Domain Registration Terms

  • These Domain Registration Terms are entered into between you and Google Cloud Brasil Computação e Serviços de Dados Ltda., a Brazilian company organized in the state of São Paulo, with offices at Av. Brigadeiro Faria Lima, 3729, 4 and 5 floors, Itaim Bibi, São Paulo - SP, an authorized reseller of services provided by Google LLC (“Google”) when you accept below (the "Agreement") and govern your purchase of the domain registration service ("Domain Service") through Google’s interface. By using this Domain Service, you are registering domain name(s) through third party domain name registrars who have a contractual relationship with Google ("Registrar Partners"). Google's role in such registration is principally in suggesting a Registrar Partner to you, helping you register your domain name(s) with such Registrar Partner and aiding in the setup of applicable Google services through such Registrar Partner. Google's Registrar Partners may change from time to time at Google's sole discretion. You must agree to the Registrar Partner's Terms and Conditions in order to register a domain name with that Registrar Partner. You understand that you have a separate contractual agreement with the Registrar Partner and that you are responsible for all liability, obligations, and fees as specified in that agreement. Any issues regarding availability, purchase, renewal, maintenance or other support relating to your domain name registration should be addressed to such Registrar Partner and not Google. The Domain Service is subject to Google’s Privacy Policy at https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/.

    • 1. Registration. You understand that you are the Registrant for your domain name(s) as defined by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names ("ICANN"). You agree to comply with the relevant ICANN regulations and policies concerning your domain name(s), including ICANN's Uniform Dispute Resolution Process. You agree to submit and maintain your registration information, including contact information for the registration and other contacts, as complete and accurate at all times. You also agree and understand that though you may elect to keep your information out of the WHOIS database, if regulations regarding such election change, your Registrar Partner or Google may disclose your domain information as it reasonably believes necessary. To the extent that you name others to act on your behalf in any capacity, you agree that you are liable for any obligations or liability that your agents incur relating to your domain name(s) and you must have your agents accept the terms of this Agreement and the Registrar Partner's Terms and Conditions. Google reserves the right to refuse to register or cancel the registration of any domain name(s) that violate the Google Workspace Acceptable Use Policy available at https://workspace.google.com/terms/use_policy.html or such other URL as Google may provide.

    • 2. Modifications. Google may make commercially reasonable changes to this Agreement from time to time. If Google makes a material change to this Agreement, Google will inform Customer (notice may be by email).

    • 3. Billing and Payment. When you accept you will be committed to purchasing the Domain Service from Google for an annual term. You may pay for the Domain Service using a credit card, debit card or as otherwise provided on the order page. Google will register your domain name(s) after it confirms the validity of your payment method, but will not bill you until the end of the month in which you purchase the domain name(s). All payments due are in Brazilian Reais unless otherwise indicated on the order page. During signup or through the Domain Service, you may choose to automatically renew your domain name(s). If you choose this option, at the end of the annual term, the Domain Service will automatically renew for additional annual terms and Google will bill you for the then current fee for renewal when such payment is due. All payments are final and Google will not issue any refund of fees.

    • 4. Domain Records. You authorize Google to correspond with your Registrar Partner(s) on your behalf and to make changes to your records with such Registrar Partner(s) in order to facilitate the functioning of the Domain Service. You authorize Google to, at its option, become the technical, billing or other contact for domains registered through the Domain Service.

    • 5. Transfer. You understand that Google may change its Registrar Partners or begin providing such domain name registration services itself at any time and at its sole discretion. In connection with such a change, Google may change your Registrar Partner. You authorize Google to act as the agent of the Registrant for the limited purpose of requesting such a change and completing any necessary forms or agreements. You also authorize Google to become and reset the administrative contact for the limited purpose of transferring your domain name(s) and completing any necessary forms or agreements.

    • 6. Termination. Google may terminate the Domain Service for any reason at the end of the then current term by providing you at least thirty days notice, provided that Google may terminate the Domain Service immediately if Google reasonably determines that (i) your domain name(s) or activities on the domain violate the Google Workspace Acceptable Use Policy, and (ii) it is commercially impractical to continue providing the Domain Service in light of applicable laws.

    • 7. Limitation of Liability.

    • a. Limitation on Indirect Liability. Neither party will be liable under this Agreement for lost revenues or indirect, special, incidental, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, even if the party knew or should have known that such damages were possible and even if direct damages do not satisfy a remedy.

    • b. Limitation on Amount of Liability. Neither party may be held liable under this Agreement for more than the fees paid to Google during the twelve months prior to the event giving rise to liability.

    • 8. Governing Law; Arbitration.

      • (a) This agreement will be governed by Brazilian law.

      • (c) The arbitral tribunal will be composed of three arbitrators to be appointed in accordance with the Rules. The arbitration will be conducted in Portuguese in São Paulo, Brazil, the place where the arbitral award will be rendered.

      • (e) Subject to the confidentiality requirements in subsection (g), either party may petition the courts of the city of São Paulo or any competent court to issue any order necessary to protect that party's rights or property; this petition will not be considered a violation or waiver of this governing law and arbitration section and will not affect the arbitrator’s powers, including the power to review the judicial decision.

      • (f) The arbitral award will be final and binding on the parties and its execution may be presented in any competent court, including any court with jurisdiction over either party or any of its property.

      • (g) Any arbitration proceeding conducted in accordance with this section will be considered confidential information, including (i) the existence of, (ii) any information disclosed during, and (iii) any oral communications or documents related to the arbitration proceedings. The parties may disclose the information described in this subsection (g) to a competent court as may be necessary to execute any award rendered by the arbitral tribunal or file any order under subsection (e). But the parties must request that those judicial proceedings be conducted in camera (in private).

      • (h) The arbitral award will determine the non-prevailing party’s obligation to reimburse the arbitrators’ fees, the arbitral tribunal’s appointed experts’ fees and expenses, and the arbitration center’s administrative expenses paid in advance by the other party.

      • (i) Each party will bear its own lawyers’ and experts’ fees and expenses, regardless of the arbitral tribunal’s final decision regarding the dispute.

    • 9. Force Majeure. Neither party will be liable for inadequate performance to the extent caused by a condition (for example, natural disaster, act of war or terrorism, riot, labor condition, governmental action, and Internet disturbance) that was beyond the party's reasonable control.
