Cheetah Free Support

GENERAL 

Cheetah Free Support will be provided to Customer’s Designated Admins and Authorized Contacts (as outlined below) for those Cheetah Services in accordance with this Schedule. Cheetah will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly respond to each case and promptly resolve each issue.  Actual resolution time will depend on the nature of the case and the steps required for full restoration.  A resolution may consist of a fix, workaround or other solution in Cheetah’s reasonable determination.

Cheetah Free Support is available 24×7. In language support is provided M-F 9:00 am – 6:00 pm local time. All other times support is provided in English.

Languages supported (timezone): English (24 x 7), Cantonese (CST – Beijing Time), French (CET), German (CET), Japanese (JST), Mandarin (HKT), and Spanish (CET).

DESIGNATED ADMINS AND AUTHORIZED CONTACTS 

Designated Admins act as a “funnel” for all account level requests (e.g., enabling/disabling free or paid for features [MI, SSL certs], FTP account creation, IP whitelisting, activate/deactivate platform users, maintenance of your Authorized Contact list, permission changes). Customer can identify between one (1) and three (3) Designated Admins.

The primary responsibilities of Designated Admins are:

  • to submit account level or general requests on behalf of the Customer;
  • to maintain the customer list of Authorized Contacts; and
  • to be knowledgeable about the Cheetah platform in order to be able to assist, as necessary, in analyzing and testing resolutions to technical issues.

Authorized Contacts can submit general requests encountered during day-to-day usage of the Cheetah Digital platform.

The primary responsibilities of Authorized Contacts are:

  • to submit general requests on behalf of the Customer; and
  • to be knowledgeable about the Cheetah platform in order to be able to assist, as necessary, in analyzing and testing resolutions to technical issues.

To ensure ongoing security (e.g. Customer being aware of all access points) of a Customer’s account, Support will only be provided to Designated Admins and Authorized Contacts identified by Customer.

ISSUE CATEGORIZATION LEVELS 

Reproducible errors that cannot promptly be resolved will be escalated to appropriate resources for further investigation and analysis.  Issues will be generally categorized and handled according to assigned priority & impact levels, as follows: 

PriorityDescription (depicts how the platform is behaving)
 P1 – CriticalComplete platform or critical functionality interruption  |  no platform availability | any security incident.(e.g., the platform is down)
 P2 – HighCritical functionality or access degradation  |  persistent/intermittent impact on platform usability  |  no reasonable workaround available.(e.g., API, SMS, “stuck” campaigns, imports/exports, links, images, slowness, potential security incident, etc.)
 P3 – MediumNon-critical functionality or client process degradation  |  platform available but with operational impact  |  reasonable workaround available.(e.g., errors in data mgmt, filters, templates, reporting, deliverability, activity tracking, etc.)
 P4 – NormalGeneral inquiry/request  |  information on platform capabilities, navigation, installation or configuration.(e.g., how do I…, GDPR, SSL, account activation, PW reset, data pull, un/block request, etc.) Any case received via email will be categorized and worked as a P4.
