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.
| | 1.4 |
We shall not release any domain to another provider unless full payment for that domain has been received by us.
