2. Provisions Specific to All Registrations

Unless otherwise noted, the provisions below in this Section 2 are generally applicable to all TLDs that Cyberlogic offers. Special provisions specific to any TLD or ccTLD (those in addition to posted Registry Policies) are identified elsewhere below in this Agreement.

Registry Policies

You agree to be bound by all Registry Policies applicable to your domain name registration (at any level). It is your responsibility to visit the applicable TLD site and read and review all applicable Registry Policies prior to your registration in the TLD. Registry Policies for each TLD can be found by visiting the corresponding TLD link listed here. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Registry Operator of the TLD in which the domain name registration is made is and shall be an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement. As such, the parties to this agreement acknowledge and agree that the third party beneficiary rights of the Registry Operator have vested and that the Registry Operator has relied on its third party beneficiary rights under this Agreement in agreeing to Cyberlogic being an affiliate of a registrar for the respective TLD. The third party beneficiary rights of the Registry Operator will survive any termination of this Agreement.

Domain Activation

After you purchase a domain name you have to activate it within 96 hours by filling in the required information in hPanel. By buying a domain you confirm your understanding that as long as the domain is not activated, a right to the domain name is not reserved to you and anybody else is able to register the same domain name. The final registration of the domain name will be made on the name of the registrant who will be the first to activate the domain name by filling in the required information. Please be informed that i) in case you fail to activate the domain within 96 hours and somebody else activates the domain name before you, or ii) in case you fail to activate the domain within 12 months (regardless of whether or not someone else will activate it during that time), the domain name will be removed from your account and the refund will not be applicable. In the event somebody registers the same domain name within 96 hours from your purchase, you will be eligible for a refund as per Refund Policy.

3. Registration Requirements

To the extent any TLD or ccTLD requires you meet eligibility (e.g., residency for .EU, etc.), validation (e.g., DNS validation) or other authentication requirements as a condition to registering a domain name in the TLD, you agree that by submitting an application or registering or renewing your domain name, you represent and warrant that:

  1. All information provided to register or renew the domain name (including all supporting documents, if any) is true, complete and correct, and is not misleading in any way, and the application is made in good faith.
  2. You meet, and will continue to meet, the eligibility criteria prescribed in the Registry Policies for the applicable TLD for the duration of the domain name registration.
  3. You have not previously submitted an application for the domain name with another registrar using the same eligibility criteria, and the other registrar has rejected the application (if applicable).
  4. You acknowledge and agree that even if the domain name is accepted for registration, your entitlement to register the domain name may be challenged by others who claim to have an entitlement to the domain name.
  5. You acknowledge and agree that the Registry or the registrar can cancel the registration of the domain name if any of the warranties required are found to be untrue, incomplete, incorrect or misleading.

Ownership

You acknowledge and agree that registration of a domain name does not create any proprietary right for you, the registrar, or any other person in the name used as a domain name or the domain name registration and that the entry of a domain name in the Registry shall not be construed as evidence or ownership of the domain name registered as a domain name. You shall not in any way transfer or purport to transfer a proprietary right in any domain name registration or grant or purport to grant as security or in any other manner encumber or purport to encumber a domain name registration.

ICANN Requirements

You agree to comply with the ICANN requirements, standards, policies, procedures, and practices for which each applicable Registry Operator has monitoring responsibility in accordance with the Registry Agreement between ICANN and itself or any other arrangement with ICANN.

Indemnification of Registry

You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless (within 30 days of demand) the Registry Operator and Registry Service Provider and their subcontractors, subsidiaries, affiliates, divisions, shareholders, directors, officers, employees, accountants, attorneys, insurers, agents, predecessors, successors and assigns, from and against any and all claims, demands, damages, losses, costs, expenses, causes of action or other liabilities of any kind, whether known or unknown, including reasonable legal and attorney’s fees and expenses, in any way arising out of, relating to, or otherwise in connection with the your domain name registration, including, without limitation, the use, registration, extension, renewal, deletion, and/or transfer thereof and/or the violation of any applicable terms or conditions governing the registration.

Third Party Beneficiary

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Registry Operator for any TLD in which you register a domain name is and shall be an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement. As such, the parties to this agreement acknowledge and agree that the third party beneficiary rights of the Registry Operator have vested and that the Registry Operator has relied on its third party beneficiary rights under this Agreement in agreeing to Cyberlogic being an affiliate of the registrar for the TLD. Third party beneficiary rights of the Registry Operator shall survive any termination of this Agreement.

Variable and Non-Uniform Pricing

You acknowledge, understand and agree that certain domain names in certain TLDs are established by Registry Policies to be variably priced (i.e., standard v. premium names) and/or may have non-uniform renewal registration pricing (such that the Fee for a domain name registration renewal may differ from other domain names in the same TLD, e.g., renewal registration for one domain may be $20.00 and $10.00 for a different domain name).

Restriction on Availability of Privacy or Proxy

You acknowledge and agree that, as dictated by the Registry Policies, for certain TLDs you may not be permitted to purchase private TLD registrations. In such case, you must register for any and all TLD registrations using your personal information, which information you represent and warrant is current, accurate and complete.

4. Fees and Payments

(A) General Terms, Including Automatic Renewal Terms

You agree to pay any and all prices and fees due for Services purchased or obtained at this Site at the time you order the Services. Cyberlogic expressly reserves the right to change or modify its prices and fees at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be posted online at this Site and effective immediately without need for further notice to you. If you have purchased or obtained Services for a period of months or years, changes or modifications in prices and fees shall be effective when the Services in question come up for renewal as further described below. For all terms and conditions relating to fees, payment, refund, and billing, etc. applicable to the Services offered under the scope of this Agreement, please refer to the “Fees and Payments” section of our UTOS.

(B) Domain Name Renewal Terms

Automatic Renewal. Automatic Renewal is the default setting. Cyberlogic will automatically renew, for a period equivalent to the length of your original domain name registration, any domain name that is up for renewal and will take payment from the Payment Method you have on file with Cyberlogic at Cyberlogic's then-current rates.

Manual Renewal. If the automatic renewal is disabled for your domain, you have the responsibility of logging into the Domain Manager portion of your members area for that domain name and manually implementing the renewal by the expiration date (should you, in fact, want the domain name to be renewed). If you fail to manually implement the renewal before the expiration date, the domain name will expire and you will no longer have use of that name.

All renewals will be subject to the terms of this Agreement, as it may be amended from time to time, and you acknowledge and agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (as amended) for all renewed domains. Domain name renewals will be non-refundable. If for any reason Cyberlogic is not able to take the payment from the Payment Method you have on file, and you fail to respond to our notices, your domain name registration will expire. It is your responsibility to keep your Payment Method information current, which includes the expiration date if you are using a credit card.

For ccTLD .dk you must renew no later than 41 days prior to the expiration date, or your domain name will be placed in non-renewal status. For ccTLD .cz you must renew no later than 33 days, .de - 5 days(*), .ch and .fr - 3 days prior to the expiration date or your domain name will be placed in Redemption Grace Period (RGP) status.

Redemption Grace Periods vary for different ccTLDs. Please refer to the specific terms for the applicable TLD. In the event there is a conflict between the provisions of this paragraph and the ccTLD terms, the ccTLD terms shall control.

For .com domain names, whose registrar is Hosting Concepts B.V. (Openprovider) (you can always check your domain name registrar information in WHOIS Lookup), you will have a 10-days Renewal Grace Period calculated from the domain expiration date, during which you may renew your domain name free of charge.

You agree that Cyberlogic will not be responsible for canceled domain names that you fail to renew, either automatically or manually in the timeframes indicated in this Agreement. In any case, if you fail to renew your domain name in a timely fashion, additional charges may apply.

(C) Free Product Terms

In the event you are provided with free products with the registration of a domain name, you acknowledge and agree that such free products will only be available with a valid purchase and may be terminated in the event the domain name is deleted or canceled.

For free domain names, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) you shall register the domain name within 12 months from the date the free domain name was provided, otherwise, the free domain name will elapse, and (ii) you may not change the account associated with such free domain for the first five (5) days after registration.

5. Term of Agreement; Transfers; Domain Tasting

The term of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as long as you have any domain name registered through Cyberlogic. You agree that you will not transfer any domain name registered through Cyberlogic to another domain name registrar during the first sixty (60) days after its initial registration date. You further agree that you will not engage in "domain tasting" by using the refundable period in which you may choose to cancel a domain name and get a full refund of the registration fee as a vehicle to test the marketability or viability of a domain name. If Cyberlogic determines (which determination shall be made by Cyberlogic in its sole and absolute discretion) that you have been engaging in "domain tasting", then Cyberlogic reserves the right to (a) charge you a small fee (which fee shall be deducted from any refund issued) or (b) refuse your cancellation/refund request altogether. Cyberlogic will not charge you a fee if Cyberlogic cancels your domain name during the five (5) day grace period due to fraud or other activity outside of your control. You agree that Cyberlogic shall not be bound by (i) any representations made by third parties who you may use to purchase services from Cyberlogic or (ii) any statements of a general nature, which may be posted on Cyberlogic's website or contained in Cyberlogic's promotional materials.

Up to Date Information; Use of Information and Expiration

You agree to notify Cyberlogic within five (5) business days when any of the information you provided as part of the application and/or registration process changes. It is your responsibility to keep this information in a current and accurate status. Failure by you, for whatever reason, to provide Cyberlogic with accurate and reliable information on an initial and continual basis, shall be considered to be a material breach of this Agreement and a basis for suspension and/or cancellation of the domain name. Failure by you, for whatever reason, to respond within five (5) business days to any inquiries made by Cyberlogic to determine the validity of information provided by you, shall also be considered to be a material breach of this Agreement and a basis for suspension and/or cancellation of the domain name.

You agree to retain a copy for your record of the receipt for the purchase of your domain name. You agree that for each domain name registered by you, the following contact data is required: postal address, email address, and a telephone number for the Registered Name Holder and, if different from the Registered Name Holder, the same contact information for, a technical contact, an administrative contact, and a billing contact.

You acknowledge and agree that domain name registration requires that this contact information, in whole or in part, be shared with the registry operator, for their use, copying, distribution, publication, modification, and other processing for (among other uses in accordance with our Privacy Policy) the purpose of administration of the domain name registration, which may require such information be transferred back and forth across international borders, to and from the U.S. to the EU, for example.

You agree that, to the extent permitted by ICANN, Cyberlogic may make use of the publicly available information you provided during the registration process. If you engage in the reselling of domain names you agree to provide any individuals whose personal information you've obtained, information about the possible uses of their personal information pursuant to ICANN policy. You also agree to obtain consent, and evidence of consent, from those individuals for such use of the personal information they provide.

In order for us to comply with any current or future rules and policies for domain name systems including any rules or policies established by any provincial or federal government or by other organization having control or authority to establish rules or policies, you hereby grant to us the right to disclose to third parties through an interactive publicly accessible registration database the following information that you are required to provide when applying for a domain name:

You will be notified and given the opportunity to accept or decline the one-year renewal prior to your domain name expiration date. In the event you decide not to renew your one-year .INFO domain name for a second year, your domain name registration will automatically revert back to us and we will gain full rights of registration to such domain name. You agree that if you delete or transfer your .INFO domain name during the first year, you will automatically be charged the second year renewal fees.

13. PROVISIONS SPECIFIC TO .NAME REGISTRATIONS

Defensive Registration. A Defensive Registration is a registration designed for the protection of trademarks and service marks and may be granted to prevent a third party from registering a variation of a trademark or the exact trademark. If the name you wish to register is subject to a Defensive Registration, you have three (3) options: (i) you may register a variation of the name, (ii) you may challenge the Defensive Registration under the Eligibility Requirements Dispute Resolution Policy, or (iii) you may request Consent from the Defensive Registrant. You can request Consent by contacting the Defensive Registrant listed in the GNR Whois database and requesting consent to register the .NAME domain name. If the Defensive Registrant grants consent, they must confirm in writing that they grant consent. If the Defensive Registrant does not grant consent, you may wish to challenge the Defensive Registration under the ERDRP.

Acceptable Use Policy. You agree to be bound by the .NAME Acceptable Use Policy, which is hereby incorporated by reference. Among other limitations, this policy prohibits you from using your .NAME Email to engage in Spamming activities. You will be limited to a maximum of five hundred (500) messages sent from your .NAME at a time.

14. COUNTRY CODE TOP LEVEL DOMAINS

You represent and warrant that you meet the eligibility requirements of each ccTLD you apply for. You further agree to be bound by any registry rules, policies, and agreements for that particular ccTLD. These may include, but are not limited to, agreeing to indemnify the ccTLD provider, limiting the liability of the ccTLD provider, and requirements that any disputes be resolved under that particular country's laws.

15. PROVISIONS SPECIFIC TO .CN REGISTRATIONS

.CN is a restricted TLD – applications are subject to both a domain name check and real name verification as required by the People’s Republic of China. Registrations in .CN are therefore subject to the following additional terms:

Verification, Registration and Activation. If a domain name is not permitted to be registered by the Chinese government, as determined by CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED, the Registry Operator or a 3rd party provider utilized for such services and determinations, in either party’s discretion, the application for registration will not be successful. In such event, the name will be deleted and you will be eligible for a refund as further described below. If permitted, then the Registration may proceed. However, a .CN domain name may not be activated (i.e., it will not resolve in the Internet) unless and until you have submitted (via the process described during registration) valid documents required of us to perform real name verification. The following are acceptable forms of documents for the purpose of verification: valid resident ID, temporary resident ID, business license or organization code certificate from China, a valid driver’s license, passport or business license from Hong Kong, Singapore or Taiwan OR a valid driver’s license or passport from Australia, Canada, or the United States. Documents submitted to us are used solely for the purpose of real name verification, and are stored in the U.S. and are otherwise subject to our Privacy Policy.

Refunds. Refunds for .CN Registrations will only be allowed where (i) registration of the applied for domain name is not permitted by the Chinese government; or (ii) you notify CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED of your intent to cancel for any reason within the first five (5) days after the Registration (i.e., after it is deemed permissible by the Chinese government). For the avoidance of doubt, refunds will not be permitted under any circumstances after five (5) days from the date of Registration, including, for example, in the event real name verification is not successful or if the Chinese government determines after Registration that the domain name should not have been registered (and directs us to delete).

16. PROVISIONS SPECIFIC TO OTHER REGISTRATIONS

For ccTLDs not mentioned in this agreement, another registration agreement applies.

Your ability to use any of the services provided by CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED is subject to cancellation or suspension in the event there is an unresolved breach of this Agreement and/or suspension or cancellation is required by any policy now in effect or adopted later by ICANN;

Your registration of any domain names shall be subject to suspension, cancellation or transfer pursuant to any ICANN adopted specification or policy, or pursuant to any CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED procedure not inconsistent with an ICANN adopted specification or policy (a) to correct mistakes by CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED or the registry operator in registering any domain name; or (b) for the resolution of disputes concerning any domain name.

  • The transmission of unsolicited email (Spam); and
  • Repetitive, high volume inquiries into any of the services provided by CYBERLOGIC INNOVATIONS PRIVATE LIMITED (i.e. domain name availability, etc.).

Activities prohibited by the laws of the EU and/or foreign territories in which you conduct business;

Activities designed to encourage unlawful behavior by others, such as hate crimes, terrorism and child pornography; and

Activities designed to harm or use unethically minors in any way.
