Domain Name Deletion & Auto-Renewal Policy.
Registrar PDR ltd now offers auto-renew feature to all our registrants. With this feature, your orders renew automatically using the balance in your debit account or credit card details that you have chosen to save on our system. If at all there is not sufficient balance in your or your registration service providers account, we will send an email to you for manual renewal.
(1) In order to ensure that you do not experience an interruption or loss of services, all domain registration orders may be set to Auto-Renewal by default.
(2) In order to perform auto-renewal, you have to authorize the Parent to capture and store your Debit/Credit Card information when you are registering, renewing or transferring your domain name.
(3) Auto-renewal will be performed for 1 year registration extension.
(4) For renewing the domain name, you will be charged the Parent’s then current rates, which you acknowledge and agree, may be higher or lower than the rates for the original service period.
(5) You can disable Auto-Renewal feature at any time.
Domain Name Deletion
If we are unable to secure payment on or before the domain renewal date, your domain name will expire.
As early as one day after expiration, your domain name will be deactivated and will display a parking page indicating the domain name has expired, and other services you have associated with the domain name may no longer function.
You agree that we may place our contact information in the WHOIS output for any expired domain name, as the failure to renew results in the immediate cancellation of registration and loss of all rights to the domain name. Should you choose not to renew your domain name, you agree that we may, in our sole discretion, renew and transfer the domain name to a third party on your behalf as an Expired Domain Transfer (“ED Transfer”).
New customers through domain auction or brokerage partners and/or ED Transfers: If you are registering a domain name that was registered with, and not yet deleted by, the Company at the time of your purchase, you acknowledge and agree that the term of your registration will be for a period of one year from the original expiration date for the domain name immediately prior to your purchase, as the registration is the result of an ED Transfer (defined above).
You will not be compensated for the inability to use the domain from the time it was expired until the time you are able to use the domain in your account. NOTE: You may not transfer your domain name to another Registrar for sixty (60) days from the date of any previous transfer.
If the domain name has not been renewed by you or purchased by a third party, an expired domain name enters the registry redemption period (as defined by each registry) approximately 40 days following expiration. Certain TLDs enter the registry redemption period sooner than 40 days and those details are available here. We reserve the right to charge you a redemption fee (in additional to the renewal fee) in the event you are able to renew your domain name during this period. The fee charged for redemption varies by TLD and may be found here.
If the domain name completes the registry redemption period, the registry may hold the domain name for a period of five days before releasing it again for general registration.
