For any FinPix project which involves the build of a website/microsite specifically mentioned in the confirmation form, and for which there is an associated support period confirmed in the confirmation form, the following standard Service Level Agreement (SLA) shall apply.
- This SLA is between the Client (named on the Last Word order form) and FinPix, for the support required to sustain the website(s) and microsite(s) specifically named in the order form.
- The SLA shall be in place from when the site(s) goes live, until the end of the period specified in the order form. If no period is specified, the default period will be three (3) months.
- These SLAs may be updated at any time by FinPix, and the current version will always be live on this webpage.
- The following detailed service parameters are the responsibility of FinPix:
- FinPix will manage:
- all incident requests from and conversations with client users (employees and contractors) and client admins.
- all development (if any is agreed).
- all interaction with the server team (in this case WP Engine).
- FinPix is supported by WP Engine (“the host”), who are responsible for server maintenance including backups/redundancies, server uptime, penetration testing, plugin compliance, updates, exploits and similar hosting related matters.

- Category 1 support requests are covered under our standard support arrangements. Category 2 and 3 requests are likely to be chargeable. Charges will be agreed and signed off before work is undertaken.
