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 Dispute Policy.
Please take the time to familiarize yourself with
this policy.
8. 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. For any dispute,
you agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the
courts of The Province of Ontario.
9. ICANN POLICY. You agree that your registration
of the SLD name shall be subject to suspension,
cancellation, or transfer pursuant to any ICANN-adopted
policy, or pursuant to any registrar or registry
procedure not inconsistent with an ICANN-adopted
policy, (1) to correct mistakes by Registrar or
the Registry in registering the name or (2) for
the resolution of disputes concerning the SLD
name.
10. AGENCY. Should you intend to license use
of a domain name to a third party you shall nonetheless
be the SLD holder 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 SLD.
You shall accept liability for harm caused by
wrongful use of the SLD, unless you promptly disclose
the identity of the licensee to the party providing
you reasonable evidence of actionable harm. 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).
11. 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.
12. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. You agree that our
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 states do not allow the exclusion
or limitation of liability for consequential or
incidental damages, in such states, our liability
is limited to the extent permitted by law. We
disclaim any and all loss or liability resulting
from, 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; (3) loss or liability resulting
from acts of God; (4) loss or liability resulting
from the unauthorized use or misuse of your account
identifier or password; (5) loss or liability
resulting from errors, omissions, or misstatements
in any and all information or services(s) provided
under this Agreement; (6) loss or liability resulting
from the interruption of your Service. You agree
that we will not be liable for any loss of registration
and 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. In no event shall
our maximum liability exceed five hundred ($500.00)
dollars.
13. INDEMNITY. You agree to release, indemnify,
and hold us, our contractors, agents, employees,
officers, directors and affiliates harmless from
all liabilities, claims and expenses, including
without limitation Network Solutions, Inc., and
the directors, officers, employees and agents
of each of them, including attorney's fees, of
third parties relating to or arising under this
Agreement, the Services provided hereunder or
your use of the Services, including without limitation
infringement by you, or someone else using the
Service with your computer, of any intellectual
property or other proprietary right of any person
or entity, 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 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.
14. TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP. The person named as
administrative contact at the time the controlling
user name and password are secured shall be the
owner of the domain name. You agree that prior
to transferring ownership of your domain name
to another person (the Transferee") you shall
require the Transferee to agree, in writing to
be bound by all the terms and conditions of this
Agreement. Your domain name will not be transferred
until we receive such written assurances or other
reasonable assurance that the Transferee has been
bound by the contractual terms of this Agreement
(such reasonable assurance as determined by us
in our sole discretion) along with the applicable
transfer fee. If the Transferee fails to be bound
in a reasonable fashion (as determine by us in
our sole discretion) to the terms and conditions
in this Agreement, any such transfer will be null
and void.
15. BREACH. You agree that failure to abide by
any provision of this Agreement, any operating
rule or policy or the Dispute Policy provided
by us, 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.
16.
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.

your use of our Services is solely at your own
risk. You agree that such Service(s) is provided
