Enterprise-grade reliability, accountability, and transparency.
Effective February 25, 2026
Version 2.0
PlusPlus is committed to delivering a reliable, enterprise-grade learning platform. This Service Level Agreement (SLA) defines the commitments, responsibilities, and performance standards governing service delivery for enterprise customers.
Service Availability Commitment
99.5% Monthly Uptime Guarantee
PlusPlus ensures that the Services and all material functionalities are available 99.5% of the time in any given calendar month, excluding Excluded Downtime as defined below.
This commitment reflects our dedication to delivering a reliable, production-ready learning platform.
How Availability Is Measured
Service Availability is defined as the ability for end users to:
Log in to the platform
Access content
Complete assignments
Use reporting APIs
Availability is measured through external synthetic monitoring across multiple geographic regions.
Downtime:
Calculated in 5-minute increments
Excludes Degraded Performance classified as SEV-2 or lower
Only counts meaningful service interruptions against the SLA target
Service Credits
Remedies & Claims
If PlusPlus fails to meet the uptime commitment during any calendar month, customers may be eligible for Service Credits.
Credit Entitlement
Customers may receive a 5% Service Credit of the total amount owed for the Eligible Credit Period.
Credits:
Apply to future invoices
Represent the sole and exclusive remedy for uptime failures
Claim Submission
Must be submitted in writing within 30 days

Late claims may not be eligible unless otherwise agreed
Eligible Credit Period
