Registrant agrees, as a condition to submitting this Registration Agreement, and if the Registration Agreement is accepted by EziHosting, that the Registrant is bound by EziHosting's current Dispute Policy (Dispute Policy). The current Dispute Policy can be found here. Registrant agrees that EziHosting, in its sole discretion, may change or modify the Dispute Policy, incorporated by reference herein, at any time. Registrant agrees that Registrant's maintaining the registration of a domain name after changes or modifications to the Dispute Policy become effective constitutes Registrant's continued acceptance of these changes or modifications. Registrant agrees that if Registrant considers any such changes or modifications to be unacceptable, Registrant may request that the domain name be deleted from the domain name database. Registrant agrees that any dispute relating to registration or use of its domain name will be subject to the provisions specified in the Dispute Policy. Without prejudice to other potentially applicable jurisdictions, Registrant submits to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Tasmania, Australia, and to the courts of the Registrant's domicile in relation to Disputes.

8.    Agents

Registrant agrees that if this Registration Agreement is completed by an agent for the Registrant, such as an Authorised Reseller or Administrative Contact/Agent, the Registrant is nonetheless bound as a principal by all terms and conditions herein, including the Dispute Policy.

9.    Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Registrant agrees that EziHosting has any liability to the Registrant for any loss Registrant may incur in connection with EziHosting's processing of this Registration Agreement, or the processing of any authorized modification to the domain name's record during the covered period, or the failure by the Registrant's agent to pay either the registration fee or renewal fee, or as a result of the application of the provisions of the Dispute Policy. Registrant agrees that in no event will the liability of EziHosting under this Agreement for any matter exceed, in the sole option of EziHosting, the re-supply of the services again or the fee paid to EziHosting for the provision of the services.

10.    Indemnity

Registrant agrees to indemnify, keep indemnified and hold EziHosting (or other registry administrator), their directors, officers, employees and agents harmless from and against all and any and all claims, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) arising out of or relating to Registrant's domain name registration or to the use of your domain name.

11.    Breach

Registrant agrees that failure to abide by any provision of this Registration Agreement or the Dispute Policy may be considered by EziHosting to be a material breach and that EziHosting may provide a notice, describing the breach, to the Registrant. If, within thirty (30) days of the date of such notice, the Registrant fails to provide evidence, which is reasonably satisfactory to EziHosting, that it has not breached its obligations, then EziHosting may delete Registrant's registration of the domain name. Any such breach by a Registrant shall not be deemed to be excused simply because EziHosting did not act earlier in response to that, or any other, breach by the Registrant. Notice may be given by mail, facsimile or electronic means.

12.    No Warranty by EziHosting

Registrant agrees that registration of a domain name grants no legal rights to the name, nor does it confer immunity from objection to either the registration or use of the domain name.

13.    Warranty

Registrant warrants that, to the best of Registrant's knowledge and belief, neither the registration of the domain name nor the manner in which it is directly or indirectly used infringes the legal rights of a third party. Breach of this warranty will constitute a material breach.

14.    Revocation

Registrant agrees that EziHosting may delete a Registrant's domain name if this Registration Agreement, or subsequent modification(s) thereto, contains false or misleading information, or conceals or omits any information EziHosting would likely consider material to its decision to approve this Registration Agreement.

15.    Right of Refusal

Registrant acknowledges that NSI or ICANN policy provides registration of certain domain names is prohibited. EziHosting, in its sole discretion, reserves the right to refuse to approve the Registration Agreement for any Registrant. Registrant agrees that the submission of this Registration Agreement does not obligate EziHosting to accept this Registration Agreement. Registrant agrees that EziHosting is not liable for loss or damage that may result from EziHosting's refusal to accept this Registration Agreement.
