By using the service(s) provided by us under this Agreement, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Dispute Policy and any pertinent rules or policies that are or may be published by Active Registrar, Inc.

We may elect to accept or reject your domain name registration application for any reason at its sole discretion, such rejection including, but not limited to, rejection due to a request for registration of a prohibited domain name.

1. Our Services

Active Registrar, Inc. is an accredited registrar with the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ("ICANN") for Top Level Domain Names (TLDs). ICANN oversees registrations and other aspects of the TLDs. As an accredited domain registrar, Active Registrar, Inc. is, upon accepting your domain name registration application, your billing sponsor for that application. All domain name registrations we register for TLDs are not effective until we have delivered the domain name registration information you provide us to the registry administrator for the TLDs, as applicable, and the registry administrator puts into effect your domain name registration.

You agree and acknowledge that Active Registrar, Inc. is not liable or responsible in any way for any errors, omissions or any other actions by the registry administrator arising out of or related to your application and receipt of, or failure to receive, a domain name registration.

You further agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the registry administrator and its directors, officers, employees, and agents from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including any direct, indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages and reasonable legal fees and expenses) arising out of, or related to, your domain name registration.

2. What We Do Not Do

We cannot and do not check to see whether the domain name you select, or the use you make of the domain name, infringes legal rights of others. We urge you to investigate to see whether the domain name you select or its use infringes legal rights of others, and in particular we suggest you seek advice of competent counsel. You may wish to consider seeking one or more trademark registrations in connection with your domain name. You should be aware that there is the possibility we might be ordered by a court to cancel, modify, or transfer your domain name. You should also be aware that if we are sued or threatened with lawsuit in connection with your domain name, we may turn to you to hold us harmless and to indemnify us.

3. Fees

As consideration for the domain name registration services and/or other services provided by Active Registrar, Inc. to you, you agree to pay us, prior to the effectiveness of the desired domain name registration, the applicable service(s) fees for the initial registration of the domain name and, should you choose to renew the registration, subsequent renewals of the registration. All fees are non-refundable, for any reason after your domain name is registered with Internic's central registry, even if you are forced to relinquish the domain name as a result of copyright or trademark violation. However, we will refund the registration fees to you, in the event that your registration is unsuccessful for any reason. As long as the domain name is not registered, you will get your money back.

The domain registration fees is only applied for the registration, transfer, or renewal of your domain name. All the current domain services are provided as complimentary services except when explicit charges are stated. We reserve the rights to cancel, withdraw and/or amend these services at any time.

Your requested domain name will not be registered unless we receive actual payment of the registration fee. As further consideration for the Active Registrar, Inc. service(s), you agree to: (1) provide certain current, complete and accurate information about you as required by the registration process and (2) maintain and update this information as needed to keep it current, complete and accurate. All such information shall be referred to as account information ("Account Information").

In the event of a charge back by a credit card company (or similar action by another payment provider allowed by us) in connection with the payments of the registration fee for your domain name registration, you agree and acknowledge that the domain name registration shall be transferred to Active Registrar, Inc. as the paying entity for that registration to the registry. We will reinstate your domain name registration solely at our discretion, and subject to our receipt of the initial registration or renewal fee and our reinstatement fee, currently set at US$50.

We will attempt to notify you via an email message or via your account information when renewal fees are due. Should these fees go unpaid after the expiration date of your domain name, your registration will be cancelled. It is your responsibility as the domain owner to ensure that your domain name is renewed promptly. Subsequent request to reactivate your domain name will be charged at US$5 for each domain to be reactivated, on top of the applicable renewal fees. Payment must be made by credit card or such other method as we may indicate in the registration application or renewal form. We will renew your name for you provided your credit card or other billing information is available and up to date, unless you instruct us otherwise within the time specified. If your billing information is not accurate and you wish to renew your domain name registration, we will contact you to update this information and charge you accordingly.
