Service Level Agreement

Effective: January 1, 2024 Updated: November 15, 2024 Version 2.4

1. Overview & Scope

This Service Level Agreement ("SLA") outlines the service commitments, performance benchmarks, and support guarantees provided by LearnFlow to all subscribed users. It applies to the LearnFlow web platform, iOS/Android mobile applications, learning management system (LMS), video streaming infrastructure, live session technology, and customer support services.

Important: This SLA supplements the LearnFlow Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. In the event of any conflict, the Terms of Service shall prevail unless explicitly stated otherwise in this document.

2. Service Availability & Uptime Guarantee

LearnFlow guarantees a monthly uptime percentage of 99.9% for core platform services. Uptime is measured based on the continuous operation of the primary learning dashboard, course catalog, and authentication systems.

Uptime is calculated using the following formula:

Uptime % = ((Total Hours in Month βˆ’ Unplanned Downtime) / Total Hours in Month) Γ— 100

Scheduled maintenance will be communicated at least 72 hours in advance via email and in-app notifications. Maintenance windows are typically scheduled during off-peak hours (02:00 – 05:00 UTC) to minimize disruption.

3. Performance Standards

Under normal operating conditions and with adequate user-side bandwidth, LearnFlow commits to the following performance benchmarks:

Service Component Target Metric Measurement Standard
Video Streaming Playback ≀ 2.0s initial buffer 1080p stream on β‰₯25 Mbps connection
Dashboard & Course Pages ≀ 1.5s fully interactive Global CDN-optimized endpoints
REST API Response ≀ 300ms (95th percentile) Authenticated endpoints
Live Class Latency ≀ 1.2 seconds WebRTC real-time classrooms
Assessment Submission ≀ 800ms processing Automated grading pipelines

4. Support & Response Times

LearnFlow provides tiered technical support with guaranteed initial response times based on issue severity:

Severity Description Response Time Resolution Target
Critical (P1) Platform outage, data corruption, or security vulnerability affecting all users ≀ 15 minutes Continuous until resolved
High (P2) Major feature failure impacting multiple users or enterprise deployments ≀ 1 hour ≀ 4 business hours
Medium (P3) Minor bugs, UI inconsistencies, or isolated account issues ≀ 4 hours ≀ 2 business days
Low (P4) Feature requests, documentation queries, cosmetic improvements ≀ 24 hours Next product cycle

Support channels include email (support@learnflow.io), in-app ticketing, and live chat (Enterprise tier). Standard business hours: Monday–Friday, 08:00 – 20:00 UTC.

5. Customer Responsibilities

To maintain service quality and security, subscribers agree to:

  • Maintain secure account credentials and enable Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
  • Access the platform using supported browsers and operating systems (documented in Compatibility Guidelines)
  • Ensure stable network connectivity for video streaming and synchronous learning sessions
  • Report technical issues promptly through official support channels with relevant diagnostic details
  • Refrain from automated scraping, API abuse, or any activity violating the Acceptable Use Policy

6. Service Credits & Remedies

If LearnFlow fails to meet the guaranteed uptime threshold in a billing cycle, eligible paid subscribers will receive service credits applied to their next invoice:

Monthly Uptime Achieved Service Credit
99.00% – 99.89% 10% of monthly subscription fee
95.00% – 98.99% 25% of monthly subscription fee
Below 95.00% 50% of monthly subscription fee

Credit claims must be submitted within 30 days of the billing cycle end date. Credits are capped at 100% of the monthly fee and do not apply to free, trial, or educational license accounts.

7. Exceptions & Force Majeure

Uptime guarantees and service credits are suspended during interruptions caused by:

  • Scheduled maintenance with proper advance notice
  • Customer negligence, unauthorized third-party integrations, or local network failures
  • Force majeure events including natural disasters, armed conflict, terrorism, government interference, or widespread ISP outages
  • Beta, preview, or experimental features explicitly marked as non-production
  • Actions taken to protect platform security or prevent abuse

8. Modifications & Termination

LearnFlow reserves the right to amend this SLA to reflect technological advancements, service expansions, or operational improvements. Material changes will be communicated via email and in-app notifications at least 30 days prior to effectiveness. Continued platform usage constitutes acceptance of revised terms.

This SLA remains in effect for the duration of your subscription. Upon account cancellation or contract expiration, all SLA provisions terminate automatically. Standard data retention and export policies will apply per the Terms of Service.
