Welcome to Gold Dog Productions - Domain Name Registration Terms and Conditions

Domain Name Services. This document (the "DNS Terms") describes the rights and obligations of Gold Dog Productions and the Customer in connection with Gold Dog Productions' registration or renewal of domain names for the Customer.
Domain Name Registration. Upon Customer's request and subject to these DNS Terms, Gold Dog Productions will register an Internet domain name, or renew the Customer's registration of an existing domain name, on behalf of Customer with a registrar selected by Gold Dog Productions and identified below (the "Registrar").
Customer Responsibilities. Gold Dog Productions' registration or renewal of any domain name is subject to (i) Gold Dog Productions receiving from Customer all information needed from Customer in order to complete such registration, (ii) such domain name not being in violation of any applicable law, rule or regulation or the policies of the applicable Registrar or registry, and (iii) Customer's compliance with these DNS Terms. Registration of a domain name is subject to availability of such domain name for registration, and Gold Dog Productions will not be responsible if a domain name is not available for any reason. Gold Dog Productions will also not be responsible for any infringement of third-party rights caused by its registration of a domain name for Customer. Customer waives any claims it may have against Gold Dog Productions for, and hereby releases Gold Dog Productions of and from, any loss, damage, liability or expense arising out of, or relating to, the registration of such domain name in any online or offline network directories, membership lists or registration lists, or the release of the domain name from such directories or lists following the termination of services by Gold Dog Productions for any reason.
ICANN and Other Authority. Customer acknowledges that its rights to any domain name registered or renewed by Gold Dog Productions are not being granted by Gold Dog Productions but are subject to the rules and regulations of ICANN, the Registrar, the registry and applicable law. Customer's inability to use a domain name shall not entitle Customer to a refund by Gold Dog Productions of any fees paid with respect to the registration of such unusable domain name. The domain name for the Customer Web site shall be the property of Customer.
Domain Name Renewals. If Customer requests Gold Dog Productions to renew for multiple years a prior registration of Customer for a domain name, Customer represents and warranties that all information it provides to Gold Dog Productions in connection with such request will be true and correct. Gold Dog Productions' sole responsibility in connection with any such request will be to process the renewal using the renewal mechanism provided by the Registrar. Gold Dog Productions will have no responsibility or liability for any loss, interruption in service, service error or loss of data caused by the Registrar.
Registrar Terms and Conditions. Beginning at approximately 8:01 am Eastern U.S. time on Wednesday, May 1, 2002, unless the applicable Order specifies another Registrar, all registrations and renewals will be subject to the terms and conditions of Melbourne IT, available for review at http://www.melbourneit.com.au/policies/ (the "Registrar Terms") and by submitting any Order to Gold Dog Productions for domain name services under these DNS Terms, the Customer agrees to the Registrar Terms and understands and agrees to the Registrar's privacy policy available at http://www.melbourneit.com.au/privacy/. Prior to such time, all registrations and renewals are subject to the terms and conditions of Network Solutions, available for review at http://www.netsol.com/en_US/legal/static-service-agreement.jhtml. If the Order specifies a Registrar other than Melbourne IT, the Customer agrees to the terms and conditions of such registrar as the same may be posted on the web site of such Registrar from time to time.
Changing Registrars. If the Customer submits an Order to Gold Dog Productions for domain name services that requires that the domain name change registrars, the Customer acknowledges that it is solely responsible for complying with the acknowledgement policies of the losing registrar. Such acknowledgement policies may require the Customer to respond to an e-mail sent to the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact of the domain name, as reflected in the WHOIS database of the losing registrar. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that neither Gold Dog Productions nor the gaining Registrar will bear any liability or responsibility for any delay, inconvenience or expiration of domain name registration that occurs as a consequence of the Customer's failure to respond timely to any losing registrar query or request for confirmation.
Changing Registrar Resellers. If the Customer submits an Order to Gold Dog Productions to renew a domain name that was previously registered through a reseller of the Registrar, the Customer acknowledges that it is solely responsible for complying with the acknowledgement policies of the losing reseller and the Registrar. Such acknowledgement policies may require the Customer to respond to an e-mail sent to the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact of the domain name, as reflected in the WHOIS database of the losing registrar, and may also require the Customer to settle any open accounts it has with the losing reseller. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that Gold Dog Productions will bear no liability or responsibility for any delay, inconvenience or expiration of domain name registration that occurs as a consequence of the Customer's failure to satisfy the acknowledgment policies of the losing reseller or the Registrar.
Renewal and Expiration. The Customer agrees that Gold Dog Productions bears no responsibility or obligation to notify Customer of any impending domain name expiration dates and that the Customer is wholly responsible for such deadlines. Although Gold Dog Productions may accept Orders for domain name renewals within the forty-five-day (45) day period prior to the impending expiration date of a domain name, Gold Dog Productions will have no responsibility for any expiration of a domain name that occurs with respect to any Order submitted to Gold Dog Productions within such period.
Contact Information. The Customer agrees to keep its WHOIS information accurate and up-to-date. The Customer must cause the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact to be the same as the Customer's e-mail address maintained in Gold Dog Productions' billing records. If the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact is not the same as the Customer's e-mail address maintained in Gold Dog Productions' billing records, Gold Dog Productions may (but will have no duty to) change the e-mail address for the Administrative Contact in the WHOIS records of the registrar.
Other Terms and Conditions. The provisions of Sections 9, 10, 11, 14 and 15 of the Terms of Service are incorporated herein by this reference. All fees are fully earned when due and non-refundable when paid.
