123 Reg Domain Products Terms and Conditions
These Domain Products Terms and Conditions are supplemental to the General Terms and Conditions, including the Acceptable Use Policy and the Data Protection Policy and apply to the provision of any domain related services by 123 Reg Limited ("123 Reg"). The ordering of Domain services from 123 Reg constitutes acceptance by the Client of the General Terms and Conditions and these Domain Products Terms and Conditions.
1. General Domain Terms
1.1. The Client acknowledges that registration of a Domain is subject to third party terms and conditions including those from the relevant registry for the Domain extension. The Client confirms that it will at all times and in all respects comply with ICANN’s and any relevant registry’s terms and conditions for domain registration and use. Further, the Client indemnifies both 123 Reg and the applicable registry for a Domain in respect of the Client’s use of the Domain and in respect of the Client’s failure to comply with the terms of this Agreement or any failure to comply with ICANN or the registry’s terms and conditions.
1.2. The Client acknowledges and accepts that domain registration and renewal services are limited to the forwarding by 123 Reg of the Client’s request to register or renew a domain to the relevant registry for that domain. It is at all times the Client’s responsibility to check that a Domain has been registered and/or renewed with the registry as appropriate.
1.3. The Client warrants that the registration of a domain name requested by a Client (‘a Domain’) and the manner in which it is to be used, either directly or indirectly:
1.3.1. will not infringe any third party rights, including third party intellectual property rights;
1.3.2. Is not being made in bad faith or could otherwise be considered to be an abusive registration under the dispute resolution procedures or policies of any relevant registry or of ICANN; and
1.3.3. will at no time be used for an unlawful purpose whatsoever.
1.4. While 123 Reg shall use reasonable endeavours to register a Domain, the Client accepts that 123 Reg is not required to accept any request to register a Domain or to continue with any attempt to register a Domain if the Domain is not capable of registration.
1.5. 123 Reg makes no representations, express of implied, that a particular Domain is available for registration and 123 Reg accepts no liability for failure to register a Domain for any reason.
1.6. 123 Reg may from time to time change the registrar that a Domain is held with, at its discretion and without notice to the Client.
1.7. The Client accepts and consents to 123 Reg making the Client’s registration details in relation to the Domain available to third parties including ICANN and the applicable registry for the Domain as applicable including to law enforcement and governmental bodies as required by law.
1.8. The Client accepts and consents to the 123 Reg making publicly available certain of the Client’s information, for example by inclusion in the whois database, as required by law or for any other purpose required or permitted by ICANN, a relevant registry or any regulatory body. The Client consents to any and all such disclosures as set out in clauses 1.7 and 1.8 and waives any cause of action it may have against 123 Reg in this respect.
1.9. In the event that the Client has not purchased the Whois Privacy Service, the Client must ensure that its details on the whois database are accurate and current failing which the Domain may be suspended by 123 Reg, ICANN or the relevant registry until such time as the Client can prove that the details on the whois database are accurate.
1.10. The Client consents to Domains registered through 123 Reg having [locks] automatically applied to such Domains.
2. Domain Renewals
2.1. 123 Reg shall endeavour to automatically renew a Domain on a Client's behalf when it is due for renewal subject to the following:
2.1.1. the Client has a valid and up-to-date payment method of its account; and
2.1.2. the Client has not set the Domain to either cancel or manual renewal in the Client's control panel.
2.2. If either 2.1.1 or 2.1.2. above apply then 123 Reg shall not automatically renew a Domain and the Client is entirely responsible for any consequences of a Domain not being renewed.
2.3. Domains which are automatically renewed by 123 Reg will be ordinarily renewed for the same duration as the initial registration period. Clients may select a different renewal period by making amendments via the 'Domain Auto Renewals' section of the Client's control panel.
2.4. 123 Reg shall take payment for Domain renewals up to 7 days prior to the Domain renewal date in order to ensure that the Domain is renewed on time. 123 Reg shall endeavour to follow any payment priority set up on the Client's account, however, 123 Reg reserves the right to take payment from any stored payment method on the Client's account.
2.5. 123 Reg may request direct debit payments up to 15 days prior to the renewal date for a Domain and that payment will be taken 6 days after that initial request.
2.6. Domain renewals shall be charged at 123 Reg's prevailing rate at the time of the renewals. 123 Reg's prevailing rates can be located on 123 Reg's website.
2.7. If a Domain is not renewed by the applicable renewal date then the Domain shall become an Expired Domain and clause 6 below shall apply.
2.8. Most Domains can be registered and/or renewed for up to ten years, however, certain Domains are subject to restrictions on the length of initial registration or renewal. These restrictions are set by the respective registries and is set out in more detail here.
