• Downtime caused by misuse of the Services or use in breach of the MSA or AUP.
• Beta, trial or experimental features clearly identified as such.
7. Service credits (if applicable)
7.1 If we offer service credits for failure to meet uptime targets, the specific credit structure and claim process will be stated in your Order Form or a separate schedule. Any such credits will be your sole and exclusive remedy for the relevant service level failure.
