Domain Name Registration:
No representation is made 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
risk.
The registration and use of your domain name is subject to the terms and
conditions of use applied by the relevant naming authority; you shall
ensure that you are aware of those terms and conditions and that you
comply with them. You shall have no right to bring any claim against us in
respect of refusal to register a domain name or cancellation of the domain
name by the relevant naming authority. Any administration charge paid by
you to us shall be non-refundable notwithstanding refusal by the naming
authority to register your desired name.
We 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,
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.
We give 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.
We shall not release any domain to another provider unless full payment
for that domain has been received by us where domain name registration is
not a standard feature of that particular service provided by BROOKMAN CONSULTING LTD.

maintain adequate insurance cover in respect of any loss or damage to data
stored on the Server.

or similar rights of any person which may subsist under the laws
of any jurisdiction.

confidential information relating to your account and shall notify us
