Website maintenance, whether under an Annual Agreement or otherwise, is defined as:

Up to an average of fifteen (15) minutes per regular web page per month, including updating links and making minor changes to a sentence or paragraph. It does not include replacing more than 25% of the text from a page with new text, page reconstruction, new pages, navigation structure changes, or repair of any action taken by Client or Client's Authorized Agent that negatively impacts or otherwise damages the functionality or appearance of the website. In the case of Annual Agreements, the period of 12 months begins on the date the Client's website is available to be published to Client's hosting service or 30 days from the date the agreement was signed, whichever comes first.
