This is increasingly important in the context of protecting against fraud and DNS abuse.</p> <p>This applies regardless whether you or not your domain name is registered directy with us or through a third party. <strong>This means it also applies if you use a 'registrar' to register your name..</strong></p> <p>We do not routinely ask for proof of ID for registration, or making changes to the register of domain names, if requested by standard electronic instruction, such as by logging into a self-management account, or through your registrar's interface.<br /> <br /> However if we suspect fraud or a risk of unauthorised access, we may ask for additional proof. We may also request to establish your authority in respect of a domain name, if you have lost access to an online account, or you are unable to request the required service from the relevant registrar.<br /> <br /> If you have a self-management account, you are normally able to prove your identity to us by logging in to your account. However if we suspect fraud or a risk of unauthorised access to your account, we may ask for additional proof.</p> <p>If you are not currently able to manage your domain name online (e.g. have lost access to your self-management account) we will verify your identity by other means such as by reference to internal records and/or responses to emails. Depending on circumstances we may ask for a signed letter and/or request copies of identity documents.<br /> <br /> We may be able to use other, faster, methods such as checking public company records or credit reference data. We might occasionally ask you for copies of documents, such as passport/national ID and a proof of address, but please do not send these unless we ask you to do so. If we are able to confirm your identity using a credit reference agency search, we will <em>not</em> require copies of your ID.</p> <p><strong>Important information (incorporated companies and other 'legal persons')</strong><br /> <br /> Where a company is incorporated, or registered, it is usually relatively straightforward for us to determine its identity, as it is fairly easy for us to consult publically-available company records in many jurisdictions, and/or credit reference agencies. In some circumstances, however, we may need to ask for copies of certain documents, such as a <em>Certificate of Incorporation</em>, annual return or certificate of good standing and/or ask for confirmation of identity of the company's officers or signatories/.</p> <p>On the register, Registrant and Authorised Contact entries have a <em>Name</em> field (mandatory) for the registrant or contact to which it relates , and an <em>Organisation</em> name field (optional). If the <em>Organisation</em> field has been filled in any record, that record identifies the person, company or organisation list in the '<em>Organisation</em>' field' and any duly authorised representative may act, subject to verification. This is because our legal agreement(s) is/are with the company, which, if it is incorporated, has its own legal existence separate from any 'natural persons' who may be associated with it from time to time.</p> <p> </p> <p> </p> </div></div></div> </div> <!-- /container --> <div class="prefoot"> <div class="container"> <div class="bottombar"> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="tridiv"> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="tridiv"> </div> </div> <div class="col-md-4"> <div class="tridiv"> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <script src="/packages/theme_casual/themes/casual/js/bootstrap.min.js"></script> <script> $(function(){ //JQUERY DROP DOWN MENU $(".cnav ul > li").hover(function(){ if($(this).has("ul")){ $(this).children("ul").addClass("nav-show"); } },function(){ if($(this).has("ul")){ $(this).children("ul").removeClass("nav-show"); } }); }) </script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/concrete/blocks/image/view.js?ccm_nocache=446b00e508faa61ad2b1b3bc588f4f99d3094485"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="/concrete/blocks/autonav/templates/responsive_header_navigation/view.js?ccm_nocache=446b00e508faa61ad2b1b3bc588f4f99d3094485"></script> </body> </html>
