01
Engagement principles
The following commitments define how MAR structures customer relationships. They balance velocity with durability so that teams can innovate without sacrificing governance.
- 01
Plain-language agreements
We draft contracts in accessible language so founders, legal teams, and operators can align quickly. Legal definitions appear alongside operational examples, reducing ambiguity during rollout. You receive version history for every clause so negotiations remain transparent.
- 02
Service availability commitments
MAR targets 100% monthly uptime across core services, excluding scheduled maintenance windows announced at least seven days in advance. If an outage breaches our service level, customers receive service credits or tailored remediation as described in their order form. We post postmortems within forty-eight hours detailing root cause and long-term fixes.
- 03
Backward compatibility discipline
API and interface changes are introduced with deprecation windows of no less than one hundred eighty days. We provide migration guides, sample code, and office hours to ensure smooth transitions. Breaking changes require explicit customer acknowledgement before rollout.
- 04
Mission alignment checkpoints
Every engagement begins with a mutual success plan capturing deliverables, owners, and measurable impact targets. We revisit the plan each month to confirm assumptions still hold. If goals shift, we renegotiate scope instead of silently changing the workstream.
- 05
Transparent billing
Invoices reflect the pricing schedule attached to your agreement, with line items that map to modules, usage bands, and professional services. We give fourteen days notice before any subscription renewal and highlight opportunities to scale down unused capacity. Late payment policies include grace periods and collaborative remediation plans rather than automatic suspension.
- 06
Fair use parameters
We support ambitious workloads, but automated abuse, scraping, or stress-testing outside agreed scopes is prohibited. If traffic threatens platform stability, we coordinate throttling strategies instead of enforcing silent blocks. Customers receive metrics dashboards to monitor their own consumption.
- 07
Collaborative roadmap input
Customers may submit feature requests through the MAR feedback portal, where they can vote, comment, and track progress. While we cannot guarantee prioritization, we disclose whether a request is on the roadmap, under review, or out of scope. High-impact requests may evolve into co-development projects with shared milestones.
- 08
Resilience-first architecture
We operate redundant infrastructure across multiple availability zones with automated failover. Disaster recovery drills verify that recovery time and recovery point objectives remain within contracted thresholds. Customers receive the drill summaries and are welcome to attend tabletop reviews.
- 09
Support expectations
Standard support includes business-day ticket response within four hours and priority incident paging. Enhanced plans add twenty-four-seven coverage, named solution engineers, and quarterly architecture reviews. We measure support quality through satisfaction surveys and publish aggregated outcomes.
- 10
Product integrity
We do not include third-party code with restrictive licenses or known vulnerabilities in our builds. Supply chain monitoring ensures dependencies are patched promptly. Customers can request a software bill of materials for audit purposes.
- 11
Responsible AI use
Generative and predictive features include guardrails to prevent misuse, bias amplification, or harmful automation. Customers must configure acceptable use policies for their teams, and MAR provides templates to accelerate that work. We encourage ongoing review of model behavior and will collaborate on retraining when needed.
- 12
Customer advocacy
When regulator or stakeholder questions arise, MAR drafts technical narratives explaining architecture, controls, and mitigations. Our leadership team is available for joint briefings to demonstrate accountability. We treat your reputation as an extension of our own.
