Protec Web Solutions Ltd - Domain Name Registration & Dispute Policy

Note: For the purpose of this document Protec Web Solutions Ltd will be referenced as PWS

This Service Agreement ("Agreement") sets forth the terms and conditions of our agreement relating to your use of the domain name registration services provided by PWS to register an Internet domain name, as well as the registration of the domain name.

To complete the registration process, you must acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all the terms and conditions of this Agreement, any rules or policies that are or may be published by PWS from time to time, and the rules and regulations set forth by the registry administrators for the respective registries. This Agreement will become effective upon acceptance by PWS..

PWS may at its sole discretion, elect to accept or reject any application for registration of domain name for any reason, including but not limited to, rejection due to a request for registration of a prohibited domain name.

ICANN oversees the .com, .org and .net top-level domains. Nominet oversees the .co.uk, .org.uk, .ltd.uk and .plc.uk top-level domains.

Upon PWS’ receipt of domain name registration information from you, PWS shall submit the information to the registry administrator for the appropriate top-level domain for approval and processing. The registry administrator then puts into effect the domain name registration.

Fees:
As consideration for PWS providing domain name registration services to you, you agree to pay PWS, prior to the approval of the desired domain name registration, the amounts set forth in the PWS Price Schedule, as amended from time to time, for the initial registration of the domain name and any subsequent renewals.

Your application will not be registered until PWS receives actual payment of the registration fee. If PWS does register a domain name prior to payment of the registration fee, PWS reserves the right to cancel that registration or restrict use of the domain name until payment has been received.

All fees must be prepaid and are non-refundable, in whole or in part, even if the domain name registration is suspended, cancelled or transferred prior to the end of the registration term.

In the event of a charge back by a credit card company or other payment provider authorized by PWS, the domain name registration shall be transferred to PWS as the paying entity for the registration. PWS may reinstate your domain name registration at its sole discretion upon its receipt of the registration or renewal fee and its then current reinstatement fee. The reinstatement fee is currently UK £50.

Payment must be made by credit card or other methods we indicate in registration application or renewal form. We make no commitment to renew your domain for you upon its expiry, however we may contact you before the expiry date to remind you.
