AlphaCare Service Terms
Effective Date: May 1, 2025
Last Updated: May 1, 2025
These terms apply to all customers using the AlphaCare managed service program provided by Minnovation Technologies Pty Ltd. By placing an order, issuing a purchase order, or making payment for AlphaCare services, the customer agrees to the terms set out on this page.
1. What Is AlphaCare?
AlphaCare is a comprehensive managed service designed to support sensors and IoT infrastructure. It ensures your devices remain connected, supported, and operational through the following core components:
Data Access: Secure access to real-time and historical sensor data via dashboards and APIs. All data is hosted on Australian-based infrastructure to ensure compliance with data sovereignty and privacy regulations.
Communications Management: Provisioning and monitoring of network connectivity including LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, 4G, or other supported protocols. Connectivity diagnostics are included as part of the service.
Software Platform Access: Access to a web-based platform for data visualisation, rule creation, alerting, reporting, and device management.
Remote Support: Business hours helpdesk support, remote diagnostics, firmware updates, and technical troubleshooting.
Sensor Coverage: AlphaCare only applies to sensors that are enrolled in the service. Coverage includes network monitoring, firmware maintenance, and access to platform services.
2. Service Levels (SLA)
AlphaCare includes a defined Service Level Agreement (SLA) to ensure timely and effective issue resolution. All support tickets are prioritised based on operational impact and urgency.
Ticket Submission and Acknowledgment
Tickets must be submitted via:
– Minnovation Contact Page: https://minnovation.com.au/contact-us
– Email: [email protected]
All tickets are acknowledged within 4 business hours by our support team.
How Priority Is Determined
Ticket priority is assigned based on the following four criteria:
1. Strategic Importance – Related to a VIP customer, high-value project, or regulatory deliverable
2. Customer Urgency – Blocking operations or explicitly marked urgent by the customer
3. Impact Scope – Affects multiple users, systems, or critical infrastructure
4. Customer Visibility – Visible to end users or carries reputational risk if not resolved promptly
Priority Levels and Resolution Targets
| Criteria Met | Priority Level | Resolution Target (Business Days) | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| All 4 | Urgent | 1 Business Day | Major service outage or immediate operational risk |
| 3 | High | 5 Business Days | Significant disruption but not a full outage |
| 2 | Medium | 10 Business Days | Noticeable but non-critical issue or degradation |
| 0–1 | Low | 30 Business Days | Minor issues or feature requests with limited operational impact |
Note: Resolution time refers to the delivery of a workaround or permanent fix. Tickets may be reclassified if conditions change during investigation.
3. Billing and Renewals
AlphaCare is billed annually in advance per covered sensor unless otherwise specified.
A Proforma Invoice will be issued 60 days before each renewal date to assist with budget planning and purchase order processing. A valid Purchase Order must be submitted before renewal to ensure uninterrupted service. A formal tax invoice will follow upon PO receipt.
If coverage lapses, the customer must pay for all unpaid periods before AlphaCare services are reinstated. Sensors added during the service year are billed on a pro rata basis.
4. Data Ownership and Hosting
All sensor data remains the exclusive property of the customer. Minnovation stores all AlphaCare data on Australian-hosted infrastructure. We comply with relevant privacy and data protection laws and will never sell, disclose, or misuse customer data.
5. Security and Compliance
Minnovation adheres to best-practice security and compliance standards including:
– Australian data sovereignty and public sector requirements
– Cybersecurity frameworks aligned to ISO27001
– Access control, encryption, and continuous monitoring of systems
