In the case that the results show underlicensing please note the following: due to the complexity of Licensing Law there are many different ways to eliminate the defiency of licences. Therefore we strongly recommend our customers to contact additional experts as for example an independent consultant of the German Quality Association for Licensing (GUGL).
§3 Availability

However ASSETARIS is determined to achieve at least the following availability of services:
The target time is defined from Monday to Friday 8.00 a.m. to 8.00 p.m. CET (with the exception of German national holidays).
Deduction time ist defined as time in which the system ist not available because of general disturbances ASSETARIS ist not responsible for, especially due to:
Disturbances caused by components which lie beyond the responsibility of ASSETARIS.
Misuse of software applications through customer.
Downtimes (= DT) are defined as times where the service is not available due to disturbances ASSETARIS is responsible for.
The maximum availability time (= MaxT) per year is defined: 12 hours per day, 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year (12 x 5 x 52). The result is 3120 hours of availability time – deduction time.

The strategy of ASSETARIS on information security is based on the guidelines of ISO 27001. At the present ASSETARIS is not officially certified. We invite data security engineers or internal auditors to contact us for any questions or requirements concerning data protection or audits.
ASSETARIS agrees to treat confidentially all information of which it becomes aware during and in connection with the customer´s SAM project. All employees of ASSETARIS are contractually bound to:
observe data privacy pursuant to §5 of the German Federal Data Protection Act.
preserve business and company secrets according to §18 of the German Federal Law Against Unfair Competition.
ASSETARIS operates in accordance to the German Federal Data Protection Act. Place of data processing is Germany only.
The data center where the physical servers of ASSETARIS are hosted are provided with access control and regulated processes of accessing. Only employees of ASSETARIS have access to the physical servers.
With the SAM services of ASSETARIS customers get an overview of their current licensing status. ASSETARIS will treat this information with absolute discretion and confidentiality.
§8 Remuneration
The pricing depends on the number of processed physical computer systems. If a computer has not been physically detected but has been using a terminal session, this access is also seen as a physically processed unit.
Volume-rated pricing of ASSETARIS gives a reduction depending on the amount of physical computers processed. The prices can be adjusted by ASSETARIS every six month.
In the case of a difference between the amount of effectively processed computers and the amount of purchased ASSETARIS service licenses the customer is obliged to purchase the additional amount of licenses. The license balance considers only devices for which a valid ASSETARIS service license exist.
