provided.

If the minimum availability level specified in the concluded agreement is not provided, client funds will be recalculated.

Data center

Our data centers are located in the center of Germany - to ensure reliable hosting made in Germany.

Our data centers are powered by regenerative electricity produced from renewable sources.

Servers are located in data centers, each of which is equipped with air conditioning, fire safety, access control and reserved power supply systems. An extensive, multi-layered, gigabit network connection guarantees you a first-class and reliable connection to the Internet.

When maintaining and assembling servers, we use only high quality components (eg Cisco routers, Intel® processors, etc.) to minimize the risk of failures.

We guarantee your emails extensive server-level virus and spam protection based on proprietary protection systems and reliable software.

Carrying out planned work

Regular scheduled maintenance serves to improve the performance and stability of services, as well as to maintain the health of the infrastructure. For these works, a time frame is specified in which periodic, scheduled and unscheduled work will be carried out on the devices of Keyweb and its suppliers. Possible interruptions in the availability of services caused by these works are not considered as downtime, the service is considered to be provided.

Planned works affecting or interrupting customer services will be announced at least 7 days in advance. As a rule, these works will be carried out at night between 01:00 and 06:00 hours (+1GMT). In exceptional cases, these works can also be carried out at any other time, while maintaining a minimum impact on the current work.

Violation of the agreement

If the guaranteed level of availability is not reached, Keyweb provides compensation to the client. The request for compensation must be sent by the client within 14 calendar days after the expiration of the calendar month for which compensation must be provided, in writing by mail or telefax. The date of the application is the postmark or the date of receipt of the fax

The amount of compensation is determined by the period of interruption in work. Compensation for violation of the service level agreement is 1/30 of the monthly cost of the affected service for every half hour of violation of the provided warranties, up to a maximum of 50% of the monthly rental cost.
