DNS BE did write the following message today to their users, as they make a change in their terms & conditions. We will publish the whole text for our customers to read, in case they might have missed it.
Dear .be domain name holder,
DNS BE is the manager of the .be domain name zone. U are receiving this message because you are the holder of one or more .be domain names. If you would like to know more about DNS BE and its role, you are kindly invited to visit our website at www.dns.be.
DNS BE has prepared a new version (4.0) of the terms and conditions of domain name registrations under the .BE domain. The current version of the terms and conditions should normally have been presented for acceptation by your registration agent at the time of registration of your .be domain.
You can find the new version on our website:
http://www.dns.be/en/166161-NKqPXN-09a9719The new version of the terms and conditions contains a number of important changes:
- replacement of the terms “licence” and “licensee” by a more accurate terminology;
- reduction of the delay for execution of decisions within the framework of the alternative dispute resolution (15 days instead of 30 working days);
- introduction of a rule for the recovery of costs with regards to the alternative dispute resolution;
- introduction of the principle that cybersquatters will have to intervene indirectly for a part of the costs of the alternative dispute resolution.
The new version of the terms and conditions will enter in force on 15 March 2007 and will from that date apply to all registered .be domains and their respective holders.
With kind regards,
DNS BE Team
