SLA & Support

For the avoidance of doubt, the following Service Level Agreement (SLA) of Nosto shall apply exclusively between Shopware and the Customer. Shopware shall bear sole responsibility for ensuring that Nosto duly performs and complies with all obligations arising under said SLA.

For the avoidance of doubt, any and all references to obligations of Nosto under this Agreement shall be understood solely as obligations for which Shopware assumes responsibility to exert all reasonable efforts to procure Nosto’s proper performance and compliance. Under no circumstances shall this be construed as creating any direct contractual relationship or direct claim between the Customer and Nosto.

Nosto SLA and Support

General Service Commitment

Shopware shall be under an obligation to procure that Nosto will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the Services available with a Monthly Uptime Percentage of at least 99.5%, in each case during any calendar month (the “Service Commitment”). In the event the Service does not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit as described below.

Definitions

“Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of minutes during the month in which any of the Services was in the state of Unavailability. Monthly Uptime Percentage measurements exclude Unavailability resulting directly or indirectly from any Nosto SLA Exclusion.

“Service Credit” is a dollar or euro credit, calculated from the customer’s monthly price for the Services, that Shopware may credit back to an eligible account.

“Unavailable” and “Unavailability” mean a major outage so that the service published through http(s)://connect.nosto.com is not responding or requests are timing out. Service availability is monitored by a third party monitoring service selected by Nosto and the information will be available in Nosto's public status page (https://status.nosto.com)

Monthly Uptime

Monthly Uptime Percentage

Service Credit

Less than 99.5% but equal to or greater than 99.3%

5 %

Less than 99.3% but equal to or greater than 99.0%

10 %

Less than 99.0%

15 %

We will apply any Service Credits only against future payments for the Service 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 Unavailability occurred. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from Shopware. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than 50 EUR/USD. Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account.

Nosto SLA Exclusions

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of the Service, or any other Service 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 the applicable Service; (ii) that result from any actions or inactions of you or any third party, including failure to acknowledge a recovery volume; (iii) that result from your equipment, software or other technology and/or third party equipment, software or other technology (other than third party equipment within our direct control); or (iv) arising from our suspension or termination of your right to use the applicable Service in accordance with the Agreement. If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our Monthly Uptime Percentage calculation, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our discretion.

Credit Request and Payment Procedures

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by opening a case by sending an email to customer@shopware.com (with support@nosto.com in CC). To be eligible, the credit request must be received by Shopware latest 30 days after the incident occurred and must include:

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

2. the dates and times of the Unavailability incident that you are claiming.

3. You may also include request logs that document the errors and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced).

If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such a request is confirmed by us and is less than the 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. Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement, this SLA sets forth your sole and exclusive remedies, and sole and exclusive obligations for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide the Included Services.

Response Times

The response time is the maximum duration time from when you report an incident, to the time an initial response is sent back to you.

Also, in some instances a temporary fix may not be available or appropriate in which case you will be informed of the estimated permanent fix resolution time. When a workaround/fix is provided, we’ll agree with you on the timescales for the delivery of the permanent fix.

Fallback Mechanism

The Customer acknowledges and agrees that Shopware’s obligations under the Service Level Agreement (SLA), including the provision of service credits and support commitments, are conditional upon the Customer implementing and maintaining an operational fallback mechanism for any Nosto-enabled pages or functions.

While Shopware provides services to maximize uptime and performance, this SLA, including service credits and support commitments, applies only when a customer-managed fallback to the platform’s native rendering is in place for any Nosto-enabled pages, including but not limited to Nosto Search or Category Merchandising. Customers acknowledge that they should maintain independent measures to support essential functionality and should not rely solely on Nosto’s services as the exclusive operational dependency for such critical functions.
