1. Fees
As consideration for the domain name registration services provided by the Internet Council of Registrars (“CORE”), you shall pay all applicable initial registration fees and renewal fees. You will be notified when renewal fees are due, and it shall be your responsibility to ensure that such fees are paid. Should these fees go unpaid by the time specified in the renewal notice, your registration will be cancelled. You agree that the Internet Council of Registrars (“CORE”) shall have no liability whatsoever with respect to any such cancellation, and that the Internet Council of Registrars (“CORE”) may cancel or reassign the domain name in the event of delinquency.

In applying for a domain name, you warrant that the registration is not made in bad faith and that the name does not conflict with another domain name. You agree to be bound by the current the Internet Council of Registrars (“CORE”) Domain Name Dispute Policy ("Dispute Policy") which is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The Dispute Policy can be found at http://spunkyworld.com/domains/disputepolicy.html. Any disputes regarding the right to use your domain name will be subject to the Dispute Policy. The Internet Council of Registrars (“CORE”) may modify the Dispute Policy in its sole discretion at any time. Your continued registration of your domain name after modification to the Dispute Policy becomes effective constitutes your acceptance of those modifications. If you do not agree to such a modification, you may request that your domain name be deleted

You agree that you will be subject to the provisions specified in the Dispute Policy in effect at the time your domain name is challenged by a third party.
