This GoDaddy Fast Transfer agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between GoDaddy.com, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company ("GoDaddy") and you, and is made effective as of the date of electronic acceptance.  This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of GoDaddy’s Fast Transfer service (“Fast Transfer Service” or the “Service”).

Your electronic acceptance of this Agreement signifies that you have read, understand, acknowledge and agree to be bound by this Agreement, along with GoDaddy’s Universal Terms of Service, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The terms “we”, “us” or “our” shall refer to GoDaddy. The terms “you”, “your”, “User” or “customer” shall refer to any individual or entity who accepts this Agreement.  Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.

GoDaddy, in its sole and absolute discretion, may change or modify this Agreement, and any policies or agreements which are incorporated herein, at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting to the GoDaddy website (this “Site”).  You acknowledge and agree that (i) GoDaddy may notify you of such changes or modifications by posting them to this Site and (ii) your use of this Site or the Service after such changes or modifications have been made (as indicated by the “Last Revised” date at the top of this page) shall constitute your acceptance of this Agreement as last revised.  If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement as last revised, do not use (or continue to use) this Site or the Service.  In addition, GoDaddy may occasionally notify you of changes or modifications to this Agreement by email.  It is therefore very important that you keep your account (“Account”) information, including your email address, current.  GoDaddy assumes no liability or responsibility for your failure to receive an email notification if such failure results from an inaccurate or out-of-date email address.

GoDaddy is partnering with Afternic® to provide GoDaddy customers with a means to sell their domain name(s) to interested buyers through a network of selected registrars.  If you choose to list your domain name for sale through the Fast Transfer Service and enter into this Agreement, you expressly acknowledge, understand and agree that: (i) GoDaddy shall not have any liability or obligations to you regarding the listing and sale of your domain name through the Fast Transfer Service or the transfer of the domain name from you to the buyer; (ii) GoDaddy has no control over buyers or Afternic’s network of selected registrars and makes no representations as to the reliability or capability of the listing service, or the qualifications of any potential buyer or the ability of any buyer to pay for a domain name; and (iii) GoDaddy does not collect, retain or have access to any credit card information of buyers utilizing the Fast Transfer Service, nor do we process the payment of funds between you and a buyer and therefore cannot be held liable for any non-payment by the buyer or any unauthorized disclosure of any personal or credit card information concerning the buyer.  The transfer of funds between Afternic buyers and sellers are subject to the Afternic Membership Agreement and Terms of Service located at https://www.afternic.com/legal, which is incorporated herein by reference.

When you register your domain name with GoDaddy and list your domain for sale as part of the Fast Transfer Service, you expressly acknowledge and agree that we may instantly transfer any domain name successfully sold in the Fast Transfer Service away from your GoDaddy account into the account of the successful buyer of the domain name.  You acknowledge and agree to allow GoDaddy to disable any transfer lock feature associated with a domain name enrolled in the Fast Transfer Service, including but not limited to the disabling of our domain name transfer validation service.

You agree to release, indemnify, defend and hold harmless GoDaddy and any of its contractors, agents, employees, officers, directors, shareholders, affiliates and assigns from all liabilities, claims, damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses, relating to or arising out of your use of the Fast Transfer Service, including, but not limited to, the instant transfer of the domain name from your GoDaddy account to the account of the buyer.

GoDaddy does not and cannot guarantee the sale or purchase of any domain name through the Fast Transfer Service. Transfer of a domain name to a buyer is not instantaneous at the time of sale and may take several days to occur.

You may remove a domain name from the Fast Transfer Service at any time.  In the event that you remove a domain from the Service, please be aware that removal of the domain name from the Afternic network is not instantaneous, and may take several days to occur.  GoDaddy will complete the instant transfer process for any domain name enrolled in the Fast Transfer Service and sold through the Afternic network during this timeframe.

You acknowledge and agree that GoDaddy may remove your domain name from the Fast Transfer Service at any time for any reason, without prior notification, including, but not limited to: non-payment of fees, expiration of domain name, fraud, restrictions on transfer, the filing of a trademark or ownership dispute concerning the domain name, or in the event of a transfer of the domain name to another registrar.

When you activate Fast Transfer, you agree to allow us to cancel your Domain Ownership Protection Service upon fulfillment of the purchase of your domain. The Domain Ownership Protection Service will continue to apply to your domain name while listed for sale and will only be canceled upon the fulfillment of the sale. By activating Fast Transfer you agree to allow the transfer of your domain name resulting from the sale of said domain name on any of GoDaddy’s platforms, including premium listings, regardless of when you purchased the Fast Transfer Service.

FOR THE PURPOSE OF FACILITATING THE FAST TRANSFER PROCESS, AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH ICANN'S CHANGE OF REGISTRANT POLICY, YOU AGREE TO APPOINT GoDaddy AS YOUR DESIGNATED AGENT FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF EXPLICITLY CONSENTING TO MATERIAL CHANGES OF REGISTRATION CONTACT INFORMATION ON YOUR BEHALF.
