THIS AGREEMENT HAS A PROVISION FOR ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES BETWEEN THE PARTIES.
This Registration Agreement ("Agreement") sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of domain name registration and related services ("Services"). In this Agreement "you" and "your" refer to you and the registrant listed in the WHOIS contact information for the domain name. "We", "us" and "our" refer to the registrars listed at the bottom of this document, any one of which will be the registrar for your domain name and all of which share common ownership, common terms and conditions, and a shared Services infrastructure. To determine which registrar your domain name is registered with, perform a WHOIS lookup at http://www.uwhois.com. You obtain the Services through your primary service provider, with whom we have a wholesale relationship (your "Primary Service Provider"). Your relationship with your Primary Service Provider may be governed by additional terms, as you and your Primary Service Provider may agree. "We," "us" and "our" does not include your Primary Service Provider, except when specifically mentioned or unless your Primary Service Provider is one of us (i.e., if your Primary Service Provider is also one of the registrars listed at the bottom of this document).

eNom401, Inc. d/b/a BulkRegister ("BulkRegister") is an accredited registrar with ICANN for various generic top-level domain names, including .com, .net, .org, .biz, .info, .name and .pro ("gTLDs"). See Schedules B through E for additional terms and conditions with respect to various gTLDs.
In addition to registering and renewing gTLDs, BulkRegister also registers and renews various country code top level domains ("ccTLDs"). The registry administrator or operator for each ccTLD varies by individual country code. By agreeing to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, you are also agreeing to be bound by the rules and regulations set forth by these registry administrators or operators for their respective registries only. (Click to see Schedule F and Annex A thereto for additional terms and conditions with respect to ccTLDs.)
No Guarantee of Registration or Renewal. As a domain name registrar, BulkRegister is, upon accepting your application to register or renew a domain name, your sponsor for that application. No domain name registrations shall be deemed effective unless and until BR delivers the domain name registration or renewal application you provide BR to the appropriate registry administrator, as applicable, and that registry administrator accepts your application and activates your domain name registration or renewal. You acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister does not guarantee that you will be able to register or renew a desired domain name, even if BR's systems indicate that domain name is available. You also understand that BulkRegister cannot know with certainty whether or not the domain name which you are seeking to register is simultaneously being sought by a third party, or whether there are any inaccuracies or errors in the domain name registration or renewal process or related databases, including the various WHOIS or other registry databases. You also acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister is not responsible for any inaccuracies or errors in the domain name registration or renewal process. You are solely responsible for making sure that your registration or renewal has been properly processed. You further acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister, or the applicable registry administrator or operator, may elect to accept or reject your application for registration or renewal for any reason in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, rejection due to a request for registration or renewal of a prohibited domain name. You also acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister is not liable or responsible in any way for any errors, omissions or any other actions by any third party, including any registry administrator, arising out of or related to your application for and registration of, renewal of, or failure to register or renew, a particular domain name. You also agree that, by registration of your chosen domain name, such registration does not confer immunity from objection to either the registration or use of your domain name.
Your Representations. By applying to register a domain name, or by asking BR to maintain or renew a domain name registration, you hereby represent and warrant to BR that (a) the statements that you made in connection with such registration, maintenance or renewal are complete and accurate; (b) the registration of the domain name will not conflict with, infringe upon or otherwise violate the rights of any third party; (c) you are not registering the domain name in bad faith or for an unlawful purpose, including, without limitation, tortious interference with contractual relationships, unfair competition, injuring the reputation of another, or for the purpose of confusing or misleading visitors to a website; and (d) you will not use the domain name in violation of any applicable laws or regulations or BulkRegister's rules or policies. You agree and acknowledge that it is your responsibility to determine whether your domain name registration or use infringes or violates someone else's rights.
Domain Name Registrant. BulkRegister considers the person or entity controlling the Member handle and password for a particular domain name registration (referred to as the authorization code, or "auth" or "AUTH INFO" code by various registry operators) to be the registrant of that domain name, unless the Member supplies specific information regarding the registrant and the registrant accepts this Agreement. In any event, the Member is the agent of any other person using the domain name, with full authority to act on such person's behalf with respect to the domain name registration or any other Services obtained from BulkRegister, including, but not limited to, the authority to terminate, transfer (where permitted by this Agreement), or modify such Services, or obtain additional Services.
Automatic Renewal of Domain Name Registrations. All domain names registered with or transferred to BulkRegister may be set to automatically renew for your convenience and to help to prevent unwanted deletion of a registration. The automatic renewal Service will attempt to renew your specified domain names on the renewal date for a one year term (or such longer term as may be required by a particular registry administrator) by charging the most recent credit card on file with BR or your account the then-current retail price for such renewal seven (7) days before the expiration date. The automatic renewal Service is provided as a convenience for you but in no way guarantees a desired renewal. It is your obligation to affirmatively renew any desired domain name. In addition, BulkRegister has no obligation to attempt to renew your domain name if your most recent credit card on file with BR for your account is not accepted according to BulkRegister's payment processing systems. BULKREGISTER SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE RENEWAL OR ANY ATTEMPT TO RENEW A DOMAIN NAME AS DESCRIBED HEREIN, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY FAILURE OR ERRORS IN RENEWING OR ATTEMPTING TO RENEW THE SERVICES. The foregoing limitation of liability is in addition to any other limitations of liability set forth in this Agreement. You also acknowledge and agree that if you want BulkRegister's automatic renewal Service to apply to your registrations, you must affirmatively opt in to this automatic renewal Service (either with respect to a particular domain name registration or all of your domain name registrations) by contacting customer service or by visiting the BulkRegister Website. Your failure to affirmatively opt in to the automatic renewal Service may jeopardize your desired renewal. For your convenience, an auto-renew email reminder will be sent to your email address set forth in your registration application at least fifteen (15) days prior to the renewal date and, upon renewal, a renewal notification will also be sent to notify you that your domain name has been reserved.
Security. BulkRegister does not guarantee the security of your domain name registration records, and you assume all risks that the security option you select is compromised as a result of fraudulent, unauthorized or illegal activity.
Fees and Payment. Initial domain name registrations, and domain name registrations that have passed the registration agreement's anniversary date, must be in a paid status to transfer, delete, modify, or otherwise to request BulkRegister to affect the domain name record or to provide domain name Services. Domain name registrations in an unpaid status are routinely deleted on a regular basis.
Transfers and Licensing of Use. You agree that you may not transfer your domain name registration to another domain name registrar during the first sixty (60) days from the effective date of your initial domain name registration with BR. You may transfer your domain name registration to a third party of your choice, subject to the procedures located on the BulkRegister Website regarding transfers. Even if you license the use of BR's domain name registration Services to a third party, you remain responsible for complying with all terms and conditions of this Agreement, and you accept liability for harm caused by such licensee's wrongful use of BR's domain name registration Services, unless you promptly disclose the identity of such license upon request by any person who provides reasonable evidence of actionable harm.
Policy Generally. If you registered a domain name through BR for yourself or another party, you agree to be bound by BR's current domain name dispute policy that is incorporated herein and made a part of this Agreement by reference. The current version of the domain name dispute policy may be found at the BulkRegister Website: http://www.bulkregister.com/dispute.html. You agree that BulkRegister, in its sole discretion, may modify its dispute policy. BulkRegister will post any such revised policy on the BulkRegister Website at least fifteen (15) calendar days before it becomes effective. You agree that, by maintaining the reservation or registration of your domain name after modifications to the dispute policy become effective, you have agreed to these modifications. You acknowledge that if you do not agree to any such modification, you may terminate this Agreement. BulkRegister will not refund any fees paid by you if you terminate your Agreement with BulkRegister. In addition, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by all terms and conditions of the UDRP, as amended from time to time, which is hereby incorporated and made a part of this Agreement by reference for all gTLD and ccTLD domain name registrations or renewals. (Click here for a current copy of the UDRP.)
Domain Name Disputes. You agree that, if your use of BR's domain name registration services is challenged by a third party, you will be subject to the provisions specified in BR's dispute policy in effect at the time of the dispute. For any dispute with, or challenge by, a third party concerning or arising from your use of a domain name registered with BR or your use of BR's domain name registration services, you agree to submit to subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction and venue of the United States District Court for the District of Western Washington, or if there is no jurisdiction in such court, then in Seattle, Washington. You agree that in the event a domain name dispute arises with any third party, you will indemnify and hold BulkRegister harmless pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below in this Agreement. If BulkRegister is notified that a complaint has been filed with a judicial or administrative body regarding your use of its domain name registration Services, you agree not to make any changes to your domain name record without BulkRegister's prior approval. BulkRegister may not allow you to make changes to such domain name record until (i) BulkRegister is directed to do so by the judicial or administrative body, or (ii) BulkRegister receives notification by you and the other party contesting your registration and use of BulkRegister's domain name registration Services that the dispute has been settled. Furthermore, you agree that if you are subject to litigation regarding your registration and use of BulkRegister's domain name registration Services, BulkRegister may deposit control of your domain name record into the registry of the judicial body by supplying a party with a registrar certificate. You understand and acknowledge that BulkRegister will comply with all court orders, domestic or international, directed against you and/or the domain name registration.
Revocation. You agree that BulkRegister may suspend, cancel or transfer your Services, including, but not limited to, domain name registration Services in order to: (i) correct mistakes made by BulkRegister, another registrar or the registry in registering your chosen domain name, or (ii) to resolve a dispute under BulkRegister's domain name dispute policy.
Under Construction Page. You acknowledge and agree that any or all domain names that are (i) registered with BulkRegister, (ii) hosted on a BulkRegister domain name server, and (iii) do not otherwise resolve to an active Website, may resolve to a parking page or under construction page ("Temporary Page") designated by BulkRegister, and that BulkRegister may place on any such Temporary Page promotions and advertisements for, and links to, BulkRegister's Website, BulkRegister's Services, third-party Websites, third-party product and service offerings, and/or Internet search engines. You agree that BulkRegister may change the content and/or appearance of, or disable, any Temporary Page at any time, in its sole discretion, and without prior notice. If for any reason, you do not want your domain name to resolve to the Temporary Page described above, you may select a Temporary Page that does not contain links to BulkRegister's Website, promotions and links to specific BulkRegister Services, third party advertisements, or Internet search engines, as provided on the BulkRegister Website.
In addition to the terms set forth in this Agreement and Schedule A of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to .biz domain names.
You agree that, by continuing to use any of the Services provided hereunder (which may include registration and use of a .biz domain name) after the posting on BulkRegister's or the .biz Registry Operator's website of any revisions to or new ICANN approved .biz Policies, you have agreed to the terms and conditions of the same. You acknowledge that if you do not agree to the .biz Policies, you may terminate this Agreement. BR will not refund any fees paid by you if you terminate your Agreement with BR.
Registry Actions or Inactions. BR's ability to provide Services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .biz Registry Operator, NeuLevel, Inc. BR cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties. For example, the .biz Registry Operator has reserved the right to deny, cancel or transfer any domain name registration under certain circumstances. You acknowledge and agree that BR shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .biz Registry Operator. You agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless NeuLevel, Inc., and its directors, officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, arising out of or relating to your domain name registration.
Multiple Phases of Services. Your application or registration (whether successful or not) for any .biz domain name hereunder does not guarantee, and BR does not promise, that you will be approved or eligible for any other Services available or that may become available through BR or any third party. For example, certain services in the .biz TLD are provided in sequential phases, and participation in one phase, does not automatically qualify you for participation in other phases, and any further participation is not automatic. The .biz Registry Operator, and not BulkRegister, determines the dates and times associated with the various service phases available in the .biz TLD. You agree to review and become familiar with the information available on the BulkRegister Website and on the .biz website concerning the various phases and descriptions of services available in connection with .biz TLD, and to regularly check for modifications and/or updates to such information, as the same may change from time to time. You agree that you are solely responsible for applying and/or registering for the service phases you desire to participate in. Additionally, you acknowledge and agree that submission of an application for domain name registration or any other Services, does not guarantee that you will ultimately be the registrant for a particular domain name, even if you participated in some other Service associated with the domain name, such as an intellectual property notification service or similar service.
Additional Acknowledgments Concerning Customer Information. You also acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister will share with the .biz Registry Operator certain information submitted by you (either regarding you, or your customer if you are a reseller) in your application for BR's Services, as required by BR's agreement with the .biz Registry Operator or to provide the Services you have applied for. You acknowledge and agree that any information BR shares with the .biz Registry Operator may be used by it to fulfill the .biz Registry Operator's service obligations to BR or any third party. You hereby grant BR and the .biz Registry Operator a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive worldwide license to use all of the data contained in your application.
Disclaimer Concerning Intellectual Property Notification Service. Your participation in an intellectual property notification service or similar service DOES NOT PROVIDE YOU WITH ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTIONS OR REGISTRATIONS, NOR DOES IT PROVIDE YOU WITH ANY RIGHTS TO ANY PARTICULAR DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION. THIS IS A NOTIFICATION SERVICE ONLY. EVEN IF YOU PARTICIPATE IN THIS SERVICE, YOU MUST STILL SUBMIT AN APPLICATION FOR DOMAIN NAME REGISTRATION SERVICES TO BE ELIGIBLE TO BECOME THE REGISTRANT FOR THE DESIRED DOMAIN NAME(S).
Survival of Terms. You agree that the indemnity provisions set forth in this Schedule shall survive any termination of the Agreement.
Conduct. You agree to be bound by the applicable provisions of the .biz Registry Operator's Acceptable Use Policy, incorporated herein and made part of this Agreement by reference, in connection with your use of the Services described in this Schedule.
Third Party Beneficiary. NeuLevel, Inc. is an intended third party beneficiary of this Agreement with rights to enforce this Agreement with respect to issues relating to the .biz gTLD. You will cooperate in good faith with NeuLevel, Inc. or BR in investigating instances of non-compliance with this Agreement, if NeuLevel, Inc. or BulkRegister believes in good faith that you are not in compliance with this Agreement.
Content and Data. You agree that BulkRegister and NeuLevel, Inc. are not responsible for checking, verifying or editing message content or completeness, or for detecting errors or anomalies, or for recreating or re-transmitting data.
In addition to the terms set forth in Sections 1 through 17 and Schedule A of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to .info domain names.
BulkRegister will share with the .info Registry Operator, Afilias Limited, certain information submitted by you in your application(s) for BR's Services relating to the .info TLD, and you consent to the use, copying, distribution, publication, modification and other processing of your personal data by the .info Registry Operator and its designees and agents in connection with the .info Registry Operator's service obligations to BR or third parties, or as otherwise deemed necessary by the .info Registry Operator;
you will submit to proceedings commenced under the UDRP and, with respect to remaining "Sunrise Challenges", if any, the Sunrise Dispute Resolution Policy ("SDRP") (available at http://www.afilias.info/faq/sunrise-challenge.html), as these may be modified from time to time; (iii) you will immediately correct and update the registration information for any domain name registered hereunder during the registration term for such registered domain name; and (iv) the .info Registry Operator will have no liability of any kind for any loss or liability resulting from the proceedings and processes relating to your .info domain name registration, including, without limitation:
Registry Actions or Inactions. BR's ability to provide Services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .info Registry Operator. BR cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties. For example, the .info Registry Operator has reserved the right to issue a Sunrise Challenge, at any time, to domain names that were registered during the .info Sunrise Period, all as described in more detail in the Dispute Resolution Section of the .info Registry Operator's website located at http://www.afilias.info/register/dispute_resolution/ and the subparts thereof. You acknowledge and agree that BR shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .info Registry Operator.
No Guarantee on Registration. The .info Registry Operator, and not BulkRegister, determines the dates and times associated with the various service periods available in the .info TLD. You agree to review and become familiar with the information available on the BulkRegister Website and on the .info website concerning the various periods and descriptions of services available in connection with .info TLD, and to regularly check for modifications and/or updates to such information, as the same may change from time to time. You agree that you are solely responsible for applying and/or registering for the service periods you desire to participate in. You acknowledge and agree that submission of an application for domain name registration or any other services (regardless of when submitted), does not guarantee that you will ultimately be the registrant for a particular domain name.
Disclaimer Concerning Intellectual Property Protection. Your application for a .info domain name registration DOES NOT PROVIDE YOU WITH ANY INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY PROTECTIONS OR REGISTRATIONS.
Use of Other Registrars. You agree that BR may, but is not obligated to, submit your registration application and/or information through another ICANN accredited registrar ("Third Party Registrar") if BR believes, in BR's sole discretion, that doing so will provide you with a better opportunity for successfully registering a .info domain name. Should BR's submission result in the registration of a .info domain name for you, you acknowledge and agree that you will also then be a customer of the Third Party Registrar through which your domain name is registered. If BR does submit your registration application and/or information through a Third Party Registrar, and a .info domain name is registered to you through that Third Party Registrar, you agree that in addition to your agreement with BulkRegister, you will be bound by the following terms and conditions in this Agreement with respect to the Third Party Registrar for so long as you are receiving registration services through that Third Party Registrar:
You agree that BulkRegister shall have the right, but not the obligation, to submit a change of registrar request to the Third Party Registrar, if any, through which your domain name is registered to transfer the sponsorship of your domain name to BulkRegister at any time after the expiration of sixty (60) calendar days from the registration of the domain name, and you hereby authorize and direct BulkRegister to effect such a transfer if BulkRegister decides, in its sole discretion, that it wishes to effect such a transfer. You will not be required to pay any transfer or new service fees to affect the transfer.
In addition to the terms set forth in this Agreement and Schedule A of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to .name domain names.
Eligibility Requirements. You represent and warrant that every registration you are applying for in the .name TLD satisfies the eligibility requirements ("Eligibility Requirements") established by Global Name Registry Ltd., the registry for the .name TLD, which are available at the following URL: http://www.icann.org/tlds/agreements/name/registry-agmt-appl-03jul01.htm
Dispute Resolution Policies. You agree that every Service for which you register is subject to the UDRP and, to the extent it remains applicable, the Eligibility Requirements Dispute Resolution Policy (the "ERDRP"). Without limiting the foregoing, you agree that (i) every Defensive Registration is subject to challenge pursuant to the ERDRP; (ii) if a Defensive Registration is successfully challenged pursuant to the ERDRP, the Defensive Registration Holder will pay the challenge fees; (iii) if a challenge to a Defensive Registration is successful, the Defensive Registration will be subject to the procedures described in the ERDRP and the Eligibility Requirements including, without limitation, the cancellation of the Defensive Registration Holder's other Defensive Registrations. In the event the Defensive Registration Holder is unable to demonstrate the foregoing with respect to any Defensive Registration, the Defensive Registration will be cancelled.
Limitation of Liability. In addition to the other limitations of liability contained herein, you agree that neither the .name registry nor BulkRegister shall have any liability of any kind for any loss or liability resulting from (i) the processing of registration requests for .name domains, including, without limitation, your ability or inability to obtain a Registered Name, a second-level domain e-mail address registration (an "SLD E-mail Address"), a Defensive Registration, or a NameWatch Registration using the services provided by BulkRegister or the .name registry; or (ii) any dispute over any Registered Name, SLD E-mail Address, Defensive Registration, or NameWatch Registration, including any dispute resolution proceeding related to any of the foregoing.
Registry Actions or Inactions. BR's ability to provide Services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .name registry. BR cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties. You acknowledge and agree that BR shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .name registry.

You certify that you have the authority to enter into this Agreement;
For applications during the Sunrise Period for .pro domain names, you certify that the registration qualifies for a Sunrise Registration, as set forth in Appendix J of the Registry Agreement between BR and the .pro Registry Operator.

You acknowledge that BR reserves the right to reject any application to register a domain name for any reason or no reason, including but not limited to if either BR or the .pro Registry Operator reasonably believes the registration does not satisfy the conditions for a registration (including, without limitation, the Sunrise Registration conditions or .pro eligibility requirements).

This indemnification obligation survives the termination or expiration of the registration agreement.
In addition to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and Schedule A of this Agreement, the following terms shall apply to Services that BR offers with respect to various ccTLDs. Your registration of a domain name in any ccTLD (each a "TLD Domain Name") is subject to the additional terms, conditions and policies established or revised from time to time by the specific registry for such TLD Domain Name ("ccTLD Registry"). You are responsible to review and abide by each respective ccTLD Registry's current terms, conditions and policies ("TLD Registry Policies"), which are available for you to review at each TLD Registry's respective website.

You acknowledge and agree that you have reviewed and satisfied yourself as to the obligations and conditions contained in the applicable TLD Registry Policies.

By submitting an order for any ccTLD Services, you represent and warrant to BulkRegister that the order is consistent with the applicable TLD Registry Policies established by the applicable ccTLD Registry. Through this Agreement and the disclosure on the BulkRegister Website, if BR is supplying any of your personal data to a third party service provider or any applicable ccTLD Registry in connection with registration or renewal of a TLD Domain Name, including BR's Privacy Policy, BR is hereby providing notice to you of, and you hereby consent to: (i) the purposes for which your personal data has been collected, (ii) the intended recipients or categories of recipients of your personal data, (iii) which parts of your data are obligatory and which parts, if any, are voluntary; and (iv) how you can access and, if necessary, rectify the data held about you.

Your obligation to Satisfy Nexus Requirement. You acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility, through the registration process (and, if applicable, as required subsequent to your application), to provide the information necessary to satisfy the .us Nexus Requirements, and that a failure by you to satisfy the .us Nexus Requirements may result in, among other things, (i) the domain name application(s) being rejected by BulkRegister and/or the .us Registry, (ii) the domain name(s) being placed on "hold" by BulkRegister and/or the .us Registry, and/or (iii) the domain name(s) being deleted by BulkRegister and/or the .us Registry. Neither BulkRegister nor the .us Registry (nor any other entity or person) shall be liable to you for any actions or inactions of any of them resulting from your failure to provide all required .us Nexus Requirements information at the time of registration (or, where applicable, subsequent to registration), and none of them shall have any obligation to request or attempt to obtain from you additional information to establish your compliance with the .us Nexus Requirements, even if the need for such information is known by any of them.

You agree to be bound by the Nexus Dispute Policy ("NDP") administered by the .us Registry (or a third party designated by the .us Registry), which policy and its applicable forms are located on the .us Registry's website at the URL: www.neustar.com.

Dispute Resolution Policy. You agree that you are bound by the United States Dispute Resolution Policy set forth on the .us Registry's website at the URL: www.neustar.com
Registry Actions or Inactions. BR's ability to provide Services to you depends in part upon the provision of services by third parties, such as the .us Registry. BR cannot control and will not be responsible for the actions or inactions of such third parties. You acknowledge and agree that BR shall not be liable to you or any other party in connection with claims, damages, losses, expenses or costs incurred or suffered by you as a result of actions taken or not taken by third parties, including, but not limited to, the .us Registry (for example, the .us Registry reserves the right to deny, delete, transfer or freeze any domain name registration for a variety of reasons, none of which BulkRegister can control).
Accurate Information. Without limiting the other provisions of the Agreement, your willful or grossly negligent provision of inaccurate or unreliable information, or your willful or grossly negligent failure promptly to update information provided to BulkRegister, shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and shall be a basis for cancellation of the domain name(s) applied for hereunder.
Application Submission. You acknowledge and agree that BulkRegister will be submitting your .us domain name application(s) to the .us Registry through Neustar, and that all applications submitted by you hereunder (except for Sunrise applications, where applicable) will be submitted by BulkRegister on or after the date upon which the .us Registry goes live.

In order to maintain a .kids.us domain, the content you post must be "kid-friendly," which means that it cannot include any mature content or pornography, inappropriate language, violence, hate speech, references to drugs, alcohol or tobacco, gambling, weapons or other unsuitable subject matter. In addition, .kids.us web sites will not be permitted to enable two-way or multi-user interactive services or links to URLs outside of the .kids.us domain.
To ensure compliance with the Dot Kids Implementation and Efficiency Act and other applicable laws, a "Content Manager" has been established by NeuStar and the National Telecommunications and Information Administration ("NITA") to promulgate rules and policies for reviewing content on .kids.us web sites. At this time, any content must initially be approved by the Content Manager before it may reside on the .kids.us domain. Once the website is live, the Content Manager will review the content periodically to check compliance with the restrictions on prohibited subject matter. If there is an alleged violation, the domain operator may have an opportunity to correct the problem or undergo an additional review. If the offense is severe, the Content Manager may immediately remove the website, pending further review.
