Attachment A
CockroachDB Dedicated Support and Service Level Agreement
This CockroachDB Dedicated Support and Service Level Agreement (the “SLA”) forms part of the CockroachDB Dedicated Terms and Conditions (the “Agreement”), available at cockroachlabs.cloud, and sets forth the technical support services that are included with the subscription to CockroachDB Dedicated. Capitalized terms not defined in this SLA shall have the meaning set forth in the Agreement. In the event of a conflict between the terms of this SLA and the terms of the Agreement, the terms and conditions of this SLA shall apply only to the extent of such conflict.
1. DEFINITIONS.
"Authorized Contact" has the meaning assigned in Section 3.4(e) of this SLA.
"Downtime" means downtime for the CockroachDB Dedicated cluster if the Probe is not successful in accordance with the definition herein. The internal monitoring system will establish a connection to the cluster. There will be one Probe every five (5) seconds (i.e., twelve (12) Probes per minute), and each failed Probe contributes to five (5) seconds of Downtime. All requests made to nodes that are not part of a Highly-Available CockroachDB Dedicated cluster will be excluded from the Downtime calculation.
"Error" means an error in the Software, which significantly degrades use of the Software as compared to the published and functional performance documentation for the Software.
"Error Rate" means the total number of failed Probes divided by the total number of Probes during a specific period, and is calculated as:
"Monthly Uptime Percentage" means the total number of seconds in a month, minus the number of seconds of Downtime in such month, divided by the total number of seconds in a month, and is calculated as:
If a CockroachCloud cluster is provisioned and running for only part of a month, such cluster is deemed to be 100% available during the portion of the month in which it was not provisioned and running. As used herein, "month" refers to a calendar month.
"Probe" means a statement that is similar to the SHOW DATABASES statement. A probe is considered successful if it returns the expected results with a successful status within three seconds.
"Highly-Available CockroachDB Dedicated Cluster" means a CockroachDB Dedicated cluster with three or more nodes (≥3) provisioned across three or more availability zones.
"Service Credit" means the percentage of applicable monthly Subscription Fees that are credited back to an eligible account if Company’s claim is approved, as set forth below.
"Service Hours" means twenty four (24) hours a day, seven (7) days a week, fifty-two (52) weeks per year.
"Support Services" means the technical support services described in this SLA and provided with the Services (or Beta Services) as specified in the applicable Order Form.
"Target Response Time" shall be measured by the elapsed time between (i) Cockroach Labs’ receipt of Company’s reported Error and (ii) the time when Cockroach Labs initially communicates with Company about the reported Error (such initial communication, the “Response”).
2. SERVICE LEVEL COMMITMENT.
Cockroach Labs shall use commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the availability of the Services (including Beta Services) as provided hereunder. If Cockroach Labs does not achieve and maintain the Monthly Uptime Percentages set forth in the table below, Company may be eligible to receive a Service Credit.
Monthly Uptime Percentage | Service Credit |
Less than 99.95% but equal to or greater than [99%] | 5% |
Less than 99% but equal to or greater than 97% | 10% |
Less than 97% but equal to or greater than 95% | 30% |
2.1. Eligibility. To be eligible for a Service Credit, Company must:
(a) Purchase and operate a Highly-Available CockroachDB Dedicated Cluster of at least three (≥3) nodes, as specified in an applicable Order Form.
(b) Log a support ticket with Cockroach Labs within 24 hours of first becoming aware of an event that impacts service availability.
(c) Submit the claim and all required information by the end of the month immediately following the month in which the Downtime occurred.
(d) Include all information necessary for Cockroach Labs to validate the claim, including (i) a description of the events resulting in Downtime (including documentation of Errors to validate Company claimed outage, with any confidential or sensitive information redacted); (ii) information regarding the time and duration of the Downtime; (iii) the number and location of affected users (if applicable); and (iv) description of attempt(s) to resolve the Downtime at the time of occurrence.
(e) Reasonably assist Cockroach Labs in investigating the cause of the Downtime and processing the claim.
(f) Comply with the terms of the Agreement, including any applicable Cockroach Labs documentation and advice from Cockroach Labs’ support team.
2.2. Processing. Cockroach Labs will evaluate and process Company’s Service Credit requests and determine whether a Service Credit is owed within 45 days of receipt. If Cockroach Labs determines that Company has satisfied the Section 2.1 obligations above and that none of the Section 2.3 exclusions apply to Company’s claim, Cockroach Labs will grant Company a Service Credit. Any Service Credit will be applied to a future invoice or payment for the CockroachDB Dedicated cluster that experienced the Downtime. Service Credits will not be applied to fees for any other CockroachDB Dedicated cluster. Service Credits are Company’s sole and exclusive remedy under this SLA.
2.3. Service Credit Exclusions. Downtime does not include, and Company will not be eligible for a Service Credit for, any performance or availability Error resulting from:
(a) misuse, negligence, misapplication, or willful acts of Company or any third party;
(b) failure to follow appropriate security practices (including but not limited to unauthorized access to Cockroach Labs’ network through use of Company’s password or equipment).
(c) failure to follow the recommended topology patterns for multi-region deployments and performance best practices, as described in Cockroach Labs’ CockroachDB Dedicated documentation, as provided and posted at https://www.cockroachlabs.com/docs/cockroachcloud/.

Attachment B
CockroachDB Dedicated Data Processing Addendum
Subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Order Form and the CockroachDB Dedicated Terms (together, the “Agreement”) this DPA sets forth Cockroach Labs’ data processing obligations with respect to any Company Data that contains “Personal Data” from a European “Data Subject” that is subject to the GDPR (the “Company Personal Data”). Capitalized terms defined in the GDPR shall have the meaning set forth by the GDPR.
1. Purpose for Processing. As a "Processor," Cockroach Labs will process the Company Personal Data only on behalf of Company and in compliance with its instructions and the terms of the Agreement. If Cockroach Labs cannot provide such compliance for whatever reasons, Cockroach Labs will promptly inform Company of Cockroach Labs’ inability to comply, in which case Company is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract.
2. Subprocessors. Company agrees that Cockroach Labs may retain its affiliates and/or third parties to further process Company Personal Data to provide the Software and Services (the "Subprocessors"), provided that (a) Cockroach Labs has informed Company and obtained Company’s prior written consent, (b) such Subprocessors shall be subject to binding data protection and confidentiality obligations at least as protective as the provisions in the Agreement and this DPA, and (c) Cockroach Labs shall be liable for the performance of Subprocessor obligations to the extent required by such data protection laws. If Company instructs Cockroach Labs to transfer Company Personal Data to a Subprocessor outside of the European Union, Company hereby authorizes Cockroach Labs to apply the standard contractual clauses (as described in the European Commission’s decision (C(2010)593) of February 5, 2010) with that Subprocessor.
3. Changes. Cockroach Labs no reason to believe that the data protection law applicable to Cockroach Labs prevents Cockroach Labs from fulfilling the instructions received from Company and the obligations under the Agreement. In the event of a change in this data protection law, Cockroach Labs will promptly notify Company of the change as soon as Cockroach Labs is aware of such change, in which case Company is entitled to suspend the transfer of data and/or terminate the contract.
4. Security Measures. Cockroach Labs has implemented appropriate technical and organisational security measures for processing Company Personal Data, as set forth in the Cockroach Labs documentation available at https://www.cockroachlabs.com/security/, and to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risks associated with processing Company Personal Data.
5. Notifications. Cockroach Labs will promptly notify Company about:
(a) any legally binding request for disclosure of Company Personal Data by a law enforcement authority unless otherwise prohibited, such as a prohibition under criminal law to preserve the confidentiality of a law enforcement investigation,
(b) any accidental or unauthorized access, and
(c) any request received directly from the Data Subjects without responding to that request, unless it has been otherwise authorized to do so.
6. Cockroach Labs agrees to deal promptly and properly with all inquiries from Company relating to its processing of Company Personal Data subject to the transfer and to abide by the advice of the supervisory authority with regard to the processing of transferred Company Personal Data.
7. Audit. Upon Company’s reasonable request and advance notice, and subject to the confidentiality obligations of the Agreement, Cockroach Labs will make information relating to Cockroach Labs’ compliance with the processing obligations of this DPA available to Company or an independent third-party auditor, which shall be bound by a duty of confidentiality of the profession and selected by the Company, where applicable, in agreement with applicable supervisory authority. In the event that audit results are insufficient to demonstrate Cockroach Labs’ compliance with the processing obligations of this DPA, (a) Company may request an on-site audit, solely to the extent required under applicable law, of Cockroach Labs’ processing of Company Personal Data; (b) Cockroach Labs and Company shall mutually agree upon the scope, timing, and duration of the on-site audit; and (c) Company will reimburse Cockroach Labs for the reasonable costs associated with any on-site audit. If non-compliance is discovered as a result of an audit, Company will promptly notify Cockroach Labs, and Cockroach Labs will use commercially reasonable efforts to address confirmed non-compliance.
8. Data Subject Requests. To the extent legally permitted, Cockroach Labs shall promptly notify Company upon receipt of Data Subject’s request to exercise Data Subject’s rights in relation to Company Personal Data under applicable data protection laws (each, a "Data Subject Request"). Cockroach Labs will assist Company in fulfilling Company’s obligation to respond to Data Subject Requests, solely to the extent necessary due to the nature of the processing activities and subject to appropriate technical and organizational measures. Company shall be responsible for any costs and additional fees arising from Cockroach Labs’ assistance in responding to Data Subject Requests. Cockroach Labs will make available to the Data Subject, upon reasonable request, a copy of the DPA, or any existing agreement for subprocessing, unless the such agreements contain commercial information, in which case Cockroach Labs may remove such commercial information.
