Just as an FYI... my home is built with a walk out basement. I excavated into a slope to do so. Before I poured the slab I got to observe the cut in heavy rain. I was expecting to see a lot of horizontal run off. I saw none. Our ground is so pourous the water went straight down.

Nevertheless I thoroughly water proofed the below grade walls and installed an impact barrier. I've had no problems at all.
Assume the best and ask questions.
