The Maintenance and Support Services are divided into General Maintenance and Support as defined below.

General Maintenance

The End User is entitled to update versions of the Licensed Software as replacement for the previous versions. The updates will consist of error corrections and other improvements to the Licensed Software according to Dataloy’s policies.

The End User is entitled to a reasonable amount of technical support related to the use of the Licensed Software. Technical support is limited to email support and telephone support from Dataloy’s office in accordance with the Service Level Agreement (SLA).
