2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE

ZiD.com offers the CA domain registration service based on the rules and procedures defined by the Canadian Internet Registration Authority (hereinafter referred to as "CIRA"), which are published on the Internet at www.cira.ca. The registrant and ZiD.com shall specifically be subject to Article 4 of this agreement as it is currently defined by CIRA. This article could be amended by CIRA pursuant to its own terms and conditions (see the "Elements of the Agreement Defined by CIRA" section).

ZiD.com reserves the right to refuse to process the Registrant's service application if ZiD.com believes that it violates this agreement or an applicable law.

The registrant understands that the role of ZiD.com is limited to submitting an application to CIRA and that ZiD.com cannot guarantee the registrant that the application for a specific domain name will be accepted.

The registrant acknowledges that it is responsible for providing and updating, to the best of its knowledge, all information required by ZiD.com as part of the ZiD.com service. This information will be used by ZiD.com to submit the application to CIRA.

The registrant acknowledges that the registrant is responsible for all costs and fees associated with the registration of your domain name including, but not limited to, all costs and fees for moving or transferring such domain name.

3. FEES

The registrant agrees to pay ZiD.com fees based on the rates defined in the "Pricing/Rates" section on our Web site. The registrant understands that part of these fees are payable by ZiD.com to CIRA. Payment of fees by the registrant does not mean that ZiD.com guarantees that the registrant's application will be accepted, since the domain registration application could be refused by CIRA. Fees paid by the registrant to ZiD.com are not refundable or transferable. Should the Registrant refuse or not accept the terms and conditions set forth by CIRA and it the time frame stipulated by CIRA'S Rules and Regulations, a service charge of $ 10.00 will placed on the registrar's credit card or charge to the registrants account.
