Rasa Support Services Policy

This Rasa Support Services Policy is the primary document used to communicate Rasa's support policies to licensees of Rasa software products (each such licensee, a "Customer"), including Rasa's software products available under both proprietary licenses and open source licenses (collectively, "Software"). As referenced either in the proprietary license agreement under which you obtain and are granted the right to use Rasa's software and/or the agreement under which you obtain a subscription ("Subscription") to Rasa's support services (in each case, the "Agreement"), this Support Services Policy sets forth Rasa's support terms and conditions, as well as provides a description of Rasa's technical support levels. Capitalized terms not defined herein have the definition set forth in the applicable Agreement.
1. Scope of Support Services
The scope of the Support Services provided to Customer includes general assistance and support regarding the installation of the Software and basic technical configuration of the Software, as well as developer assistance on how to use the Software. Rasa will provide Support Services to Customer in accordance with this Support Services Policy and the Agreement.
2. Support Services Offerings
Rasa offers two (2) different levels of the Support Services which are described below in Section 3 (Support Levels) of this Support Services Policy and are subject to the specific terms and conditions set forth therein regarding hours of operation, response times, methods of support and other matters for each Subscription Level. Rasa shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet the applicable targeted response times set forth below. Customer acknowledges that the time required for resolution of issues may vary depending on the specific circumstances of each problem, including, without limitation, the nature of the incident/problem, the extent and accuracy of information available about the incident/problem, and the level of Customer's cooperation and responsiveness in providing materials, information, access, and support reasonably required by Rasa to achieve problem resolution.

5. Security Level Definitions
1. Urgent A Urgent severity level issue is either an incident with Customers’ chatbot in production, or a major error within the software that severely impacts the Customer's use of the software for production purposes, such as the loss of production data or where production systems are not functioning and no work-around exists. Rasa will use continuous efforts during the Normal Hours of Operation stated above for the applicable Subscription level to provide a resolution for any Urgent issues as soon as is commercially reasonable.
2. High A High severity level issue is either an incident with Customers’ chatbot in production, or an error within the software where the customer's system is functioning for production purposes but in a reduced capacity, such as a problem that is causing significant impact to portions of the customer's business operations and productivity, or where the software is exposed to potential loss or interruption of service. Rasa will use continuous efforts during the Normal Hours of Operation stated above for the applicable Subscription level to provide a resolution for any High severity level issues.
3. Normal A Normal severity level issue is either an incident with Customers’ chatbot in production, or a medium-to- low impact error that involves partial and/or non-critical loss of functionality for production purposes or development purposes, such as a problem that impairs some operations but allows the customer's operations to continue to function. Errors for which there is limited or no loss or functionality or impact to the customer's operation and for which there is an easy work-around qualify as a Normal severity level. Rasa will use reasonable efforts to provide a resolution for any Normal issue in time for an upcoming release of Software.
6. Customer Obligations
Customer must provide a functional Digital Assistant description at time of a support request to clearly define the Digital Assistant Rasa will be supporting. Customer is responsible for ensuring that its personnel that interact with Rasa have sufficient English language and technical skills and respond to and cooperate with Rasa in a timely manner in connection to requests for Support Services.
As a precondition for requesting Support Services from Rasa, Customer (A) must have a Rasa software subscription, and (B) agrees to (and to cause each of its developers to) use reasonable efforts to: (i) attempt to solve the problem and to utilize sufficient resources to clearly understand that a problem exists before consulting Rasa; (ii) provide Rasa with sufficient information and technical data in order for Rasa to establish that a potential problem is not the kind of problem that is an exclusion from the Support Services; (iii) make reasonable attempts and expend reasonable resources to provide any data reasonably requested by Rasa to adequately address the potential problem; (iv) utilize sufficient resources to understand the instructions from Rasa in addressing the problem, and make reasonable attempts to correct the problem as suggested by Rasa. In addition, Customer agrees and acknowledges that the extent of access and the accuracy of information and technical data provided may affect Rasa's ability to provide the Support Services.
