Domain Name Registration Information and Its Use
A. Information You Are Required to Submit.
As part of the registration process,
you are required to provide certain information and to update promptly
this information as requested by GKG, to keep it current, complete
and accurate. The information you are obligated to provide in connection
with the domain name you are registering is the following:

You
agree and acknowledge that when you renew your domain name registration,
the type of information you are required to provide may have
changed. If you do not wish to provide the new required information,
your registration may not be renewed.
All other
information which we may request from you at registration is voluntary.
However, not providing this information may prevent you from obtaining
all products and services made available to domain name registrants
by us, other than registration of the domain name.

C. Obligations Relating to Provided Data.
In the event that, in registering the domain name, you are providing information about a third party,
you hereby represent that you have (a) provided notice to that
third party of the disclosure and use of that party's information
as set forth in this Agreement, and (b) that you have obtained
that third party's express consent to the disclosure and use of
that party's information as set forth in this Agreement.
You acknowledge
that willfully providing inaccurate information or willfully failing
to update information promptly will constitute a material breach
of this Agreement and will be sufficient basis for cancellation of
your domain name registration. You further agree that your failure
to respond within fifteen (15) calendar days to inquiries by GKG
concerning the accuracy of contact details associated with your registration
shall constitute a material breach of this Agreement and will be
sufficient basis for cancellation of your domain name registration.
D. Disclosure and Use of Registration Information.
You agree and acknowledge
that GKG will make available domain name registration information
you provide or that we otherwise maintain to ICANN, to the registry
administrator(s), and to other third parties as ICANN and applicable
laws may require or permit. You further agree and acknowledge that
GKG may make publicly available, or directly available to third
party vendors, some, or all, of the domain name registration information
you provide, for purposes of inspection (such as through our WHOIS
service) or for targeted marketing and other purposes as required
or permitted by ICANN and applicable laws.
Additionally,
you acknowledge that ICANN may establish guidelines, limits and/or
requirements that relate to the amount and type of information that
GKG may or must make available to the public or to private entities,
and the manner in which such information is made available.
You hereby
consent to any and all such disclosures and use of, and guidelines,
limits and restrictions on disclosure or use of, information provided
by you in connection with the registration of a domain name (including
any updates to such information), whether during or after the term
of your registration of the domain name. You hereby irrevocably
waive any and all claims and causes of action you may have arising
from such disclosure or use of your domain name registration information
by GKG.
You may
access your domain name registration information in GKG's possession
to review, modify or update such information, by accessing our domain
manager service, or similar service, made available at our Web site
(http://www.gkg.net).
We will
not process data about any identified or identifiable natural person
that we obtain from you in a way incompatible with the purposes and
other limitations which we describe in this Agreement.
GKG will
take reasonable precautions to protect the information it obtains
from you from our loss, misuse, unauthorized access or disclosure,
alteration or destruction of that information.
