4. Service credits

Service credits are calculated per calendar month based on the measured uptime from Section 2. Credits apply exclusively to platform availability (uptime), not to the quality or speed of transcriptions or other Output. For the purpose of this Section, the monthly fee means the monthly equivalent of the Client's subscription fee, calculated as the annual subscription fee divided by twelve, or, where the Client is invoiced monthly, the monthly invoice amount.

Measured uptime in calendar month	Credit
< 99.5% and ≥ 98.5%	10% of the monthly fee
< 98.5% and ≥ 97.5%	20% of the monthly fee
< 97.5%	30% of the monthly fee

Maximum: the total credits in any calendar month shall never exceed 100% of the monthly fee for that month.

Procedure: the Client shall submit a credit request by email within 30 calendar days of the incident. dembrane shall process the request within 10 business days.

Settlement: awarded credits are added to the Client's account as account credit and are applied automatically against future fees. If the Agreement ends before an awarded credit has been fully applied, dembrane shall refund the remaining credit amount within 30 calendar days of the end date.

dembrane shall not grant credits if:

Availability:

a. the downtime falls under an exclusion from Section 2 or Article 14 (Force majeure) of the General Terms and Conditions;

Client responsibilities:

b. the Client has not reported the incident in a timely manner via the designated support channel;

c. the Client has used incompatible browsers or equipment (see Documentation);

d. the Client uses a VPN, proxy or similar network configuration that affects the connection to the Platform;

e. the reduced quality of Output is the result of insufficient audio quality on the Client's side (see General Terms and Conditions Article 3.4);

f. the Client's account has an outstanding payment; or

g. the Client has otherwise failed to comply with its obligations under the General Terms and Conditions (Article 4).

Service credits constitute the sole remedy for SLA shortcomings (see General Terms and Conditions Article 10.4).
