# Domain Registration Terms

**Effective date:** [TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER]
 **Last updated:** [TO BE CONFIRMED
BY OWNER] **Legal entity:** [LEGAL ENTITY — TO BE CONFIRMED] **Contact:** [CONTACT—
TO BE CONFIRMED] **Registrar:** [REGISTRAR — TO BE CONFIRMED]

These Domain Registration Terms govern domain names registered, renewed, or transferred
through Offshore Hosting. They form part of our [Terms of Service](https://offshorehosting.pk/terms-of-service/).
Domain registrations are also subject to the policies of the relevant registry and
of ICANN, where applicable.

## 1. Registration

 * When you order a domain, we submit the registration to the registrar on your 
   behalf. Registration is complete only when the registry confirms it.
 * You must provide accurate registrant information: your legal name, a working 
   email address, and current contact details. False or outdated registrant information
   can lead to suspension or loss of the domain.
 * Availability of a domain name is not guaranteed until the registry confirms the
   registration. A name that appears available during ordering may already be taken.
 * The registration period and price are stated at the time of ordering. Registration
   period and pricing: [TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER].

## 2. Eligibility

 * You must be at least 18 years old to register a domain.
 * Some domain extensions have eligibility rules — for example, country-code domains
   may require a local presence or specific documentation. If the extension you 
   want has such rules, we will tell you before completing the registration.
 * You must not register a domain that infringes another person’s trademark or other
   rights, or that is intended to deceive, defame, or impersonate. Disputes over
   domain rights are resolved under the applicable dispute policy, not by us.

## 3. Renewal

 * Domains must be renewed before their expiry date to remain active. Renewal is
   your responsibility.
 * Auto-renewal, if offered, is [TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER]. If auto-renewal is enabled,
   your payment method will be charged before expiry. Keep your payment details 
   current, or the renewal may fail.
 * Renewal reminders are sent to the email address on the account. Reminder schedule:[
   TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER]. You are responsible for keeping that email address
   current and for reading renewal notices.
 * If a domain is not renewed by its expiry date, it stops working. A grace or redemption
   period may follow, during which renewal is still possible, usually at a higher
   fee. Grace and redemption periods and fees: [TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER]. After
   the redemption period ends, the domain may be released and registered by someone
   else, and we cannot recover it once that happens.

## 4. Transfers

 * **Transfer in:** to transfer a domain to us, you need the authorisation code (
   EPP code) from your current registrar, and the domain must be unlocked. Transfer
   requirements and fees: [TO BE CONFIRMED BY OWNER].
 * **Transfer out:** you may transfer your domain to another registrar, subject 
   to the rules of the registry and ICANN. We will not unreasonably refuse a transfer
   out, but a transfer may be blocked where the domain is within 60 days of registration
   or a previous transfer, where the domain is locked, or where there is an outstanding
   dispute or unpaid balance on the account.
 * A transfer does not move your website or email by itself. Moving the site is 
   a separate step — see our [Migration](https://offshorehosting.pk/migration/) 
   page.

## 5. Privacy and WHOIS

 * Domain registration details are published in the public WHOIS database by the
   registry, as required by ICANN and registry policy. That means your name, email,
   and address may be publicly visible.
 * WHOIS privacy or proxy protection, if offered, replaces your details in the public
   record with the privacy service’s details. Availability and cost: [TO BE CONFIRMED
   BY OWNER]. Even with privacy protection, your real details must be held by the
   registrar and provided to the registry where required, and may be disclosed where
   the law requires it.
 * You must keep your contact details accurate even when privacy protection is enabled.
   If we cannot reach you at the email on record, you may lose the ability to manage
   or recover the domain.

## 6. Recovery

 * If your domain expires, renewal during the grace period is the normal recovery
   route. Fees and time limits are in section 3.
 * If you lose access to the email address on the domain, contact support. We will
   ask for proof of identity and ownership before changing the contact details, 
   to protect the registrant. If your domain was transferred away without your authorisation,
   contact support immediately — recovery depends on the registry’s rules and on
   how quickly the unauthorised transfer is reported.
 * We cannot guarantee recovery of a domain that has expired past its redemption
   period, or that has been registered by someone else after release.

## 7. Disputes

Disputes over domain names — including trademark-based complaints — are handled 
under the dispute policy of the relevant registry or ICANN’s Uniform Domain-Name
Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP), where applicable. We do not decide who is entitled
to a domain. If we receive a court order or a UDRP decision affecting your domain,
we will comply with it.

## 8. Suspension and Cancellation

We may suspend or cancel a domain registration where required by the registry or
registrar, where ordered by a court, where the registrant information is false, 
or where the domain is used in violation of our [Acceptable Use Policy](https://offshorehosting.pk/acceptable-use-policy/)
or [Terms of Service](https://offshorehosting.pk/terms-of-service/).

## 9. Refunds

Domain registrations and renewals are not refundable once completed, because the
registration fee cannot be recovered from the registry. See our [Refund Policy](https://offshorehosting.pk/refund-policy/).

## 10. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Domain Registration Terms from time to time. The current version
will be published on this page with its effective date.

## 11. Contact

Questions about these terms, or about a domain registered through us, should be 
sent to [CONTACT — TO BE CONFIRMED].
