Domain Registration Agreement
Last updated 6 November 2026
This agreement applies when you register, renew or transfer a domain through Plotdomain. It works together with our Terms of Service.
1. Parties and registrar
Plotdomain resells domain registration services. Your domain is registered through an ICANN-accredited registrar. Our registrar partner is currently GoDaddy, and its Domain Name Registration Agreement also applies to you: https://www.godaddy.com/legal/agreements/domain-name-registration-agreement
If our registrar partner changes, we will tell you and publish the new details here.
2. You are the registrant
You are the registrant of record for the domain, which means the person or organisation named in its registration data. You are responsible for the domain, its use and its renewal.
3. What you confirm
- The registrant details you give are accurate and complete, and you will keep them up to date.
- You have the right to register and use the name, and to your knowledge it does not infringe anyone's trademark or other rights.
- You will not use the domain for anything unlawful or in breach of our acceptable use rules.
4. Verifying your details
ICANN requires registrars to verify registrant contact details. If you receive a verification email, respond within 15 days. If you do not, or if your details are false, the domain can be suspended and eventually cancelled.
5. Disputes over names
Domains in generic extensions (such as .com, .net, .org, .info, .xyz, .club and .app) are subject to ICANN's Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy (UDRP) and, where it applies, the Uniform Rapid Suspension system. Country and special extensions (such as .co and .io) follow their own registry rules. You agree to take part in a dispute procedure if a complaint is filed against your domain.
6. Registry rules
Each registry sets rules for its extension (eligibility, reserved names, pricing, renewal and redemption fees). These apply to you in addition to this agreement.
7. Term, renewal and expiry
A registration lasts for the term you paid for. Renewal prices are shown before purchase. If a domain is not renewed it can be suspended, enter a redemption period with extra fees, and then be released.
8. Transfers and locks
New registrations, and domains whose registrant details were recently changed, may be locked against transfer to another registrar for 60 days. To transfer a domain you need its authorisation (EPP) code, which we give only to the registrant after identity checks.
9. How your data is used
To register a domain we must pass your registrant details to the registrar and registry, and they may be held by a data escrow provider. Some fields can appear in public domain records unless redacted. See our Privacy Policy.
10. Our rights
We, the registrar or the registry may suspend, lock, transfer or cancel a domain if required by law, a court order, a registry or ICANN policy, or if you break this agreement. Where this is caused by your breach, no refund is due.
11. Changes and law
We may update this agreement, and will tell you of important changes. It is governed by the laws of Ghana, and any ICANN or registry policy that applies to your domain.
