Service schedule

Review draft only. Each order should identify the supported application, resources, locations if relevant, included tools, access model and management tasks. No universal application compatibility is promised.

Customer responsibilities

The proposed terms should require lawful content, appropriate permissions, current contact information and secure access. Identify who maintains website code and licences and who can authorise technical changes.

Backups, updates and support

Confirm backup coverage, schedule, retention, restore process, maintenance arrangements and support boundaries. State any exclusions and additional charges before agreement. No recovery time or support response promise is created by this draft.

Suspension and termination

Confirm a proportionate process for non-payment, security risks, unlawful use and material breaches. Specify notices, emergency action, restoration conditions, data export and deletion times before approval.

Data processing and exit

Review the controller and processor roles, any necessary data-processing terms, subprocessors and transfers. Agree access to export data, assistance costs and retention on termination. Supplier integration must be verified before these provisions are finalised.
