Privacy Policy

INTRODUCTION

GitPrime, Inc., a Delaware Corporation (“GitPrime”, “we”, “us”, or the like) provides this Privacy Policy to inform users of our policies and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of personally identifying information (or “PII”) received from users of our website and our software-as-a-service platform (the “Service” or “Website”).

In most cases, GitPrime’s customer for the Service is an organization and a user is accessing and using the Service as an authorized representative of that organization (“Customer”).

References to “you”, “your”, “user(s)”, and the like in this Privacy Policy generally refer to the customer organization, not individual end users, or the individuals whose information has been provided by an authorized representative.

In such cases, GitPrime receives and processes information under the direction of its customer and has no direct contractual relationship with the individuals whose PII is or may be provided.

This Privacy Policy applies to the Website and the Service, and includes information collected via the Website, email, SMS, telephone or other means.

By using or accessing the Website or the Service, you are accepting the practices described in this Privacy Policy, and you are consenting to our processing of your information as set forth in this Privacy Policy now and as amended by us.
Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Privacy Policy or otherwise mutually agreed with the applicable customer, our use of PII collected through the Service shall be limited to the purpose of providing the Service for which the applicable customer has engaged GitPrime.

WEB VISITORS

Like most website operators, GitPrime collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request.

GitPrime also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. GitPrime does not use such information to identify its visitors, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

GATHERING OF PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION (PII)

Registered users require GitPrime to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that GitPrime gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. In each case, GitPrime collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor's interaction with GitPrime.

GitPrime does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And customers can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain service-related activities.

AGGREGATED STATISTICS

GitPrime may collect statistics about the behavior of Customer activity. However, GitPrime does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. From time to time, GitPrime may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate (e.g., by publishing a report on trends).

PROTECTION OF CERTAIN PERSONALLY-IDENTIFYING INFORMATION

GitPrime discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on GitPrime's behalf or to provide services available at GitPrime's services, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others.

Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using GitPrime's websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them.

GitPrime will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors, and affiliated organizations, as described above, GitPrime discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when GitPrime believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of GitPrime, third parties, or the public at large.

GitPrime may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what's going on with GitPrime and our products. We primarily use our blog to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. GitPrime takes all measures reasonably necessary to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration, or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

COOKIES

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. We use both session ID cookies and persistent cookies. A session ID cookie expires when you close your browser. A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. 

GitPrime uses cookies to help GitPrime identify and track visitors, their usage of GitPrime website, and manage certain features. GitPrime visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using GitPrime's websites, with the drawback that most features of the service will be unusable and only the most basic public content available. The use of cookies by third parties is not covered by our privacy policy. For example, when we include content from other sites (e.g., Google Analytics, etc.) these sites may also set their own cookies and we do not have access or control over these cookies.

PRIVACY POLICY CHANGES

Although most changes are likely to be minor, GitPrime may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and at GitPrime's sole discretion. GitPrime encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy.

Support and Service Level Agreement

This GitPrime Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) between GitPrime, Inc. (“GitPrime”, “us” or “we”) and users of the GitPrime Services (“you”) governs the use of the GitPrime Services. Capitalized words and phrases have the meaning specified in the Terms. We reserve the right to change the terms of this SLA in accordance with the Terms.

SERVICE COMMITMENT: 99.95% UPTIME

GitPrime will use commercially reasonable efforts to make the GitPrime Services available with a Monthly Uptime Percentage of at least 99.95% during any monthly billing cycle (the “Service Commitment”). Subject to the GitPrime SLA Exclusions, if we do not meet the Service Commitment, you will be eligible to receive a Service Credit.

A Monthly Uptime Percentage of 99.95% means that we guarantee you will experience no more than 21.56 min/month of Unavailability.

DEFINITIONS

“GitPrime Service” or “Service” or “Services” means your login to our shared hosted environment, it specifically excludes on-premises installations.

“Maintenance” means scheduled or unscheduled Unavailability of the Services, as announced or not announced by us prior to the Services becoming Unavailable.

“Monthly Uptime Percentage” is calculated by subtracting from 100% the percentage of minutes during the month in which the GitPrime Services were Unavailable. Monthly Uptime Percentage measurements exclude downtime resulting directly or indirectly from any GitPrime SLA Exclusion.

“Service Credit” means a credit denominated in US dollars, calculated as set forth below, that we may credit back to an eligible account.

“Unavailable” and “Unavailability” mean the GitPrime Service is not running or not reachable due to GitPrime’s fault excluding unavailability resulting directly or indirectly from any GitPrime SLA Exclusion.

SERVICE COMMITMENTS AND SERVICE CREDITS

Service Credits are calculated as a percentage of the total charges due on your invoice for the monthly billing cycle (or as calculated monthly pro-rata if paid in advance) in which the Unavailability occurred, applied proportionally to the Services that were Unavailable, in accordance with the schedule below:

For Monthly Uptime Percentage less than 99.95% but equal to or greater than 99.0%, you will be eligible for a Service Credit of 10% of the charges during the period of Unavailability. For Monthly Uptime Percentage less than 99.0%, you will be eligible for a Service Credit of 30% of the charges during the period of Unavailability.

We will apply any Service Credits only against future payments for the Services otherwise due from you. Service Credits will not entitle you to any refund or other payment from GitPrime. A Service Credit will be applicable and issued only if the credit amount for the applicable monthly billing cycle is greater than two hundred dollars ($200.00 USD). Service Credits may not be transferred or applied to any other account and are not cumulative across monthly billing periods.

SOLE REMEDY

Unless otherwise provided elsewhere, your sole and exclusive remedy for any unavailability, non-performance, or other failure by us to provide the GitPrime Services is the receipt of a Service Credit (if eligible) in accordance with the terms of this SLA.

CREDIT REQUEST AND PAYMENT PROCEDURE

To receive a Service Credit, you must submit a claim by emailing support@pluralsight.com. To be eligible, the credit request must be received by us within 5-days of the period of unavailability and must include:

  • The words “SLA Credit Request” in the subject line;
  • The dates and times of each Unavailability incident that you are claiming;
  • The primary account holder's name or company name; and
  • Logs that document the errors and corroborate your claimed outage (any confidential or sensitive information in these logs should be removed or replaced with asterisks).

If the Monthly Uptime Percentage of such request is confirmed by us and is less than the Service Commitment, then we will issue the Service Credit to you within one billing cycle following the month in which your request is confirmed by us. Your failure to provide the request and other information as required above will disqualify you from receiving a Service Credit.

GITPRIME SLA EXCLUSIONS

The Service Commitment does not apply to any unavailability, suspension or termination of the GitPrime Services, or any other GitPrime Service performance issue:

  • That results from a loss of password, suspension, payment dispute, or contract dispute of any kind;
  • Caused by factors outside of our reasonable control, including any force majeure event, Internet access, or problems beyond the demarcation point of the GitPrime network;
  • That results from any actions or inactions of you or any third party;
  • That results from the equipment, software or other technology of you or any third party (other than third party equipment within our direct control);
  • That results from failures of GitPrime Services not attributable to Unavailability; or
  • That results from any Maintenance. If availability is impacted by factors other than those used in our Monthly Uptime Percentage calculation, then we may issue a Service Credit considering such factors at our sole discretion.
