Common use of COMMUNITY REGISTRATION POLICIES Clause in Contracts

COMMUNITY REGISTRATION POLICIES. Registry Operator shall implement and comply with all community registration policies described below and/or attached to this Specification 12. In the event Specification 12 conflicts with the requirements of any other provision of the Registry Agreement, such other provision shall govern. [Insert registration policies] Registrations within the community may initially be made by the following business, individuals or organizations: 1. Insurance companies regulated by a government authority (e.g., licensed, approved, certified); 2. Licensed insurance agents/agencies, brokers/brokerages or other equivalents (e.g., intermediaries, representatives) regulated by a government authority; 3. Associations whose members are primarily comprised of entities or individuals identified above in points 1 or 2; 4. Groups of associations whose members are primarily comprised of associations identified above in point 3; 5. Service providers that are principally owned by or predominantly supporting regulated entities identified above in points 1 or 2 (if approved by the Registry Operator Board of Directors); and 6. Government regulators of insurance companies, agents/agencies, brokers/brokerages or other equivalents (e.g., intermediaries, representatives) or organizations whose members are primarily comprised of such government regulators (if approved by the Registry Operator Board of Directors). To ensure strict compliance with these policies, Registry Operator will develop and implement a registrant eligibility and criteria process. This process requires collecting registrant information that will be used by the Registry Operator or its designated third party services provider, to authenticate the registrants’ eligibility to register in the TLD. As part of the registration process, applicants will be required to provide certain information to Registry Operator, or its designated third-­‐party service provider, to verify their eligibility to register a domain name in the TLD. This information may include, but is not limited to, the following: • Another proof of identity necessary to establish that the applicant is an eligible member of the TLD community (e.g., business license, certificate of formation, articles of incorporation, corporate operating agreement, charter documents, attorney opinion letter, mission statement for non-­‐profit organization) • For insurance companies, the assigned regulatory ID and government regulatory authority issuing its charter: • For agents/agencies, brokers/brokerages and intermediaries, the assigned license ID and government licensing agency issuing its permission to act as an agent, broker or intermediary. Registry Operator, a limited liability company formed and domiciled in the United States (U.S.), must comply with all U.S. laws, rules, and regulations. One such set of regulations is the economic and trade sanctions program administered by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) of the U.S. Department of the Treasury. These sanctions have been imposed on certain countries, as well as individuals and entities that appear on OFAC's List of Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (the SDN List). Registry Operator is prohibited from providing most goods or services to residents of sanctioned countries or their governmental entities or to SDNs without an applicable U.S. government authorization or exemption. Registry Operator, in its capacity as a global registry operator, must take into account all applicable laws, rules and regulations in the jurisdictions where it operates. As such, Registry Operator reserves the right to deny or cancel registrations based upon relevant sanctions, programs or standards administered and/or supported in other jurisdictions. Applicants who meet the eligibility requirements and have been authenticated will then be permitted to register domains in the TLD. Domain names that pass the vetting process will enter a pending create status before becoming allocated. Applicants whose domain name fails the vetting process will be notified with reasons for denial and procedures for appeal. Any applicant who is rejected for any reason can appeal the decision to Registry Operator. Registry Operator will audit all approved registrants and their domains to ensure compliance with all applicable eligibility and use requirements. Domains initially registered in the TLD must correspond to a trademark, trade name or other service mark of the registrant, unless otherwise agreed to by Registry Operator Board of Directors in consultation with the Advisory Council, and subject to compliance with Trademark Clearinghouse Rights Protection Mechanism Requirements. Registry Operator will initially not accept generic domain name registrations except to the extent permissible by ICANN for Registry Operator’s operations. Registry Operator will reserve a set of domain names prior to launch that will either be used in its capacity as Registry Operator as set forth in Specification 9 of the template Registry Agreement or may be allocated to members of the community upon approval by Registry Operator’s Board of Directors in consultation with the Advisory Council. The subset of domain names reserved for use by Registry Operator may be commonly used words and phrases and or geographic terms. Registry Operator will extend an enhanced rights protection mechanism that will offer trademark owners with the ability to challenge the registration or potential use of these domain names. This challenge process will be modeled after the highly successful dotAsia Pioneering Program.
