contact for the Registered Name as well as payment information. This allows us to safely process and fulfill
your registration, as well as to notify you of your registration status. We log the IP address for address
verification purposes. However, the "IP" address is never used for any other purpose than to process yourregistration.

However, you agree that this may not always be possible andthe publication of some of your personal information in the WHOIS database may be required by theRegistry Operator.
Even if you use ID Shield (and your personal data is hidden and remains unpublished) it is yourresponsibility to maintain accurate account information at all times, and failure to do so could result in thesuspension or deletion of your domains and account.

WE ONLY USE THE INFORMATION TO PROCESS, CONFIRM
AND NOTIFY YOU OF THE SPECIFIC REGISTRATION YOU ARE MAKING, AS WELL AS COMPLYWITH ICANN REGULATIONS.
