This Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Policy") is incorporated by reference into your Registration Agreement, and sets forth the terms and conditions in connection with a dispute between you and any party other than DropCatch1056 (the registrar) over the registration and use of an Internet domain name registered by you.
By applying to register a domain name, or by asking DropCatch1056 to maintain or renew a domain name registration, you hereby represent and warrant to DropCatch1056 that (a) the statements that you made in your Registration Agreement are complete and accurate; (b) that to the best of your knowledge, the registration of the domain name will not infringe upon or otherwise violate the rights of any third party; (c) you are not registering the domain name for an unlawful or malicious purpose; and (d) you will not knowingly use the domain name in violation of any applicable laws or regulations. DropCatch1056 does not check to verify that your domain registration is legal. It is your responsibility to determine, whether your domain name registration infringes or violates someone else's rights.
DropCatch1056 may also cancel, transfer or otherwise make changes to a domain name registration in accordance with the terms of your Registration Agreement, other legal requirements, or for any reason DropCatch1056 deems necessary.
g.DropCatch1056 Involvement in Administrative Proceedings - DropCatch1056 does not and will not participate in the administration or conduct of any proceeding before an Administrative Panel. In addition, DropCatch1056 will not be liable as a result of any decisions rendered by the Administrative Panel.
i.Notification and Publication - The Provider shall notify DropCatch1056 of any decision made by one of its Administrative Panels with respect to a domain name you have registered with the Registrar. All decisions under this Policy will be published over the Internet, except when an Administrative Panel determines in its sole discretion not to have its decision published.
j.Availability of Court Proceedings - The mandatory administrative proceeding requirements set forth in Paragraph 4 shall not prevent either you or the complainant from submitting the dispute to a court of competent jurisdiction for independent resolution before such mandatory administrative proceeding is commenced or after such proceeding is concluded. If an Administrative Panel decides that your domain name registration should be cancelled or transferred, DropCatch1056 will wait ten (10) business days after being informed by the applicable Provider of the Administrative Panel's decision before implementing that decision. DropCatch1056 will then implement the decision unless it has received from you during such ten (10) business day period a copy of a complaint, file-stamped by the clerk of the court, against the complainant regarding your right to use your domain name. If DropCatch1056 receives such a complaint, it will not implement the Administrative Panel's decision, and it will take no further action, until (i) DropCatch1056 is informed of a resolution between the parties; (ii) DropCatch1056 is informed that your lawsuit has been dismissed or withdrawn; or (iii) DropCatch1056 receives a copy of an order from such court dismissing your lawsuit or ordering that you do not have the right to continue to use your domain name.
All other disputes between you and any third-party other than DropCatch1056 regarding your domain name registration that are not brought under the UDRP Policy shall be resolved between you and such third-party through any court, arbitration or other proceeding that may be available and applicable.
DropCatch1056 will not participate in any way in any dispute between you and any third-party regarding the registration and use of your domain name(s). You shall not name DropCatch1056 as a party or otherwise include DropCatch1056 in any such proceeding. In the event that DropCatch1056 is named as a party in any such proceeding, DropCatch1056 reserves the right to raise any and all defenses deemed appropriate, and to take any other action necessary to defend the company.
DropCatch1056 will not cancel, transfer, activate, deactivate, or otherwise change the status of any domain name registration under the Dispute Policy except as provided above.
a.Transfers of a Domain Name to a New Holder - You may not transfer your domain name registration to another holder (i) during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) calendar days after such proceeding is concluded; or (ii) during a pending court proceeding or arbitration commenced regarding your domain name unless the party to whom the domain name registration is being transferred agrees, in writing, to be bound by the decision of the court or arbitrator. DropCatch1056 reserves the right to cancel any transfer of a domain name registration to another holder that is made in violation of this provision.
b.Changing Registrars - You may not transfer your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to the UDRP Policy or for a period of fifteen (15) calendar days after such proceeding is concluded. You may transfer administration of your domain name registration to another registrar during a pending court action or arbitration, provided that (i) the domain name you have registered with DropCatch1056 shall continue to be subject to the proceedings commenced against you in accordance with the terms of this Policy and if permitted by the relevant authority; and (ii) the new registrar has a domain name dispute policy under which it will recognize and implement any decision rendered in any such proceeding. In the event you transfer a domain name registration to DropCatch1056 during the pendency of a court action or arbitration, such dispute shall remain subject to the domain name dispute policy of the registrar from which the domain name registration was transferred.
DropCatch1056 reserves the right to modify this Policy at any time. All revisions to this Policy will be posted at http://www.namebright.com/disputepolicy.aspx when it becomes effective. Unless this Policy has already been invoked, in which event the version of the Policy in effect at the time it was invoked will apply to you until the dispute is over, all such changes will be binding upon you with respect to any domain name registration dispute, whether the dispute arose before, on or after the effective date of the change.
Should you object to a change in this Policy, your sole remedy is to cancel your domain name registration or transfer your domain name registration to another registrar, provided that in the event of a transfer, you will not be entitled to a refund of any fees you paid to DropCatch1056. The revised Policy will apply to you until you cancel or transfer your domain name registration.
