4.3. The Service Provider provides the Service under present GTC between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. Central European Time (CET) and Central European Summer Time (CEST). If the Request submitted by the User is received before 9 a.m. on a given day, it shall be deemed that it was received at 9 a.m. on that given day. If the Request was received by the Service Provider after 5 p.m. on a given day, it shall be deemed to have been received at 9 a.m. on the following day.

4.4. The Service Provider does not provide the Service on weekends, public holidays and Hungarian national holidays (1st of January 1 - New Years Eve; 15th of March - Remembrance day of the revolution of 1848; Good Friday and Easter Monday; 1st of May - Labor Day; Pentecost; 20th of August - Day of the founding of the state; 23rd of October - Remembrance day of the 1956 revolution; 1st of November - All Saints Day; 25-26th of December - Christmas).

4.5. Within the framework of the Service, the Service Provider – considering the provisions of Section 6.4. – undertakes to answer a Request sent to it by the User within 2 working days of receipt (first response time). However, the latter – as the solution for the problem reported by the User may take longer than that considering that the investigation of complex problems and the implementation of tasks requiring development require the harmonious cooperation of an employee working in different roles already in the analysis phase, which can take significantly more time – does not mean that the problem indicated by the User will be resolved within this period. The Service Provider informs the User that it cannot take a deadline to solve the problem, it can only give an estimate of the expected works after investigating the problem in specific cases. In the event of failure to do so, the User may not enforce any claim against the Service Provider. The Service Provider also informs the User that if Atlassian identifies an error as a critical error, it will respond to the Atlassian request within 1 working day.

An exception to this clause is the case if the User has made the change according to this clause due to the exact application of the official description published by the Service Provider.

If and as long as the User does not provide the conditions, the Service Provider is not obliged to provide the Service. The Service Provider informs the User that certain problems only occur in combination with a specific platform or third party software, which the Service Provider cannot reproduce in its own system environment. In view of the latter, the decision to use screen sharing or remote access is based on the assumption that the problem can be reproduced in this way, thus allowing the nature of the problem to be mapped and subsequent solutions to be developed. However, the Service Provider cannot guarantee that it can solve the problem with the above methods. the Service Provider also informs the User that the use of remote access takes place only in the presence and supervision of the User, the Service Provider does not use (nor does it require the functionality of access) remote access without the User's supervision and presence.

5.11.

4.5. Within the framework of the Service, the Service Provider – considering the provisions of Section 6.4. – undertakes to answer a Request sent to it by the User within 2 working days of receipt (first response time). However, the latter – as the solution for the problem reported by the User may take longer than that considering that the investigation of complex problems and the implementation of tasks requiring development require the harmonious cooperation of an employee working in different roles already in the analysis phase, which can take significantly more time – does not mean that the problem indicated by the User will be resolved within this period. The Service Provider informs the User that it cannot take a deadline to solve the problem, it can only give an estimate of the expected works after investigating the problem in specific cases. In the event of failure to do so, the User may not enforce any claim against the Service Provider.

If and as long as the User does not provide the conditions, the Service Provider is not obliged to provide the Service. The Service Provider informs the User that certain problems only occur in combination with a specific platform or third party software, which the Service Provider cannot reproduce in its own system environment. In view of the latter, the decision to use screen sharing or remote access is based on the assumption that the problem can be reproduced in this way, thus allowing the nature of the problem to be mapped and subsequent solutions to be developed. However, the Service Provider cannot guarantee that it can solve the problem with the above methods. the Service Provider also informs the User that the use of remote access takes place only in the presence and supervision of the User, the Service Provider does not use (nor does it require the functionality of access) remote access without the User's supervision and presence.

However, if in its sole discretion the Service Provider decides to accept the request, it will not be obliged to implement the new function by a pre-determined date, however, the Service Provider has the possibility to estimate the completion of the function.

5.13. The User is not entitled to give instructions to the Service Provider in connection with the method of providing the Service.

5.14.The Service Provider is obliged to provide the Service with the utmost care, keeping the interests of the User in mind, at the highest professional level.
