DOMAIN
NAME REGISTRATION
1. We do not warrant or guarantee that the domain name applied
for will be registered or is capable of being registered by
you. Accordingly, you should take no action in respect of
your requested domain name(s) until you have been notified
by us that your requested domain name has been fully registered.
During certain times an attempt to register your chosen domain
name may not commence immediately.
2. The registration of the domain name and its ongoing use
is subject to the relevant naming authority's terms and conditions
of use and you are responsible for ensuring that you are aware
of those terms and conditions and can and do comply with them.
You irrevocably waive any claims you may have against us in
respect of the decision of a naming authority to refuse to
register a domain name and, without limitation agree that
the administration charge paid by you to us shall be refundable
at our discretion. This does not affect your statutory rights
as a consumer.
3. We accept no responsibility in respect of the use of a
domain name by you and any dispute between you and any other
individual or organisation regarding a domain name must be
resolved between the parties concerned and we will take no
part in any such dispute. We reserve the right, on our becoming
aware of such a dispute, at our sole discretion and without
giving any reason, to either suspend or cancel the domain
name, and/or to make appropriate representations to the relevant
naming authority. This does not affect your statutory rights
as a consumer.
4. Once you enter a contract with NetMedia to purchase a Domain
Name, we will charge your card or invoice you immediately.
You must not under any circumstances order the same domain
from another registrar before or after entering into a contract
with NetMedia, as this will cause us unwarranted administration
problems & costs, and we will not be able to issue a refund
under those circumstances, whether we manage to obtain the
domain first or whether the other registrar obtains it for
you.
5. We will not be held liable for any losses (directly or
indirectly) caused by non registration or re-registration
of domains for whatever reason. The re-registration of domains
are solely the client's responsibility. However, we may attempt
to contact the owner of the domain in advance in order to
give the option to renew the registration of the domain through
NetMedia. This does not apply for domains that were ordered
and bought originally through another domain registration
company, and were transferred over to us afterwards.
6. Domain name registration is subject to the terms
and conditions of OpenSRS
and ICANN.
