Registration Agreement for multilingual domain names (with i-DNS.net)

A. GENERAL.

This Registration Agreement ("Agreement") is submitted by you to unicodeDN.com ("Registrar") for onward submission to i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd for the purpose of your application for registering, for your use only, an international domain name on the Internet. You agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement and the terms of Registrar's and i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd's Domain Name Dispute Policy ("Dispute Policy") which is incorporated herein by reference. If this Agreement is received by Registrar and a domain name is activated by i-DNS.net and registered for use in Registrar's domain name database, this Agreement will become effective and binding. You acknowledge that time is not of essence and that it may take up to 60 days to process your application. This Agreement shall be received at the offices of Registrar.

 

B. FEES AND PAYMENTS.

 

A Domain Name may be registered for a minimum period of one year and a maximum period of ten years. The registration of a Domain Name may be renewed at any time before expiry but no renewal can exceed the maximum registration period of ten years. A Domain Name must be registered or renewed in multiples of one year.

 

You agree to pay Registrar the registration/renewal fees within 7 days of invoice. You agree that if the fees are not paid accordingly, Registrar may in it sole discretion cancel your domain name registration and terminate this Agreement without liability.

You further acknowledge and agree that:

(a) i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd processes applications received from its various registrars including Registrar on a 'first come first served' basis;

(b) the Registrar will submit your application to i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd ONLY after the Registrar has collected full payment for the application from you or after full payment has been duly credited to the Registrar's accounts, as the case may be;

(c) upon receipt of full payment in accordance with (b) above, the Registrar will exercise its best efforts to submit your application to i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd with due dispatch;

(d) the submission of your application by the Registrar in accordance with (c) may not be successful as an earlier application may have been received by i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd; and

(e) neither the Registrar nor i-DNS.net will be liable to you for any failure to achieve registration or re-registration. Where registration or re-registration is unsuccessful, the Registrar shall refund payments made by you in full. If your domain name has been successfully registered in the registry (i-DNS.net), the registration fee you have paid is not refundable.

C. DISPUTE POLICY.

D. CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS TO DISPUTE POLICY.

J. EFFECT OF REGISTRATION.

You acknowledge and agree that Registrar processes domain name registration applications on a 'first come, first served' basis and that your registration of a domain name entitles you solely to the use of, and not to own, the domain name registered. Neither Registrar nor i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd has made nor makes any determination as to the proprietary rights to a or any name. Accordingly, you agree that the mere fact of a domain name registered by Registrar in your name does not confer any legal right or defence and does not confer immunity from objection to either the registration or use of the domain name. Further, you expressly acknowledge that any violation of this Agreement or the Dispute Policy will result in the termination of any and all rights you may have to use the domain name.

K. WARRANTIES.

You further represent and warrant that registering the domain name or the use of the domain name is not for any unlawful purpose or violates any applicable law, regulation, governmental policy or public policy. You agree that breach of these warranties will constitute a material breach and entitle Registrar and/or i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd to immediately suspend and/or cancel your domain name registration.

You agree that the domain name registration services provided by Registrar is made available to you on an "as is" basis. Registrar and i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd EACH DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES AND/OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS OF TITLE, MERCHANTABILITY OR SATISFACTORY QUALITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS.

L. RIGHT OF REFUSAL.

Registrar reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to refuse to register any domain name requested herein.

You agree that neither Registrar nor i-DNS.net International Pte Ltd shall be liable for any loss or damages that may result from Registrar's refusal to accept either the domain name or this Agreement.

M. SEVERABILITY.
