Credits

Where Customer accesses the Services through a Reseller, any service credits arising under this SLA will be calculated by reference to the fees paid by the Reseller to incident.io in respect of Customer’s subscription and will be issued to the Reseller (and not to Customer). The Reseller is solely responsible for passing the benefit of any such credits on to Customer, which it will do at the time of the next renewal of Customer’s subscription. incident.io has no obligation to issue credits, refunds or payments directly to Customer. Service credits are the sole and exclusive remedy for any failure to meet the service levels in this SLA, and incident.io’s aggregate liability for SLA failures will not exceed the value of the credits available under this SLA.
