3.1 DOMAIN RENEWAL TERMS
All renewals are subject to the terms of this Agreement (as amended from time to time), and you acknowledge and agree that all renewed domain names will be subject to the terms of this Agreement (as amended). Domain renewal fees are non-refundable. If, for any reason, ATAK DOMAIN is unable to obtain payment from your stored Payment Method and you fail to respond to our notices, your domain name registration will expire.
You must renew certain ccTLD extensions (such as .am, .at, .be, .br, .ca, .cn, .com.cn, .net.cn, .org.cn, .de, .eu, .fm, .fr, .gs, .it, .jp, .ms, .nu, .nz, .co.nz, .net.nz, .org.nz, .tc, .tk, .tw, .com.tw, .org.tw, .idv.tw, .uk and .vg) at least 15 days before their expiration date.
You acknowledge that ATAK DOMAIN shall not be responsible for cancelled domain names that you fail to renew within the time periods specified in this Agreement. If you fail to renew your domain name in a timely manner, additional fees may apply. If you have registered privacy services, protected registration or any other similar service along with your domain name registration, such services will also be automatically renewed when your domain registration is renewed, unless you cancel them in advance, and you will be charged the applicable additional renewal fees.
If you do not renew your domain name within the time periods specified in this Agreement, you acknowledge that ATAK DOMAIN, at its sole discretion, may choose to renew an expired domain name on your behalf. If ATAK DOMAIN decides to renew an expired domain name on your behalf, a Renewal Grace Period will apply, during which you may retain the domain name by paying ATAK DOMAIN its renewal fees. The Renewal Grace Period is currently twelve (12) days, but is subject to change in accordance with this Agreement.
For certain ccTLDs (.am, .at, .be, .cn, .com.cn, .net.cn, .org.cn, .de, .eu, .fm, .fr, .gs, .it, .jp, .ms, .nu, .nz, .co.nz, .net.nz, .org.nz, .tc, .tk, .tw, .com.tw, .org.tw, .idv.tw, .uk and .vg), a Renewal Grace Period is not provided after the expiration date of the domain name. If you do not pay ATAK DOMAIN the renewal fees during the Renewal Grace Period, your domain name will be suspended and scheduled for deletion. Thereafter, provided the domain name is not subject to an expired domain auction and you pay ATAK DOMAIN’s redemption fee, you may have up to 30 days to recover your domain name.
The redemption fee will be displayed at the time of payment and is subject to change under the terms of this Agreement. If you do not redeem your domain name before the end of the 30-day redemption period, ATAK DOMAIN may, at its sole discretion, delete the domain name or transfer it to another domain holder on your behalf. During the redemption period, your domain name may be parked.
In the event your domain name is deleted, the Registry may provide a 30-day Redemption Grace Period during which you may continue to use your domain name by paying ATAK DOMAIN the applicable redemption fee. The redemption fee will be displayed at the time of payment and is subject to change under the terms of this Agreement. If you do not redeem your domain name by the end of the Registry’s Redemption Grace Period, your domain name will be released by the Registry and made available for registration by any party on a first-come, first-served basis.
The length of the Renewal Grace Periods and Redemption Grace Periods may vary for different ccTLDs. Please refer to the specific terms for the relevant TLD. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this paragraph and the ccTLD-specific terms, the ccTLD-specific terms shall prevail.

3.2 FREE PRODUCT TERMS
If you receive free products together with the registration of a domain name, you acknowledge and agree that such products may be used only in connection with a valid purchase and may be terminated if the domain name is deleted or cancelled. For free domain names, you acknowledge and agree that you will not change the account associated with that free domain for a period of five (5) days after registration. If a free domain name is offered together with the registration of another domain name and the paid domain registration fails for any reason, we may, at our sole discretion, either delete the registration of the free domain name or refund the difference between the amount paid and the value of the free domain name. Failed registrations in connection with promotional offers may, at our discretion, result either in the deletion of the free or discounted product or in a reconciliation between the price of the registered domain and the value of the discounted product.
3.3 TERM OF AGREEMENT AND TRANSFERS
The terms and conditions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect for as long as you hold any domain name registered through ATAK DOMAIN.
You agree not to transfer any domain name registered with ATAK DOMAIN to another domain name registrar during the first sixty (60) days following the initial registration date. You acknowledge that you cannot transfer any domain name during the ten (10) days following an Account Change.
You further acknowledge and agree that you will not use the ability to cancel a domain name within three (3) days of registration with a full refund of the registration fee as a means of conducting “domain tasting” or similar activities by testing the marketing or operational advantages of a domain name. If ATAK DOMAIN, in its sole discretion, determines that you are engaged in “domain tasting”, ATAK DOMAIN reserves the right to (a) charge you a small fee (which will be deducted from any refund) or (b) reject your cancellation/refund request entirely. If ATAK DOMAIN cancels your domain name during the three (3) day period without payment due to fraud or other circumstances beyond your control, ATAK DOMAIN will not charge you any fee. The three (3) day initial use period does not apply to Premium Domain Names for which the registration fee is non-refundable.

Likewise, failure to respond within five (5) business days to any inquiry made by ATAK DOMAIN for the purpose of verifying the accuracy of the information you have provided shall also constitute a material breach of this Agreement and may be a basis for the suspension and/or cancellation of your domain name registration.

You acknowledge that, for each domain name you register, the following information will be made publicly available in the WHOIS Directory to the extent required by ICANN or registry policies:
You acknowledge and agree that, to the extent permitted by ICANN, ATAK DOMAIN may use the publicly available information you provide during the registration process. If you engage in the resale of domain names to individuals from whom you collect personal data, you agree to provide such individuals with information regarding the possible uses of their personal data in accordance with ICANN policy. You also agree to obtain the consent of such individuals to such uses of their data and to retain evidence of such consent.

In addition to the other events set forth in this Agreement, you also acknowledge and agree that:
You acknowledge and agree that ATAK DOMAIN and the Domain Name Registrar, in their sole and absolute discretion, reserve the right to reject, cancel or transfer any registration or transaction, or to place any domain name on hold, lock, suspend or similar status as they deem necessary: (i) to comply with specifications adopted by any industry group generally recognized as an authoritative body with respect to the Internet; (ii) to correct mistakes made in connection with a domain name registration or to maintain the accuracy and integrity of the domain name registry; (iii) in the event of non-payment of fees owed to the Domain Name Registrar; (iv) to protect the integrity and stability of the Domain Name Registrar; (v) to comply with any applicable court orders, laws, government rules or requirements, legal requests or dispute resolution processes; (vi) to comply with the terms, conditions, rules and regulations of ICANN, including, without limitation, the Registration Agreement; (vii) to avoid any civil or criminal liability on the part of the Registry Operator and its affiliates, subsidiaries, officers, directors and employees; (viii) as otherwise provided in this Agreement; (ix) upon the occurrence of any unauthorized activities described in Section 8 below; or (x) during the resolution of a dispute.

If your Services are cancelled or terminated due to breach, you shall not be entitled to any refund.
ATAK DOMAIN’s failure to act or notify you regarding any activity that constitutes a breach shall not be deemed a waiver of the breach and shall not be construed as an excuse for such breach.
3.7 LIMITATION OF SERVICES, RIGHT TO REFUSE SERVICE
If your domain name is hosted on ATAK DOMAIN DNS servers, or if you use our systems to forward a domain name, URL or other content to a system or site hosted elsewhere, or if your domain name is registered with ATAK DOMAIN, it is your responsibility to ensure that there is no excessive load on ATAK DOMAIN servers in connection with your domain. You may not use ATAK DOMAIN servers and your domain name as a source, intermediary, reply-to address or destination address for email attacks or any other attacks. Server hacking and other security breaches are prohibited. If ATAK DOMAIN determines that your site is engaged in activities that threaten network stability, ATAK DOMAIN reserves the right to disable your domain name from its DNS servers.
You acknowledge that ATAK DOMAIN, in its sole discretion and without any liability to you, may refuse to accept the registration of any domain name. ATAK DOMAIN may also, in its sole discretion and without any liability to you, delete any domain name registration within the first thirty (30) days following its initial registration.
If ATAK DOMAIN refuses a registration or deletes an existing registration within the first thirty (30) days after registration, you will receive a refund of all fees paid to ATAK DOMAIN in connection with the cancelled or rejected registration.

auDA. “auDA” means .au Domain Administration Limited ACN 079 009 340, the administrator of .au domain names. The Domain Name Registrar acts as an agent of auDA solely to the extent necessary to enable auDA to benefit from the rights and protections conferred upon it under this Agreement. auDA is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement.

5.2 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR .CA DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS
You acknowledge and agree that your selected domain name will not be registered upon your initial application to CIRA unless and until you become a party to and agree to be bound by CIRA’s Registrant Agreement.
CIRA-Certified Domain Name Registrar. If the Domain Name Registrar ceases to be a CIRA Certified Registrar, has its certification suspended or terminated, or if the Registrar Agreement between CIRA and the Domain Name Registrar is terminated or expires, the Domain Name Registrar shall promptly notify you. CIRA may post a notice of such suspension, termination or expiration on its website and, if it deems appropriate, may notify the affected domain name registrants. If the Domain Name Registrar ceases to be a CIRA Certified Registrar, has its certification suspended or terminated, or if the Registrar Agreement between CIRA and the Domain Name Registrar is terminated or expires, it is your responsibility to transfer your domain names to a new CIRA Certified Registrar within thirty (30) days from the date on which notice is given to you by either the Domain Name Registrar or CIRA in accordance with CIRA’s then-current Registrant PRP, except where the term of any of your domain name registrations is scheduled to expire within thirty (30) days of such notice; in that case, you have thirty (30) days from the anniversary date of the registration to select a new CIRA Certified Registrar and renew such registration in accordance with the Registrant PRP.
You acknowledge and agree that if there are insufficient funds in the CIRA Deposit Account used by the Domain Name Registrar to pay fees, CIRA may, in its sole discretion, stop accepting domain name applications from that Domain Name Registrar, stop processing registrations, transfers, renewals, changes and deletions of domain names requested by that Domain Name Registrar and stop processing any other chargeable transactions requested by that Domain Name Registrar. CIRA may also terminate the Registrar Agreement between CIRA and the Domain Name Registrar.
.CA ASCII and IDN Domain Variants. ASCII and IDN variants of .CA domains are bundled and reserved for a single domain holder. A domain holder is not required to register all variants in a bundle; however, all registered variants must be managed through a single Domain Name Registrar. A separate registration fee applies to each registered variant. In addition, when registering multiple .CA domains (ASCII and IDN) within a single bundle, your domain holder information must be identical. If variants are registered with different Domain Name Registrars or the domain holder information does not match, this may result in an “unavailable” search result, delays or registration failures. If the information does not match, a verification process is required, which may take up to seven business days and delay the availability of the domain name.
5.3 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR .CN DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS
The .CN extension is a restricted TLD, which means that applications are subject to both domain control and real-name verification as required by the Government of the People’s Republic of China. Accordingly, .CN registrations are subject to the following additional terms:
Verification, Registration and Activation. If the Government of China does not permit the registration of a domain name, or if we, the Registry Operator and/or any third-party provider engaged by us for such services (in their or our sole discretion) determine that the registration is not permitted, the registration application will not be successful. In such a case, the domain name will be deleted and you may be eligible for a refund as described below.
If the registration is permitted, the registration process may proceed; however, if you do not submit the valid documents requested by us and the Registry Operator (as explained during the registration process), the .CN domain name may not be activated (i.e. may not be usable on the Internet). The following are the forms of documents accepted for verification:
Documents submitted to us are used solely for the purpose of real-name verification and are shared with the Domain Name Registrar only for that purpose and are subject to our Privacy Policy available at https://www.atakdomain.com/gizlilik-politikasi. By registering a .CN domain name, you expressly acknowledge and agree that your data may be stored on servers located in the United States or on servers located outside the People’s Republic of China.
Refunds. Refunds for .CN registrations are permitted only (i) if the Government of China does not permit the registration of the domain name; or (ii) if, for any reason, you notify us of your intention to cancel the registration within the first five (5) days after registration (that is, after the Government of China has approved the registration). For the avoidance of doubt, no refund shall be permitted after five (5) days from the registration date under any circumstances, including, without limitation, if real-name verification is not successfully completed or if, after registration, the Government of China decides not to approve the domain name registration (and directs us to delete the domain name).
5.4 SPECIAL PROVISIONS FOR .JP DOMAIN REGISTRATIONS
Registration Restrictions. You represent and warrant that you have a residential or business address in Japan. You acknowledge that certain domain names are reserved and may be registered only by specific parties. These include: (i) TLDs other than ccTLDs designated by ICANN; (ii) geographic .JP domain names defined as labels for metropolitan, prefectural and municipal authorities; (iii) names of first- and second-level educational institutions; (iv) names of organizations related to Internet governance; (v) domain names necessary for .JP domain operations; and (vi) character strings that may be confused with Japanese domain names represented in ASCII code.
