2.1. General Description of Services
Innovenx's bot defense system is a specialized service designed to identify, monitor, and manage bot traffic on a website (“Intellifend 機器人管理”), so as to distinguish between legitimate bots (like search engine crawlers) and malicious bots (such as scrapers, spammers, and automated attackers) that aim to carry out fraudulent activities. Intellifend Bot Management uses techniques like behaviour analysis and machine learning modelling, enabling businesses to block or control unwanted bot traffic, and thereby safeguarding the integrity and performance of digital assets.
2.2. Service Term
2.2.1. | The term for each Service commences on the Service Start Date and continues for the Initial Period,unless terminated or renewed in accordance with this Agreement (“Service Term”). |

Any written notice pursuant to this Clause to be provided to Innovenx shall be via email to [email protected]. |
2.2.3. | If the User terminates a Service prior to the end of its Service Term (as may be extended from time to time), the User shall pay a termination fee equivalent to 12 months of the fees in respect of the Service. The User irrevocably, unconditionally and absolutely acknowledges that this termination fee is a reasonable estimate of the losses to Innovenx as a result of the early termination of the Service, and does not constitute a penalty. |
3. SERVICE LEVELS
3.1. Service Availability
3.1.1. | Innovenx commits to Service Availability Percentage of 99.5% on a month-to-month basis for the duration of the Service Term. In the event that Innovenx fails to meet the Service Availability Percentage in a particular month, the User may be eligible to receive Service Level Credits. The eligibility of a User to receive Service Level Credit is prescribed in Clause 3.5. |
3.1.2. |
Service Availability Percentage shall be calculated in the following manner: Where: A : refers to the total number of minutes in a particular month.
