subject to suspension, cancellation, or
transfer pursuant to any ICANN-adopted
policy, or pursuant to any registrar or
registry procedure not inconsistent with
an ICANN-adopted policy, (1) to correct
mistakes by Registrar or the Registry
in registering the name or (2) for the
resolution of disputes concerning the
SLD name.
-
AGENCY. Should you intend to license
use of a domain name to a third party
you shall nonetheless be the SLD holder
of record and are therefore responsible
for providing your own full contact information
and for providing and updating accurate
technical and administrative contact information
adequate to facilitate timely resolution
of any problems that arise in connection
with the SLD. You shall accept liability
for harm caused by wrongful use of the
SLD, unless you promptly disclose the
identity of the licensee to the party
providing you reasonable evidence of actionable
harm. You also represent that you have
provided notice of the terms and conditions
in this Agreement to the third party and
that the third party agrees to the terms
of Disclosure and Use of Registration
Information (sections 18 and 19 of this
Agreement).
-
ANNOUNCEMENTS. We and the RSP reserve
the right to distribute information to
you that is pertinent to the quality or
operation of our services and those of
our service partners. These announcements
will be predominately informative in nature
and may include notices describing changes,
upgrades, new products or other information
to add security or to enhance your identity
on the Internet.
-
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. You agree
that our entire liability, and your exclusive
remedy, with respect to any Services(s)
provided under this Agreement and any
breach of this Agreement is solely limited
to the amount you paid for such Service(s).
We and our contractors shall not be liable
for any direct, indirect, incidental,
special or consequential damages resulting
from the use or inability to use any of
the Services or for the cost of procurement
of substitute services. Because some states
do not allow the exclusion or limitation
of liability for consequential or incidental
damages, in such states, our liability
is limited to the extent permitted by
law. We disclaim any and all loss or liability
resulting from, but not limited to: (1)
loss or liability resulting from access
delays or access interruptions; (2) loss
or liability resulting from data non-delivery
or data mis-delivery; (3) loss or liability
resulting from acts of God; (4) loss or
liability resulting from the unauthorized
use or misuse of your account identifier
or password; (5) loss or liability resulting
from errors, omissions, or misstatements
in any and all information or services(s)
provided under this Agreement; (6) loss
or liability resulting from the interruption
of your Service. You agree that we will
not be liable for any loss of registration
and use of your domain name, or for interruption
of business, or any indirect, special,
incidental, or consequential damages of
any kind (including lost profits) regardless
of the form of action whether in contract,
tort (including negligence), or otherwise,
even if we have been advised of the possibility
of such damages. In no event shall our
maximum liability exceed five hundred
($200.00) dollars.
-
INDEMNITY. You agree to release,
indemnify, and hold us, our contractors,
agents, employees, officers, directors
and affiliates harmless from all liabilities,
claims and expenses, including without
limitation VeriSign, Inc., and the directors,
officers, employees and agents of each
of them, including attorney's fees, of
third parties relating to or arising under
this Agreement, the Services provided
hereunder or your use of the Services,
including without limitation infringement
by you, or someone else using the Service
with your computer, of any intellectual
property or other proprietary right of
any person or entity, or from the violation
of any of our operating rules or policy
relating to the service(s) provided. You
also agree to release, indemnify and hold
us harmless pursuant to the terms and
conditions contained in the Dispute Policy.
When we are threatened with suit by a
third party, we may seek written assurances
from you concerning your promise to indemnify
us; your failure to provide those assurances
may be considered by us to be a breach
of your Agreement and may result in deactivation
of your domain name.
-
TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP. The person
named as registrant on the WHOIS shall
be the registered name holder. The person
named as administrative contact at the
time the controlling user name and password
are secured shall be deemed the designate
of the registrant with the authority to
manage the domain name. You agree that
prior to transferring ownership of your
domain name to another person (the Transferee")
you shall require the Transferee to agree,
in writing to be bound by all the terms
and conditions of this Agreement. Your
domain name will not be transferred until
we receive such written assurances or
other reasonable assurance that the Transferee
has been bound by the contractual terms
of this Agreement (such reasonable assurance
as determined by us in our sole discretion)
along with the applicable transfer fee.
If the Transferee fails to be bound in
a reasonable fashion (as determine by
us in our sole discretion) to the terms
and conditions in this Agreement, any
such transfer will be null and void.
-
BREACH. You agree that failure
to abide by any provision of this Agreement,
any operating rule or policy or the Dispute
Policy provided by us, may be considered
by us to be a material breach and that
we may provide a written notice, describing
the breach, to you. If within thirty (30)
calendar days of the date of such notice,
you fail to provide evidence, which is
reasonably satisfactory to us, that you
have not breached your obligations under
the Agreement, then we may delete the
registration or reservation of your domain
name. Any such breach by you shall not
be deemed to be excused simply because
we did not act earlier in response to
that, or any other breach by you.
-
NO GUARANTY. You agree that, by
registration or reservation of your chosen
domain name, such registration or reservation
does not confer immunity from objection
to either the registration, reservation,
or use of the domain name.

to respond to inquiries by us addressed

Each domain name in the world must be unique - only one company can register and utilize yourdomain.com. However, there are very few restrictions on domain names - anyone may register just about any domain name they wish. As a result, more than thousands of .com, .net and .org domain names are registered every day, effectively removing these domains from availability. So act fast now !! There is a strong possibility that if you do not register your domain name, another company or individual will!
