Domain Name Registration Terms &
Conditions
-
Domain Name Services. This
document (the "DNS Terms") describes the rights and obligations of
ITSSN and the Customer in connection with ITSSN's registration or
renewal of domain names for the Customer.
-
Domain Name Registration.
Upon Customer's request and subject to these DNS Terms, ITSSN will
register an Internet domain name, or renew the Customer's
registration of an existing domain name, on behalf of Customer with
a registrar selected by ITSSN and identified below (the
"Registrar").
-
Customer Responsibilities.
ITSSN's registration or renewal of any domain name is subject to (i)
ITSSN receiving from Customer all information needed from Customer
in order to complete such registration, (ii) such domain name not
being in violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation or the
policies of the applicable Registrar or registry, and (iii)
Customer's compliance with these DNS Terms. Registration of a domain
name is subject to availability of such domain name for
registration, and ITSSN will not be responsible if a domain name is
not available for any reason. ITSSN will also not be responsible for
any infringement of third-party rights caused by its registration of
a domain name for Customer. Customer waives any claims it may have
against ITSSN for, and hereby releases ITSSN of and from, any loss,
damage, liability or expense arising out of, or relating to, the
registration of such domain name in any online or offline network
directories, membership lists or registration lists, or the release
of the domain name from such directories or lists following the
termination of services by ITSSN for any reason.
-
ICANN and Other Authority.
Customer acknowledges that its rights to any domain name registered or
renewed by ITSSN are not being granted by ITSSN but are subject to
the rules and regulations of ICANN, the Registrar, the registry and
applicable law. Customer's inability to use a domain name shall not
entitle Customer to a refund by ITSSN of any fees paid with respect
to the registration of such unusable domain name. The domain name
for the Customer Web site shall be the property of Customer.
-
Domain Name Renewals. If
Customer requests ITSSN to renew for multiple years a prior
registration of Customer for a domain name, Customer represents and
warranties that all information it provides to ITSSN in connection
with such request will be true and correct. ITSSN's sole
responsibility in connection with any such request will be to
process the renewal using the renewal mechanism provided by the
Registrar. ITSSN will have no responsibility or liability for any
loss, interruption in service, service error or loss of data caused
by the Registrar.
-
Registrar Terms and Conditions.
The Customer agrees to the terms and conditions of such registrar
posted on their web site of such Registrar from time to time.
-
Changing Registrars.
ITSSN does not generally perform domain name services that require the
domain name change registrars. However, if ITSSN, in its sole
discretion accepts an Order from Customer for domain name services
that requires that the domain name change registrars, the Customer
acknowledges that it is solely responsible for complying with the
acknowledgement policies of the losing registrar. Such
acknowledgement policies may require the Customer to respond to an
e-mail sent to the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact of
the domain name, as reflected in the WHOIS database of the losing
registrar. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that neither ITSSN
nor the gaining Registrar will bear any liability or responsibility
for any delay, inconvenience or expiration of domain name
registration that occurs as a consequence of the Customer's failure
to respond timely to any losing registrar query or request for
confirmation.
-
Changing Registrar Resellers.
If the Customer submits an Order to ITSSN to renew a domain name that
was previously registered through a reseller of the Registrar, the
Customer acknowledges that it is solely responsible for complying
with the acknowledgement policies of the losing reseller and the
Registrar. Such acknowledgement policies may require the Customer to
respond to an e-mail sent to the e-mail address for the
Administrative Contact of the domain name, as reflected in the WHOIS
database of the losing registrar, and may also require the Customer
to settle any open accounts it has with the losing reseller. The
Customer acknowledges and agrees that ITSSN will bear no liability
or responsibility for any delay, inconvenience or expiration of
domain name registration that occurs as a consequence of the
Customer's failure to satisfy the acknowledgment policies of the
losing reseller or the Registrar.
-
Renewal and Expiration. The
Customer agrees that ITSSN bears no responsibility or obligation to
notify Customer of any impending domain name expiration dates and
that the Customer is wholly responsible for such deadlines. Although
ITSSN may accept Orders for domain name renewals within the
forty-five-day (45) day period prior to the impending expiration
date of a domain name, ITSSN will have no responsibility for any
expiration of a domain name that occurs with respect to any Order
submitted to ITSSN within such period.
-
Contact Information. The
Customer agrees to keep its WHOIS information accurate and
up-to-date. The Customer must cause the e-mail address for the
Administrative Contact to be the same as the Customer's e-mail
address maintained in ITSSN's billing records. If the e-mail address
for the Administrative Contact is not the same as the Customer's
e-mail address maintained in ITSSN's billing records, ITSSN may (but
will have no duty to) change the e-mail address for the
Administrative Contact in the WHOIS records of the registrar.
-
Other Terms and Conditions.
The provisions of Sections 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15 of the
Terms of Service
are incorporated herein by this reference. All fees are fully earned
when due and non-refundable when paid.
-
Under Construction Page.
Customer agrees that upon registration of a domain name with ITSSN, if
such domain name is (a) hosted on an ITSSN domain name server and
(b) does not otherwise resolve to an active Web site, such domain
name will be pointed to a page as designated by ITSSN in its sole
discretion (the "Under Construction Page"). The Under Construction
Page may be modified by ITSSN at any time in ITSSN's sole discretion
and without notice to Customer. The Under Construction Page may
include, without limitation (i) links to additional products and
services offered by ITSSN, (ii) advertisements for products and
services offered by third-parties, and (iii) an Internet search
engine (the "Additional Content"). If Customer does not wish to have
Customer's domain name resolve to the Under Construction Page as
described herein, Customer should the access DNS Manager to disable
the Under Construction Page. Customer may access the DNS Manager by
visiting Support Page
or call an ITSSN sales representative.
