1. Eligibility
This maintenance service is exclusively available for websites developed or upgraded by Kintiq. If you have existing source code or a website built by another provider, you must contact Kintiq at [email protected] prior to subscribing to verify eligibility and discuss integration requirements.
2. Service Coverage
Most subscription plans cover maintenance and hosting services for one (1) website/domain only. The Enterprise Pro plan covers up to four (4) sites, apps, or systems under a single subscription. Multiple websites beyond your plan's coverage require separate subscriptions. This service includes bug fixes, updates, security patches, performance monitoring, and technical support. New feature development and significant design changes are not included under this maintenance subscription and require separate agreements.
3. Request Limits
Monthly request limits are calculated based on incoming HTTP/HTTPS requests to your website. If your website exceeds the monthly request limit specified in your plan:
- For Kintiq-hosted websites: Your website will go offline until you upgrade to a higher tier
- For self-hosted websites: Your website will remain online, but maintenance and support services will be suspended
- You will be notified when you reach 80% of your limit and given the option to upgrade
- Services will fully resume upon upgrade or at the start of your next billing cycle
4. Billing & Cancellation
All plans are billed monthly in advance. You may cancel at any time, and your service will continue until the end of your current billing period. No refunds for partial months. Upon cancellation, please send a confirmation email to [email protected] with your cancellation details and any final instructions.
If Kintiq decides to cancel your service or discontinue the maintenance plan, we will provide you with at least 30 days advance written notice to allow you adequate time to make alternative arrangements.
5. Service Level Agreement
We strive for 99.9% uptime for all hosted websites. Response times for support requests vary by plan tier (e.g., "2h response" means our team will acknowledge your request and begin working on it within 2 hours, not that the issue will be resolved within 2 hours). The actual time to resolve an issue depends on its complexity and scope. Scheduled maintenance will be communicated at least 48 hours in advance.
6. Data & Backups
While we maintain regular backups according to your plan, you are responsible for maintaining your own backup copies of critical data. We are not liable for data loss due to circumstances beyond our control. All data, source code, and intellectual property remain the exclusive property of the client at all times.
7. Acceptable Use
Your website must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. We reserve the right to suspend service for websites engaged in illegal activities, malware distribution, or excessive resource consumption that impacts other customers.
8. Server Access & Security
Kintiq requires administrative access to your server infrastructure to provide maintenance services. If you plan to cancel or have canceled your subscription, you must immediately change all server credentials, passwords, SSH keys, and API access tokens. Kintiq will not be responsible for any security issues, breaches, or unauthorized access once the subscription becomes inactive. It is the client's responsibility to revoke all Kintiq access permissions promptly upon cancellation.
9. Formal Service Agreement
If you require a separate signed service agreement, Kintiq can provide a formal contract incorporating all the terms and conditions outlined above. Please contact [email protected] to request a customized service agreement for your subscription.
