Last Updated September 20, 2024

Amazon Registrar Resources

If the Registrar of your domain name is Amazon Registrar, Inc., (“Amazon Registrar”) then in addition to the rights and responsibilities set forth in the Amazon Route 53 Domain Name Registration Agreement (“the Registration Agreement”), the following policies, guides, and other resources apply to your use of that domain name:

Amazon Registrar Acceptable Use Policy

This Acceptable Use Policy (this “Policy”) describes prohibited uses of the services offered by Amazon Registrar, Inc. and its affiliates (the “Services”). Your use of the Services is also governed by the AWS Acceptable Use Policy available here. The examples described in this Policy are not exhaustive. We may modify this Policy at any time by posting a revised version on this website. By using the Services, you agree to the latest version of this Policy. If we determine in our sole discretion that you have violated the Policy or authorized or helped others to do so, we may suspend or terminate your use of the Services.

You will not use the Services for any activity contrary to applicable law or legal requirements, including any conduct that violates your contractual obligations; ICANN rules, policies, or regulations; laws, regulations, or other applicable requirements of local, state, national governments; or international laws or treaties.

You will not use the Services for any harmful or malicious activities, including the distribution of malware, operation of botnets, phishing, piracy, trademark or copyright infringement, fraudulent or deceptive practices, or counterfeiting.

Amazon Registrar Change of Registrant Agreement

This Amazon Registrar Change of Registrant Agreement (the “Change Agreement”) contains additional terms that govern a request for the change of the registrant name, organization, or email address of a Registered Name (“Change of Registrant”) and is an agreement between Amazon Registrar, Inc. (“Amazon Registrar,” “we,” “us, and “our”) and you or the entity you represent (“you”), whether you are registrant before the change (“Prior Registrant”) or after the change (the “New Registrant”). If you are entering into this Change Agreement for an entity, such as the company you work for, you represent to us that you have legal authority to bind that entity.

You agree that your use of Amazon Registrar’s Domain Name Registration Services is subject both to the terms of this Change Agreement, and the terms governing your use of Domain Name Registration Services, including the AWS Customer Agreement (the “Customer Agreement”) and Amazon Route 53 Domain Name Registration Agreement (the “Registration Agreement”) as well as any policies promulgated by ICANN either now or in the future. You acknowledge and agree that Amazon Registrar may modify this Agreement in order to comply with its agreement with ICANN as well as any other terms set forth by ICANN or the applicable registry.

  1. Change of Registrant Process. When the Prior Registrant initiates a Change of Registrant request, Amazon Registrar will endeavor to send a confirmation email to: (A) the Prior Registrant or the designated agent of the Prior Registrant; and (B) the New Registrant or the designated agent of the New Registrant. Both the Prior Registrant (or their designated agent) and the New Registrant (or their designated agent) must confirm acceptance of the Change of Registrant which includes acceptance of this Registration Agreement within three (3) days of receipt of the confirmation email.

  2. Failure to confirm acceptance within the three (3) day period will result in the expiration of the Change of Registrant request. If the Change of Registrant request expires, you may initiate a new request.

  3. New Registrant acknowledges that New Registrant has reviewed and understands the terms, conditions, representations and warranties of the Customer Agreement and Registration Agreement.

  4. By requesting a change of registrant, Prior Registrant acknowledges that the New Registrant is now the Registered Name Holder of the Registered Name.

  5. By initiating a Change of Registrant, Prior Registrant warrants that the New Registrant has expressly agreed to the terms of the Change Agreement, the Customer Agreement, and the Registration Agreement, and Prior Registrant expressly authorizes Amazon Registrar to take all steps necessary to register the Registered Name to the New Registrant, including disassociating the Registered Name from the host servers designated by Prior Registrant without further notice.

  6. By requesting a Change of Registrant, Prior Registrant hereby relinquishes Prior Registrant’s registration of the Registered Name and discharges Amazon Registrar and its affiliates from all obligations under the Registration Agreement.

  7. By entering into this Change Agreement you expressly opt out of the sixty (60) day inter-registrar lock described in ICANN’s Transfer Policy. After updating your Registrant Data, your Registered Name will remain freely transferrable and you will be able to update your Registration Data at any time. If at any time you would like to opt in to the sixty (60) day lock, you can do so by opening a customer service support ticket. Liability and Release. You will release, indemnify and hold Amazon Registrar and its affiliates harmless for any claims, losses, or issues that arise in connection with or as a result of the Change of Registrant request. Amazon Registrar shall have no liability for Prior Registrant’s authority or ability to transfer the Registered Name to the New Registrant, failure of the Change of Registrant transaction to be completed, or the New Registrant’s entitlement to the registration of the Registered Name. Prior Registrant is not entitled to a refund of any fees you may have paid to Amazon Registrar.

Privacy Service Agreement

When you register or transfer in a Registered Name to Amazon Registrar, you will have the option to enable or disable the services described in this agreement (the “Privacy Service”). By choosing to enable the Privacy Service, you consent to the provisions of this agreement (the “Privacy Service Agreement” or “this Agreement”) between Whois Privacy Service LLC (“we,” “us, and “our”) and you or the entity you represent (“you”). This Privacy Service Agreement may be amended by us at any time for any reason, including changes required by ICANN or domain name registry. Your continued use of the Privacy Service following any amendment evidences your consent to the amendment. If at any time you wish to withdraw that consent, you may do so by disabling the Privacy Service for any Registered Name.

1. The Privacy Service. If you use the Privacy Service for a Registered Name, you request that we perform the following functions and expressly authorize us to take the following actions on your behalf:

1.1 Provide Alternate Contact Information. We will display the following alternate name and contact information in the public WHOIS database for each applicable Registered Name: Whois Privacy Service, P.O. Box 81226, Seattle, WA, 98108-1226, 1-206-577-1368.

1.2 Availability of Privacy Service. Certain gTLDs and ccTLDs do not allow registrants to use privacy services. Privacy Service will not be offered for these TLDs. You will review the specific rules governing privacy and proxy service for the gTLD or ccTLD for your Registered Name available here.

1.3 Communication Processing. In order to fulfill our obligations to you under the Privacy Service, we will review and process communication directed to the alternate name and contact information displayed in the public WHOIS database for each applicable Registered Name as follows:

  • Email Messages. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to relay any email received by the Privacy Service for your Registered Name to the email address provided by you. However, we may use SPAM filters and other mechanism to identify, in our sole discretion, unsolicited bulk email and decline to forward such messages. We are not obligated to contact you via alternate means in the event an email is returned as undeliverable. In the event of a persistent delivery failure, you may be considered in breach of your obligations to keep current and accurate contact information in your account profile, which may lead to termination of the Privacy Service which will result in the publication of your contact information in the public WHOIS record. The Privacy Service will not prevent all unsolicited communications or other unwanted contacts by third parties. The Privacy Service is not a replacement for adequate website security, which remains solely your responsibility.

  • Postal or Courier Messages. We may relay physical communications received via post or courier at our sole discretion and at your expense. All expenses for relaying physical communications will be charged to your account.

  • Fax Messages. There is no fax number associated with the alternate contact data we provide. Accordingly, fax messages will not be relayed by the service.

  • Telephone Messages. The Privacy Service is not an answering service and the alternate phone number listed in the Whois database will not accept messages. All callers will be directed to contact the registrant via email.

You hereby waive and release us and our affiliates from any claims arising from your failure to receive any type of communication directed to the alternate name and contact information displayed in the public WHOIS database for each applicable Registered Name, but not relayed to you by us.

2. Your Responsibilities

2.1 You retain complete ownership in the Registered Name. Your use of the Privacy Service does not give us any ownership interest in the Registered Name or any editorial control over the website content you associate with the Registered Name other than our right to disable the Privacy Service as noted in this Agreement.

2.2 Your use of the Privacy Service does not change your responsibilities under ICANN requirements, Specifications, and consensus policies as well as any applicable laws, regulations, or requests from governmental, administrative, or judicial bodies(including subpoenas or court orders). You are wholly responsible for ensuring your compliance with all such applicable laws and regulations. This includes, without limitation, the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) 2016/679.

2.3 Using the Privacy Service does not change any requirement that you provide accurate and reliable Registration Data and that you must correct and update that Registration Data within three days of any change during the term of the Registered Name registration. You will respond within three days to any inquiries made by us to determine the validity of Registration Data or other account information provided by you and you will promptly respond to messages we send you concerning your Registered Name.

2.4 Account Security. You are entirely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account access information, and you are responsible for all activity in your account whether initiated by you or not. You will notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other security breach. We will not be liable for any loss that you may incur as a result of someone else using your account, either with or without your knowledge. You could also be held liable for losses incurred by us or another party due to someone else using your account.

3. Fees and Payment

We offer the Privacy Service at no additional charge separate from fees you pay for Domain Name Registration Services. However, you will make all payments for the Privacy Service actual costs and any administrative or processing fees in connection with us forwarding physical mail and fax messages to you. You must maintain valid payment information in connection with your use of the Privacy Service. If you fail to keep a valid payment mechanism on file with us, we will not forward physical mail and fax messages to you and we may choose to terminate your use of the Privacy Service.

4. Support Services
Support services for customers using Privacy Service are available here. Customers may open a support case or check the status of a recently opened support case.

5. Indemnification

5.1 If a dispute arises as a result of your use of the Privacy Service, you will indemnify, defend and hold harmless us, our affiliates, the domain name registry and its affiliates, and each of the respective directors, officers, employees, and agents, of those companies (the “Indemnified Parties”). If we are notified that a complaint has been filed with ICANN or a governmental, administrative, or judicial body regarding a Registered Name registered by you using the Privacy Service, we, in our sole discretion, may take whatever action we deem necessary regarding further modification, assignment or control of the Registered Name in order to comply with the actions or requirements of ICANN or the governmental, administrative, or judicial body, or until such time as the dispute is settled, including relaying your Registration Data to third parties or revealing your contact information by terminating the Privacy Service (with or without notice to you). In this event, you will waive any claims against, and release and hold harmless, the Indemnified Parties for any action taken by us regarding the relay or publication of your Registration Data. If we or our affiliates are obligated to respond to a third party subpoena or other compulsory legal order or process described above, you will reimburse us for reasonable attorneys’ fees, as well as our employees’ and contractors’ time and materials spent responding to the third party subpoena or other compulsory legal order or process at our then-current hourly rates.

5.2 Process. We will notify you of any claim subject to Section 5.1, but our failure to notify you will only affect your obligations under Section 5.1 to the extent that our failure prejudices your ability to defend the claim. You may: (a) use counsel of your own choosing (subject to our written consent) to defend against any claim; and (b) settle the claim as you deem appropriate, provided that you obtain our prior written consent before entering into any settlement. We may also assume control of the defense and settlement of the claim at any time.

6. Disclaimers

WE AND OUR AFFILIATES AND LICENSORS MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY OR OTHERWISE REGARDING THE PRIVACY SERVICE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, IN ANY CASE, OUR AND OUR AFFILIATES’ AND LICENSORS’ AGGREGATE LIABILITY UNDER THIS PRIVACY SERVICE AGREEMENT WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAY US UNDER THIS PRIVACY SERVICE AGREEMENT FOR THE SERVICE THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM DURING THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

8. Termination of the Privacy Service and Disclosure of Your Information

8.1 We may not offer the Privacy Service for particular TLDs due to domain name registry requirements or other reasons.
