4. PRODUCTS AND SERVICES
4.1 Domains
4.1.1 Domain Registration.
No representations are made as to the availability of a particular domain name requested for registration by you (Domain). Nocastra acts as a designated agent for handling your domains. You may request to transfer your domains to any other registrar according to ICANN’s Transfer Policy.
4.1.2 Details of renewal
In most cases, renewals will be renewed for the same period as the initial registration period, unless you instruct us in writing of any necessary amendments. At the time of renewal, the renewal fee will be charged at the prevailing rate. In order to ensure that the Domain will be renewed on time, we will take payment up to 7 days prior to the Domain renewal date.
4.1.3 Basis of Transfer.
The sole responsibility for completing any steps necessary to transfer the domain lies with you, including but not limited to: changing the Nominet IPS TAG of the domain, unlocking the domain name, supplying an authorization code, and approving a transfer request. Please inform us if you wish to cancel a transfer before Nocastra has commenced work on it and request a refund in accordance with our refund policy.
4.1.4 Expired Domains.
If a domain name is not renewed by its expiry date, it ceases to function and shall be deemed expired. If we are unable to process payment via the method provided, or if you have not renewed the domain by the renewal date, or if you have set the Domain for expiration or have not manually renewed the domain, the domain will expire.
Upon expiration, a domain may enter a grace and/or redemption period. Therefore, you acknowledge that we may, at our discretion, and within three calendar days of the expiration date of a domain, renew the domain; or, park the Domain with different name servers than those specified by you.
Following the expiration date, domains from registries that do not provide a grace period and/or redemption period may be unrecoverable by us, in which case our agreement will terminate immediately without further obligation. Furthermore, we are under no obligation to attempt to recover such a domain.
4.2 HOSTINGS
4.2.1 Free domain offers.
We offer some hosting packages that include free domain registration or transfer. Currently, this applies to a limited number of domain extensions and may change from time to time. Free registration or transfer may be allowed or disallowed at our discretion. Other extensions are not included in this offer and will incur additional charges. If a customer wishes to place an order using a different extension, a reduction in fees must be agreed upon in advance by both parties. All registrations are valid for one year. All future renewals of these domains will be charged at our regular renewal rate.
4.2.2 Purpose of services.
Our services are intended to be used for the purposes of hosting websites and sending email unless explicitly stated otherwise. Batch processing, video encoding/transcoding, web crawling/spidering, archiving/online backup systems, and any system other than hosting a website are not permitted on our shared or reseller hosting servers. These tools may only be used with our written permission on a dedicated server. We reserve the right to take proactive measures to maintain the stability of our systems for all clients.
4.2.3 Suitability of hosting environment.
We offer some packages with ‘unlimited’ services. This means that we do not actively limit the amount of disk space or bandwidth (or both). To ensure system stability, accounts are limited by resource usage in order to ensure that no one client can negatively affect the performance of other clients on shared and reseller servers. On dedicated servers, your resources are determined by the package you choose.
