While they do not have direct SLAs, they still have to comply with rules enforced by browser vendors, as they will remove you from CT checks and you'll be marked retired/untrusted (you can find some in the above list).
This means a 99% uptime on a 90 day rolling average, a 1 minute update frequency for new entries (24 hours on an older RFC). No split views, strict append-only, sharding by year, etc.
