Domain Registration
Agreement .ca
|
| |
In order that a party may hold a valid .ca domain name
registration, TUCOWS, requires that all registrants adhere
to certain terms and conditions. As an organisation or
individual applying to register, transfer or renew an
.ca domain name via the agency of Telligent Corporation
Ltd. and/or TUCOWS you accordingly agree as follows: |
|
| |
| 1. AGREEMENT. In this Registration Agreement
("Agreement") , "we", us" and "our" refer to TUCOWS Inc.
and “Services” refers to the domain name registration,
transfer or renewal services provided by us as offered
through Telligent Corporation, the Registration Service
Provider (“RSP”). CIRA shall refer to the entity granted
the exclusive right to administer the registry for .ca
domain name registrations. |
| |
| 2. SELECTION OF A DOMAIN NAME. You represent
that, to the best of the your knowledge and belief, neither
the registration of the domain name nor the manner in
which it is directly or indirectly used infringes the
legal rights of a third party and that the domain name
is not being registered for any unlawful purpose. |
| |
| 3. FEES. As consideration for the Services you
have selected, you agree to pay to us, or your respective
RSP who remits payment to us on your behalf, the applicable
fees. All fees payable hereunder are non-refundable. As
further consideration for the Services, 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"). You, by completing and submitting this
Agreement represent that the statements in your application
are true. |
| |
| 4. TERM. You agree that this Agreement will remain
in full force during the term of your domain name registration
as selected, recorded, and paid for upon registration
of the domain name. Should you choose to renew the term
of your domain name registration, then the term of this
Agreement will be extended accordingly. Should you transfer
your domain name or should the domain name otherwise be
transferred to another Registrar, the terms and conditions
of this contract shall cease and shall be replaced by
the contractual terms in force between domain name registrants
and the new Registrar. |
| |
| 5. MODIFICATIONS TO AGREEMENT. You agree, during
the period of this Agreement, that we may: (1) revise
the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and (2) change
the services provided under this Agreement. Any such revision
or change will be binding and effective immediately on
posting of the revised Agreement or change to the service(s)
on our web site, or on notification to you by e-mail or
regular mail as per the Notices section of this agreement.
You agree to review our web site, including the Agreement,
periodically to be aware of any such revisions. If you
do not agree with any revision to the Agreement, you may
terminate this Agreement at any time by providing us with
notice by e-mail or regular mail as per the Notices section
of this agreement. Notice of your termination will be
effective on receipt and processing by us. You agree that,
by continuing to use the Services following notice of
any revision to this Agreement or change in service(s),
you shall abide by any such revisions or changes. You
further agree to abide by the CIRA dispute resolution
policy (“Dispute Policy”) as amended from time to time.
You agree that, by maintaining the reservation or registration
of your domain name after modifications to the Dispute
Policy become effective, you have agreed to these modifications.
You acknowledge that if you do not agree to any such modifications,
you may request that your domain name be deleted from
the domain name database. |
| |
| 6. MODIFICATIONS TO YOUR ACCOUNT. In order to
change any of your account information with us, you must
use your account identifier and password that you selected
when you opened your account with us. Please safeguard
your account identifier and password from any unauthorized
use. In no event will we be liable for the unauthorized
use or misuse of your account identifier or password.
|
| |
7. Domain Name Renewals. It is your responsibility to keep track of the expiry date of your Domain Name and renew in time. For your convenience Telligent Corporation will send several renewal reminders well in advance before the expiry date. It is your responsibility to keep your contact email address current. Telligent will notify you only by email. You have the responsibility of logging into your account and manually implementing the renewal by the expiration date (should you in fact want the domain name to be renewed). In case, if you fail to implement the renewal in a timely fashion the domain name will be cancelled and you will no longer have use of that name. You agree that Telligent Corporation will not be responsible for cancelled or expired domain names that you fail to renew. If you renew a domain after the expiry date, there will be an additional charge per domain.
In the process of registering or renewing a domain Telligent Corporation takes all the necessary steps to prevent any errors. As a client/registrant after placing your registration or renewal order it is your responsibility to check the correctness of domain name, expiry date and contact information. In case of any discrepancy please notify our support team immediately. |
| |
| 8. DOMAIN NAME DISPUTE POLICY. If you reserved
or registered a domain name through us, or transferred
a domain name to us from another registrar, you agree
to be bound by the Dispute Policy which is incorporated
herein and made a part of this Agreement by reference.
The current version of the Dispute Policy may be found
at the CIRA website. Please take the time to familiarize
yourself with this policy. |
| |
| 9. DOMAIN NAME DISPUTES. You agree that, if the
registration or reservation of your domain name is challenged
by a third party, you will be subject to the provisions
specified in the Dispute Policy in effect at the time
of the dispute. You agree that in the event a domain name
dispute arises with any third party, you will indemnify
and hold us harmless pursuant to the terms and conditions
contained in the Dispute Policy. |
| |
| 10. CIRA POLICY. You agree that your registration
of the domain name shall be subject to suspension, cancellation,
or transfer pursuant to any CIRA-adopted policy, or pursuant
to any registrar or registry procedure not inconsistent
with an CIRA-adopted policy, (1) to correct mistakes by
a registrar or the registry in registering the name or
(2) for the resolution of disputes concerning the domain
name. |
| |
| 11. AGENCY. Should you intend to license use
of a domain name to a third party you shall nonetheless
be the domain name registrant 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 domain name. You shall accept liability for harm
caused by wrongful use of thedomain name. 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). |

| 12. 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.

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 jurisdictions do
not allow the exclusion or limitation of liability for
consequential or incidental damages, in such jurisdictions,
our liability is limited to the extent permitted by law.

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;

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. |

and hold us, our contractors, agents, employees,officers,
directors and affiliates harmless from all liabilities,

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 CIRA 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. |
| |
| 15. TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP. Any transfer of ownership
in and to a domain name registration shall be affected
in accordance with CIRA policies and procedures. |
| |
| 16. BREACH. You agree that failure to abide by
any provision of this Agreement, any operating rule or
policy or the Dispute Policy, 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. |
| |
| 17. 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. |
