    Unless otherwise agreed, this Agreement does not apply to features of the Service for closed beta testing. Tencent Cloud does not make any warranties as to the availability and quality of such features.

    Please do not purchase or use the Service unless and until you have fully read, and completely understood and accepted all the terms hereof. By clicking “Agree”/ “Next”, or by purchasing or using the Service, or by otherwise accepting this Agreement, whether express or implied, you are deemed to have read, and agreed to be bound by, this Agreement.

    1. Terms and Definitions

    1.1 API Gateway Service

    API Gateway Service refers to API Gateway service provided by Tencent Cloud which covers the full lifecycle API management, including creation, maintenance, release, operation, and deactivation, etc. For details, please refer to the information of the Service publicly released by Tencent Cloud.

    1.2 Service Month(s)

    Service Months refer to the calendar month(s) within the term of the Service purchased by you. For example, if you purchase the Service for a term of three months starting from March 17, there will be four (4) Service Months (the first Service Month from March 17 to March 31, the second from April 1 to April 30, the third from May 1 to May 31, and the fourth from June 1 to June 16). The availability of the Service will be calculated independently for each Service Month.

    1.3 Valid Request

    Valid Requests refer to all requests received by API Gateway.

    1.4 Failed Request

    A Failed Request refers to an API calling failure due to malfunction of the Service per se. Any API calling failure caused by any other reasons, including but not limited to network malfunction, user-end service malfunction or user configuration error, does not constitute a Failed Request.

    1.5 Service Downtime within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes

    If all your requests to access API Gateway Service within a territory within one (1) uninterrupted minute are Failed Requests, such one (1) minute shall be counted into Service Downtime, while any duration of such failure for less than one (1) interrupted minute will not be counted into Service Downtime. Service Downtime within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes means the accumulated Service Downtime calculated in minutes within a Service Month.

    1.6 Total Time within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes

    Total Time within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes = the number of days within a Service Month × 24 (hours) × 60 (minutes)

    2. Service Availability

    2.1 Calculation of Service Availability

    Service Availability = (1 – Service Downtime within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes / Total Time within a Service Month Calculated in Minutes) × 100%

    2.2 Standard of Service Availability

    The Service Availability of the Service will be no less than 99.90%. You are entitled to the compensation as set forth in Section 3 (Service Compensation) below if the Service Availability fails to meet the aforementioned standard, other than in any circumstance as provided for in the release of liabilities provisions below.
    The log feature made available by the Service is for the log of the components of the gateway per se in order to facilitate your troubleshooting. Such log feature is provided beyond the scope of the business data of this Service. Tencent Cloud does not make any warranties as to the availability, quality and storage security with respect to such log feature, neither does this Agreement apply to such log feature.

    (2) If the Service Availability for a Service Month fails to meet the standard, the amount of compensation will be calculated for such month independently, and the aggregate amount shall be no more than the applicable monthly Service fee paid by you for such month (the monthly Service fee referred to herein shall exclude the fee deducted by a voucher or promotional coupon, Service fee discounted or waived, or fees otherwise deductible).

    Service Availability (Av) for a Service Month Value of Compensation Voucher
