6. REGISTRATION OF FREEDOMAIN.TK

6.1 Registration Process; Registration Information; Password. To become a member of FREEDOMAIN.TK, you must complete the registration process by providing us with current, complete and accurate information to the questions and information requests presented in the FREEDOMAIN.TK registration form and the FREEDOMAIN.TK confirmation email. You hereby agree to maintain and promptly update such registration information to keep it current, complete and accurate. If we have reasonable grounds to believe that you have failed to provide complete and accurate registration information or that you have failed to update such information, we, in our sole discretion, may deem such failure to be a violation of this Agreement, which may subject you to the penalties set forth in Section 11.4. Dot TK requests that you choose a password to be used in operating FREEDOMAIN.TK. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password and for any and all activities that occur under your domain name. You agree to notify Dot TK immediately upon discovery of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security relating to FREEDOMAIN.TK.

6.2 Registration for one to three domain names. You as an individual are eligible to receive from one (1) to a maximum of three (3) domain names from us in connection with FREEDOMAIN.TK, regardless of how many aliases you may have. By accepting this Agreement, you hereby represent and warrant to us that you have only registered for and received from one (1) and no more than three (3) domain names through FREEDOMAIN.TK and you further agree that you will not seek to register for or receive additional domain names through FREEDOMAIN.TK. Your registration of more than three (3) domain name through the service constitutes a violation of this Agreement, and may subject you to the penalties set forth in Section 11.4. You hereby further acknowledge and agree that we, in our sole discretion, may make any determination as to whether you have registered for and received multiple domain names through FREEDOMAIN.TK.

6.3 Timing of Registration of Domain Name. You acknowledge and agree that, upon completion of the registration process, we may for any or no reason indefinitely delay the registration of your requested domain name or elect to not register such domain name at all. Accordingly, there is no guarantee that we will actually register your requested domain name in a timely manner, if at all. In the event that we delay registration of or elect to not register your requested domain name and a third party registers for the identical domain name, you agree that we will have no liability to you or any third party for the delay in registration of or failure to register your requested domain name. In the event another person registers for the same domain name that you have requested, our current policy is to provide the domain name to the person who replies first to our confirmation e-mail message. If it is crucial to you that you have your requested domain name registered immediately, we suggest that you purchase the domain name directly from a domain name registrar, or elect to purchase a domain with PAIDDOMAIN.TK or SPECIALDOMAIN.TK. To purchase your Dot TK Paid domain, please visit the Dot TK website at http://www.dot.tk.

You shall retain such right to use the service for so long as you comply with each of the terms of this Agreement, and for so long as we make the service available to you. Upon termination of this Agreement, and/or the service, your right to use FREEDOMAIN.TK shall terminate and, unless you have transferred out of the service in accordance with the provisions of Section 11.3, or upgraded to one of our paid services, all rights in and to the domain name provided to you in connection therewith shall inure to the benefit of Dot TK as provided in Section 11 herein.
