If you are a Project Creator, Your Content includes the name, logo, trademark, brand features, and other Content that you make available. Content does not include Project Code or Platform Code.

PROJECT

The Boxmode Platform is designed to give Project Creators the freedom to create, manage, and control their own web projects (“Project”).

A Project consists of Content and the software code (i.e., HTML, Javascript, or PHP code) that is interpreted by the Platform Code (as defined below) and used to provide the functionality for the Project (“Project Code”). Project Code consists of Boxmode proprietary code, Third Party Software (as defined below), and may also include or interact with Your Code (as defined below).

DOMAIN NAME SERVICES

Domain Registration Information

Boxmode provides registration and maintenance of domain names for Your Project(s) through one or more domain name registrars ("Domain Name Services"). All sales made through Domain Name Services are final. The registration and management of such domain names are conducted according to general policies established by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers ("ICANN"). ICANN has delegated the registration and administration of particular TLDs (top-level domains) to accredited domain name registrars under general ICANN policies, as interpreted by each domain name registrar. Accordingly, there may be significant differences in the administration of domain names for particular TLDs by different registrars.

When purchasing Domain Name Services for Your Project, You are required to enter into a registration agreement with Boxmode’s then-current domain name registrar. The registration agreement and associated terms for Boxmode’s current registrar (the registrar may occasionally change) can be found here (Domain Names Terms). You should carefully review each particular registration agreement related to Domain Name Services. You are solely responsible for compliance with such registration agreement and the continued use of Your Project, and the Domain Name Services shall constitute Your binding acceptance of such registration agreement.

Boxmode accepts no responsibility for the refusal of a domain name registrar to register a particular domain name. You irrevocably waive any rights of any kind whatsoever against Boxmode arising from such refusal. If you fail to timely pay Boxmode for the applicable Domain Name Services, You may permanently lose your domain name. If you choose to end your Domain Name Services or otherwise terminate your Network, You are solely responsible for all future matters relating to the applicable domain, including renewal. Neither Boxmode nor our applicable registrar accepts liability for any failure, for any reason whatsoever, to renew a domain name on a timely basis. ICANN policies require cancellation of domain names in certain circumstances, including fraud, provision of false registration details, interference with the rights of third parties, and other grounds. You are not entitled to a refund of registration fees on any such cancellation, and neither Boxmode nor our applicable registrar accepts liability for any such cancellation. It is your sole responsibility to review and adhere to the terms and conditions of the registration agreement for each domain name, including any terms and conditions which may lead to the cancellation of domain names.

According to ICANN regulations, You as a registrant have 15 days to verify domain registration through the link sent in the verification email. If the email address is not verified within 15 days, You will lose access to the domain and will no longer be able to use it. If You don’t verify the email address within this period for any reason, You may contact us at support@boxmode.com, and we will request the registrar to resend the verification email to You. In case You need to change the WHOIS email address (the email associated with your Boxmode account is used by default), You may email us at support@boxmode.com for further instructions.

In case You want to transfer your domain name to another registrar, please get in touch with us at support@boxmode.com.
