A. Effects of Registration of Domain Names
A.1 The registrant has the right to use the domain name but not the right to own it. As such, the registrant generally does not have the right to sell or transfer the domain name to any party whether for profit or otherwise.
A.2 KNNIC shall not be involved in any dispute that the registrant may have with any third party. Any dispute arising from the registration and use of a domain name shall be determined in accordance with the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) and the Rules for Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy of World intellectual property organization (WIPO), which is available at http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp-policy-24oct99.htm and http://www.icann.org/udrp/udrp-rules-24oct99.htm.
A.3 The Registrant agrees that its registration of the Domain Name shall be subject to suspension, cancellation, or transfer pursuant to the RPPG and UDRP, and in particular, but without limitation, (1) to correct mistakes by Registrar or KNNIC in registering the Domain Name; or (2) for the resolution of disputes concerning the Domain Name;
A.4 The Registrant acknowledges and agrees that registration of a Domain Name does not create any proprietary right for any Registrant, Registrar or any other Person in the name used as a Domain Name or the Domain Name registration in the WHOIS system shall not be construed as evidence or ownership of the Domain Name registered as a Domain Name. The Registrant shall not in any way transfer or purport to transfer a proprietary right in any Domain Name registration, or grant or purport to grant as security or in any other manner encumber or purport to encumber a Domain Name registration. The Registrant shall represent that, to the best of the Registrant’s knowledge and belief, neither the registration of the Domain Name nor the manner in which it is directly or indirectly used infringes the legal rights of any third party;
A.5 The Registrant shall provide to Registrar complete and accurate data and promptly correct and update them during the term of the Domain Name registration;
A.6 A Registrant’s willful provision of incomplete and inaccurate or unreliable information, its willful failure promptly to update information provided to Registrar, or its failure to respond for over 15 days to inquiries by Registrar concerning the accuracy of contact details associated with the Registrant’s KNNIC registration shall constitute a material breach of the Registrant Agreement and be a basis for cancellation of the Domain Name registration.
