RWGUSA.com Legal Agreements

DOMAIN NAME TRANSFER AGREEMENT

This DOMAIN NAME TRANSFER AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made by and between Rightway Gate, Inc., a California Corporation ("RWG") and you and your heirs, agents, successors and assigns (collectively, "Customer"), and is made effective as of the date of acceptance. This agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of RWG’s domain name transfer services (“Services”).

Rightway Gate, Inc. (“RWG”) provides the Services under this Agreement in conjunction with 101domain GRS Limited, an ICANN-Accredited Registrar (“101domain”). Your acceptance of this Agreement signifies that you have read, understand, acknowledge, and agree to be bound by these terms and conditions along with all other applicable 101domain agreements which are incorporated herein by reference.

The terms "we", "us", or "our" shall refer to RWG. The terms "you", "your", "user", or "customer" shall refer to any individual or entity who accepts this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.

1. Transfers

You are able to transfer domain names to or from RWG according to the terms and transfer policies of the respective Registry for the TLD of the domain name you wish to transfer. Each Registry has its own unique transfer policy which RWG adheres to. For all TLDs under ICANN sponsorship, you may find more information on the transfer policy that RWG is required to follow for all TLDs under ICANN sponsorship here:

www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/transfers

In order to determine who the sponsoring registrar currently is for your domain name, please visit:

www.internic.net/whois.html

In order to protect your domain names, we may place a transfer lock on domain names in many TLDs automatically when they are registered or renewed with us. In order to transfer to another registrar, you must remove this transfer lock. You are able to do this from your account (“Account”) on the Site or by contacting domain support.

If you purchased Trustee Services or Private Registration Services from RWG when registering or renewing the domain name you would like to transfer out, we must cancel these services, and you are required to replace any of our information, documentation, or our Trustee’s information and/or documentation in relation to these services with your own information, before the transfer out will be approved by us.

You acknowledge that when cancelling these services, this action may qualify as an ownership change or other update to the domain name which may incur additional fees or require you to renew the domain name with us prior to transferring the domain name to another registrar. There will be no refund for partially fulfilled terms for Trustee Services or Private Registration Services.

In no event, shall RWG be liable for the failure of a transfer or loss of your domain name if the transfer is initiated close to the end of the registration term, the transfer is not approved by the Registrant or Administrative Contact of the domain name, the Fees for the Service remain unpaid or are in dispute, or any other reason outlined in ICANN or the Registry’s transfer policies.

2. Transferring Domain Names To RWG

(a) Upon successful transfer to RWG, RWG, or its partner(s), shall become the Registrar of record. You, or your designated Trustee, will become or remain the Registrant. Your registration will automatically be extended for one year (or more years upon request);

(b) Upon successful transfer to RWG, it is your responsibility to check the WHOIS information to ensure that it is complete and accurate. If the information is not complete and accurate, please submit a contact update request to us;

(c) Upon successful transfer to RWG, you will have control to renewal, modify dns, and perform other functions to the domain name available to you as a Registrant or Administrative Contact according to the terms of the Domain Name Registration Agreement;

(d) Transfers may only be initiated once you have accepted this Agreement, payment has been made, and you have approved the transfer through the Form of Authorization (“FOA”) received via email;

(e) You understand that if a domain name has been recently renewed or the Registry’s terms and conditions state otherwise, there is a potential the recent renewal year may be lost when transferring to RWG. You understand that RWG is not responsible for the lost year and will not credit your Account for this.

3. Transferring Domain Names From RWG

(a) Upon successful transfer of the domain name from RWG, RWG, or its partner(s) will no longer be the Registrar of record and will not have any control of the domain name. You will remain the Registrant at your new Registrar and must contact them for additional assistance.

(b) Transfers may only be initiated once you have accepted this Agreement, you have removed RWG’s Trustee Service with your own, and you have approved the transfer through the Form of Authorization (“FOA”) received via email;

(c) You understand that if a domain name has been recently renewed or the Registry’s terms and conditions state otherwise, there is a potential the recent renewal year may be lost when transferring from RWG. You understand that RWG is not responsible for the lost year and will not credit your Account for this.

(d) You understand that RWG may reject the transfer of your domain name from RWG under certain circumstances outlined here: www.icann.org/en/resources/registrars/transfers
