Appendix A: Scope of Services

1. Set Up means the initial server configuration to allow a new or reactivated site to accept incoming data and be displayed by the infinitii flowworks data service (i.e. site name, location, channel names, file format, etc). Set Up includes time for infinitii flowworks staff to be available via phone and email support to confirm with User’s field staff that a site is successfully connecting to infinitii flowworks. Set Up also covers basic set up of calculations in the infinitii flowworks systems (basic flow parameters, etc. supplied by User) as required.

2. Custom Programming means additional programming beyond Set Up (defined in 1, above) intended to allow the User to use infinitii flowworks to meet specific needs. By adding business and application-specific reporting, analysis and display functions to the basic infinitii flowworks interface, infinitii flowworks developers can deliver the precise system required.

3. Data Sites include active sites and deactivated sites. An Active Site is a site set up on the infinitii flowworks data service and available to receive data from the infinitii flowworks Service. A site is deemed to be Active from the time it is set up until such time as the User notifies infinitii flowworks management in writing that the site is to be deactivated. A Deactivated Site, also known as an “Inactive”, “Historic” or “Non-Reporting” site, is a site that has been disconnected from the infinitii flowworks Service.

4. infinitii flowworks Charges for Active Sites. The monthly service fee applies to all sites active for any part of a given month.

5. Deactivated Site Data is available to Users if:

  • Users have one or more active sites on infinitii flowworks and are current in payment of infinitii flowworks fees, or
  • Users do not have an active site but have contracted to pay infinitii flowworks an agreed upon monthly data maintenance charge.

In the event Users do not comply with either case, infinitii flowworks may, at its sole discretion, remove Users’ login accounts, block access to Users’ data and purge Users’ data from the infinitii flowworks servers.

6. Data Back Up is provided by infinitii flowworks using both onsite and offsite systems, as part of Users monthly fees, but infinitii flowworks does not provide warranties for the infinitii flowworks Service and it limits its liability for data loss (see Terms and Conditions, Sections 1 and 7).

infinitii flowworks recommends that Users back up data from infinitii flowworks routinely to their own systems. infinitii flowworks will consult with you on data back up procedures during the Set Up phase of the infinitii flowworks Service.
