These are the terms on which we supply to you domain name registration and other services.
2.Outline
These terms consist of:
a 'general' section, that applies to all our services and all your dealings with us; and
a series of 'specific' sections that each apply only to certain kinds of domain name.
To the extent of any inconsistency between them, a specific section overrides the general section.
3.Background
We do not operate the domain name system, or grant licences for domain names. Those things are done by 'registry operators', who are
independent of us and beyond our control.
We are a domain name 'registrar'. That means:
We can arrange for domain name licences to be granted to you by various registry operators, subject to their rules and licence
terms and the policies and requirements of .
We can carry out some limited functions on behalf of registry operators.
We can serve as a 'registrar of record' i.e. the intermediary between a domain name licensee and a registry operator, as recognised by the registry operator.
We can provide online facilities for you to administer your domain names.
We may also provide other, related services.
This document contains the terms that apply between you and us when we provide our services as registrar.
It also indicates the licence terms that are imposed by various registry operators and ICANN. A domain name licence that we
arrange for you is subject to the licence terms and conditions of the registry operator who grants the licence and the requirements of ICANN.
For as long as we are registrar of record for a domain name, there is a 'registration agreement' between us and its registrant on these terms.

Other rules of interpretation:
If an expression is defined in the dictionary in clause 4, that is what it means.
If an expression is defined in the dictionary, grammatical derivatives of that expression have a corresponding meaning. (For instance, if
'to colour' means 'to paint red', then 'coloured' means 'painted red')
Headings are only for convenience. They are to be ignored when interpreting these terms, except insofar as they indicate the number of a clause.
A schedule to a document is part of that document.
A reference to the singular includes the plural and vice versa.
Where one thing is said to include one or more other things, it is not limited to those other things.
There is no significance in the use of gender-specific language.
A 'person' includes any entity which can sue and be sued.
A 'person' includes any legal successor to or representative of that person.
A reference to a law includes any amendment or replacement of that law.
Anything that is unenforceable must be read down, to the point of severance if necessary.
Anything we can do, we may do through an appropriately authorised representative.
5.General terms
The following clauses 6 to 36 apply in every case.
6.Registry requirements
Each registry operator has its own terms and conditions, policies and requirements covering the registration, use and renewal of domain
names and related matters like dispute resolution procedures and transfer procedures - 'registry requirements'.
ICANN may also impose terms and conditions, policies and requirements on registry operators, us and / or registrants. Where such terms and
conditions, policies and requirements are relevant to domain name applicants or registrants, they also count as 'registry requirements'.
A new registry requirement, or an amendment of an existing one, takes effect as soon as the registry operator requires it to take
effect (even if that is retrospective). That is beyond our control.
Some registry requirements are set out in these terms. Others are cross-referenced. ICANN or a registry operator may have, or introduce, new ones.
You apply for, and accept, registration for any domain name subject to all applicable registry requirements from time to time.
You are responsible for familiarising yourself with all registry requirements, whether or not they are included or referenced in these terms.
You release us from any claim arising out of registry requirements or anything that we do under them.
Registry requirements are for the benefit of registry operators and us, not for the benefit of you or other registrants. You can never oblige
us to enforce registry requirements against other people.
7.Domain names are licensed, not owned
You acknowledge that the right to use a domain name is by way of licence. A registrant is a licensee of a domain name, not its owner.
Expressions such as 'applying for a domain name', 'registering a domain name' and 'transferring a domain name' (and so on) are to be
read merely as contractions of 'applying for a domain name licence', 'registering a domain name licence' and 'transferring a domain name licence' (and so on).
A domain name licence is subject to its licence terms. It may not be used in breach of its licence terms. Many of those terms are registry requirements, beyond our control.
8.Applying for a domain name
To apply for a domain name, you must:
complete our application form;
agree to these terms;
submit the registration fee; and
satisfy any other requirements we notify to you.
Application does not assure you of a domain name, even if a preliminary search indicates that the domain name is available for registration.
Your application is successful if and only if:
you have paid the registration fee, and your payment has been honoured;
your application complies with the requirements and policies of the applicable registry operator;
the applicable registry operator approves your application and permits the registration; and
we have notified you in writing that your application has been finally approved -
but subject to those requirements, the period of your domain name licence is taken to commence on the date you applied for it.
You acknowledge that registry operators reserve arbitrary rights to reject registrations at any time. You must not assume that your
application will be successful, or take any step or spend any money on the assumption that it will be.
9.Period of registration
A domain name licence has a fixed period.
For some types of domain names, there is a choice of periods. Our application form will indicate the period/s that you may apply for.
You may choose only one. If you become the registrant of the domain name, the licence period will be the one you applied for.
10.Renewal of registration
You may renew your registration of a domain name in accordance with these terms and registry requirements.
You are responsible for renewing your registration, and if you fail to do so before the end of the licence term, the domain name may be
available for registration by third parties.
You release us from any claim arising out of your failure to renew registration.
We may elect to send you a renewal notice as a courtesy, but:
we are never obliged to do so; and
you have no claim against us if we do not do so, or if our notice does not reach you.
you do not have to renew your registration, or pay any fee indicated by the reminder notice, unless you choose to do so.
If we send you a renewal notice, you may:
choose to renew your registration - and that means you must pay the fee indicated; or
let the registration lapse - and that means you need not pay the fee.
11.Applying for renewal
To renew a domain name, you must:
complete our renewal procedure;
agree to these terms (as in force at the time of renewal);
submit the renewal fee; and
satisfy any other requirements we notify to you.
Your renewal is successful if and only if:
you have paid the renewal fee, and your payment has been honoured;
your renewal complies with the requirements and policies of the applicable registry operator;
the applicable registry operator approves your renewal; and
we have notified you in writing that your application has been finally approved -
but subject to those requirements, the period of your renewed domain name licence is taken to commence on the date your previous licence expired.
If we notify you that receipt of a renewal and / or a renewal fee is required to be lodged or paid some time before the domain name has
actually expired, you may lose any right to renew if you do not lodge and pay by that time.
If you wish to renew a domain name that is licensed by a non-Australian registry operator, you must always lodge your
application and renewal fee in time to meet any cut off date imposed by the registry operator.
12.Period of renewed registration
Our web site will indicate the renewal period/s that you may apply for. You may choose only one.
If your renewal is successful, the renewed licence period will be the one you applied for.
Subject to registry requirements, there is no limit to the number of times you may renew a registration.
13.Transfers
There are several types of 'transfer' that may affect a domain name registration:
a 'member to member transfer' - where we are registrar of record both before and after transfer;
a 'transfer in' - where (a) there is a change of registrant and (b) we become the registrar of record as a result of the transfer;
a 'transfer out' - where (a) there is a change of registrant and (b) we cease to be the registrar of record as a result of the transfer;
a 'registrar transfer in' - where (a) there is no change of registrant and (b) we become the registrar of record as a result of the transfer;
a 'registrar transfer out' - where (a) there is no change of registrant and (b) we cease to be the registrar of record as a result of the transfer.
Various terms and registry requirements apply to different transfers.
14.Member to member transfer
A member to member transfer must comply with this clause.
Transferor and transferee must both be current members.
The transferor must initiate the transfer process.
The parties must use our online transfer system and comply with our such procedure as we specify.
The transfer is subject to and must comply with such procedure as we specify.
The transferor must pay any outstanding fees they owe us.
The transferor relinquishes their registration of the domain name after the transfer.
The transferor releases us from any claims arising under or in relation to this agreement and / or their domain name registration and / or
its transfer as soon as the transfer is effected.
The transferee must enter into a registration agreement with us, with a term of at least a year.
The transferee must provide us with all the information required by the online transfer system, and our procedure and policy and warrants
that it is complete and accurate.
15.Transfers - general
You may transfer a domain name registration subject to:
registry requirements, and
this clause.
If we consider that a transfer is taking place, or has taken place:
because of an administrative error or oversight by us or anyone else; or
because of illegal, unfair or unethical conduct by you or anyone else -
we may suspend or reverse the transfer - a 'slip correction'.
We are not liable to you for any consequence of a slip correction or the circumstances that gave rise to it, but if the circumstances
were not your fault you can apply for a refund of any fees you paid to us for the transfer.
16.Fees
We publish current charges for our services on our web site. We can change them at will, but changes are not retrospective.
Service charges are subject to change without notice.
You must pay our charges for all services you request and / or use.
Charges that you pay are non-refundable.
Domain name registration fees are payable when you apply to register. If your payment is not honoured, your application is void.
Domain name renewal fees are payable before the current registration period ends. If you do not pay by then:
we may place the domain name on hold for 30 days; and
if you have not paid within those 30 days, we may cancel your registration.
17.Credit card chargebacks
You must not seek to reverse a credit card transaction in our favour ('chargeback').
If you do initiate a chargeback, we may:
hold you to the transaction, resist the chargeback and charge you our reasonable costs of doing so; or
cancel your domain name registration or renewal.
If you have initiated a chargeback, we may decline to provide you with further services until you have paid our reasonable costs and expenses arising from it.
18.Cancellation of registration
If your domain name registration is cancelled under these terms or a registry requirement:
a third party may register it instead of you; and
you release us from any claim arising from the cancellation.
19.Taxes
The charges payable under these terms are exclusive of all government charges, taxes, duties and levies and you must pay any and all such
charge, taxes, duties and levies arising out of or in connection with these terms. In particular, you must pay to us any amount (VAT or GST
or its equivalent) which we are obliged to pay as a result of any supply made or deemed to be made or other matter or thing under or in
connection with these terms.
20.Your promises to us
You promise us that if you:
apply to register a domain name;
use a domain name;
renew a domain name;
transfer a domain name to another person; or
take a transfer of a domain name from another person -
through our service, then:
you have all the legal rights that you need in order to do so;
you are not infringing the rights of any third party in doing so;
all information that you provide to us is complete and accurate; and
you do not have an illegal purpose and are not engaging in illegal conduct.
21.Permitting a third party to use your domain name
You are responsible for everything done with or by means of your domain name.
If you permit anyone else to use your domain name in any way, their acts and omissions with respect to it count as your acts and omissions.

warrant that all information that you provide to us is complete, accurate and up to date; and
must promptly notify us if any of it changes.
It is a registry requirement that information submitted to a registry operator is true, accurate and that you keep it up to date.
We may use any information that we hold about you as part of the normal registries and databases we produce for the purpose of
running our service or our business.
We may disclose any information that we hold about you to ICANN and / or a registry operator if they request it.

Except where the laws of another jurisdiction are mandatorily applicable, these terms are to be construed in accordance with the
law of the State of Victoria, Australia. The parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that State and also of
the courts having jurisdiction at the place of your address as shown for the registration of the domain name in our Whois database at the
time relevant proceedings are commenced.

undertakings between the parties.

28.Further assurance
You must promptly at our request execute and deliver such further documents and do such further acts as are reasonably necessary to

arising under these terms or your use of our services.
Each indemnity and release you give us or anyone else under these terms survives the termination or expiration of any registration agreement.
30.Limitation of liability
Some laws - particularly the Trade Practices Act 1974 -
may give you rights and remedies that cannot be changed or excluded by these terms. These terms are subject to those laws, and must
be read and understood subject to them.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any condition, warranty, right or remedy implied or imposed by any law
if it cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified.
If we supply you with goods or services that are of a kind ordinarily acquired for domestic, personal or household use, you
have certain rights under the Trade Practices Act 1974 that these terms cannot change or exclude. But in any case where we are
allowed to limit it, our liability for such breaches is limited, at our choice to:
in the case of goods:
replacing the goods or supplying equivalent goods;
repairing the goods;
paying for the cost of replacing the goods or buying equivalent goods; or
paying for the cost of repairing the goods, and

all express or implied representations, conditions, warranties and remedies relating to our services are excluded;
we are not liable for any indirect, special, economic or consequential loss or damage or loss of revenue, profits, goodwill, bargain or
opportunities or loss of anticipated savings that you incur or suffer in any way, whether:
we caused it by our negligence; or
we knew or should have known of the possibility of such loss or damage; and
our maximum aggregate liability, whether for breach of these terms or in
negligence or in any other tort or for any other common law or statutory cause of action or otherwise is the amount you paid to
us for our services during the 30 day period immediately before the time your cause of action arose (but this does not apply in
the case of a claim that we have caused injury to or the death of any person).
31.Termination
If you are in breach of these terms or any registry requirement we may give you a notice identifying the breach and requiring that you remedy it
within five days.
If you do not comply with our breach notice, we may cancel the registration of any domain name that the breach relates to.
If we give a breach notice, we may suspend services to you, including procuring suspension of any domain name that the notice relates to, until the
breach is remedied or the registration is cancelled.
You release us from any claim arising from anything we do under this clause.
32.Right to deny, cancel, suspend or transfer domain name or other services
In addition to any other options, we may, in our discretion, without notice,
refuse to register, or cancel, suspend or transfer any domain name or other service if we believe it is necessary to protect the
integrity or stability of the registry, to comply with any applicable laws, lawful requests from a law enforcement agency, any
applicable dispute resolution process, or to protect the name pending resolution of a dispute or to avoid any liability, civil or
criminal, on our part.
We may maintain a suspension under this clause until we are satisfied that the allegation is not valid.
If a suspension continues for 30 days, we may terminate the registration at our discretion.
You release us from any claim arising from anything we do under this clause.
33.Authority from registrant
We may act on instructions apparently from a person who appears to us to be the registrant or a person acting under the authority of the
registrant, without being under any obligation to do so if we have actual notice that there is a dispute as to the authority of that
person. In addition to any other options, we may, without being obliged to do so, suspend or place on registrar lock and/or hold a
domain name in respect of which there is a dispute as to the authority of any person in relation to that name.
You release us from any claim arising from anything we do under this clause.

by emailing the notice (or a hyperlink to a web page that contains the notice) to the most recent email address you supply to us;
by fax to the most recent fax number you supply to us;
by ordinary mail or hand delivery to the most recent postal address you supply to us, or (if you are a company) to your registered office;

Amended terms take effect when they are published, unless they specify a later time or date.
