Restrictions
a. Domain registrations under the Top Level
Domain .biz are restricted to (intended)
use for business or commercial purposes.
This means that the domain as such can only
be used:
for the exchange of goods, services or property
of any kind and
in ordinary course of trade or business
or to simplify the above activities.
The same applies if the .biz domain is used
to make possible access to content, software,
graphics or other materials using the Internet
addressing system (DNS- Domain Name System).
Registration of a .biz domain merely for
the purpose of selling, trading or leasing
it for compensation is not a permissible
use.
You can see details of the restrictions
at http://www.neulevel.biz/ardp/index.html.
b. The customer warrants that the .biz domain
will be used in compliance with the above
regulations and that he or she is entitled
to register it. The customer also warrants
that the .biz domain is demonstrably in
connection with a (proposed) commercial
use at the time of registration.
Data transmission
a. The customer is obliged to provide accurate
data in accordance with 5c of the General
Terms and Conditions of Business and Registration.
The customer also has the opportunity to
forward a remark relating to the .biz domain
for publication in the WHOIS database.
b. The customer warrants that the data provided
is accurate. If the data provided is incorrect
or no correction is received within five
days of enquiry by the Neulevel registry
to the contact persons published in the
WHOIS database, this constitutes a violation
of the agreement.
Domain disputes
a. If the customer reserves or registers
a .biz domain, he or she agrees to the following
procedures:
Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy, accessible
at http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp.htm. The
basic features of the procedure are explained
in figure 6 of the General Terms and Conditions
of Business and Registration.
Start-up Trademark Opposition Policy ("STOP"),
accessible at http://www.neulevel.com/countdown/stop.html
The STOP governs the conditions for a dispute
between a third party and the customer if
this relates to the so- called Intellectual
Property Claim service. This is a service
created by the registry to notify trademark
holders if a domain was registered which
the trademark holders claim rights to. These
rights can be asserted before an independent
ICANN-accredited dispute resolution provider.
Restrictions Dispute Resolution Criteria
and Rules, accessible at http://www.neulevel.com/countdown/rdrp.html.
The procedure described in these regulations
is for claims before an independent ICANN-accredited
dispute resolution provider that a registration
is not being used for commercial purposes.
The Neulevel registry does not check the
permissibility of the use.
b. The Neulevel registry
reserves the right to change the procedures
described above with notification of 30
days. If the customer does not agree to
such a change he or she is entitled to terminate
the registration agreement. Payments made
will not be refunded. If the customer continues
with the reservation or registration, this
is done on the amended conditions.
c. The customer indemnifies the Neulevel
registry from all disadvantages within the
framework of domain disputes.
d. Once claims have been filed against the
customer with respect to the .biz domain
the customer is no longer entitled to make
changes to the domain data without prior
written agreement of the Neulevel registry.
The Neulevel registry will only make changes
if
a request to this effect is made by an entity
authorised to make a decision or
notification is received from the third
party and the customer that the dispute
has been resolved.
Reservations
EIS and the Neulevel registry reserve the
right to refuse, delete or transfer registrations
at their discretion if necessary to maintain
orderly operation of the registry, comply
with statutory or official regulations,
on the instruction of a public prosecutor,
within the framework of the above regulations
or to avoid civil or criminal liability
of EIS or Neulevel registry or their employees.
EIS and Neulevel registry also reserve the
right to ?freeze? a .biz domain during current
proceedings.
