5.1 Buyers/User Responsibilities
Nothing in this Agreement or appearing on the Digital Assets site shall be construed to imply that the seller possesses any rights to a domain name beyond those specified in the seller’s service agreement with the relevant domain name registrar or service provider.
The user understands that the purchase of a domain name does not guarantee that the domain name may be freely used by the purchaser. Among other things, trademark law, the rights of publicity and privacy, and other legal considerations may limit or even prohibit certain uses of the domain name. Buyers are advised to consult legal counsel prior to purchasing a domain name in order to determine whether it may be used for the buyer"s intended purpose under applicable law.
Prior to the purchase and transfer of the domain name from seller to the buyer, it is the buyer’s sole responsibility to read, understand and agree to the following:
5.2 Domain name Transfer and Registration
Digital Assets makes no representation that the domain name you wish to register is capable of being registered by or for you or that it will be registered in your name. You should therefore not assume registration of your requested domain name(s) until you have been notified that it has or they have been registered. Any action taken by you before such notification is at your own risk.
The registration and use of your domain name is subject to the terms and conditions of use applied by the relevant registrar and naming authority. You must ensure that you are aware of those terms and conditions and that you agree to comply with them. You shall have no right to bring any claim against Digital Assets in respect of refusal to register a domain name or cancellation of the domain name by the relevant naming authority.
Digital Assets shall have no liability in respect of the use by you of any domain name. Any dispute between you and any other person must be resolved between the parties concerned in such dispute. If any such dispute arises, prior to the completed transfer of the domain name from seller to buyer, we shall be entitled at our discretion and without giving any reason, to withhold, suspend or cancel the domain name. We shall also be entitled to make representations to the relevant naming authority but will not be obliged to take part in any such dispute.
Digital Assets gives no warranty that your domain name is or will continue to be available for your use or that no domain name is or will be registered which conflicts with your domain name or which otherwise affects your use of your domain name.
5.3. Transfer Process and Restrictions
Digital Assets will deliver a Domain Name Transfer Contract (DNTC) to the buyer for review via email or facsimile to the address provided by the buyer. A confirmation of receipt will be requested of the buyer by Digital Assets.
The Buyer will be asked to acknowledge and agree to the terms within the Domain Name Transfer Contract (DNTC) and scan and return it, signed, via email to contracts@digitalassetsglobal.com
A confirmation of receipt will be delivered to the buyer by Digital Assets.
Should the contract be received after 3 days have elapsed, Digital Assets reserves the right to sell the domain name to another buyer.
Once it is acknowledged and agreed to, the Domain Name Transfer Contract will become a legally binding document subject to the following:
5.4 Denial of Transfer
The request to transfer a domain name registration from one Registrar to another may be denied:
(1) during the first 60 days after initial registration of the domain name with the original Registrar,
(2) in accordance with circumstances described in the Domain Name Dispute Policy,
(3) if there is a pending bankruptcy of the domain name holder,
(4) if there is a dispute over the identity of the domain name holder,
(5) by operation of law; or
(6) at the discretion of the then current Registrar.
A domain name transfer shall only take place when the owner confirms the intentions of the transferor by sending, where applicable, a reply email. If, for any reason, the owner fails to confirm any information contained in the email, the domain name transfer shall not occur.
Although all care is taken, Digital Assets is not liable for domains that become deactivated or lost during the transfer and/or renewal process.
5.5 Payments and charges
All payments must be in US Dollars, unless otherwise agreed by Digital Assets and the buyer.
If Payments are made in Australian Dollars by Australian Residents a 10% GST charge will apply, and the appropriate Tax Invoice will be issued.
Payments made via escrow.com are payable immediately upon signing the Domain Name Transfer Contact. Payments are made in advance of the transfer of the name, and once verified by escrow.com, or in the case of a local sale, Digital Assets, the seller will implement the transfer of ownership of the Domain name to the buyer. Once the transferral of ownership is completed and independently verified, the buyers funds will be released to the seller. All domain name sales will be deemed complete and final once transfer of the name from the seller to the buyer and receipt of full payment from escrow.com or from the buyer directly to the seller have been satisfactorily completed.
