Hong Kong Domain Name Registration Company Limited
Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy
[Effective 27 June 2005]

1. Purpose

This Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the "Dispute Resolution Policy") has been adopted by the Hong Kong Domain Name Registration Company Limited ("HKDNR") and is incorporated by reference into your Domain Name Registration Agreement and/or the Domain Name Registration Agreement for Trial Chinese Domain Name (i.e. domain names with the extension ".hk") between HKDNR and you ("Registration Agreement"). This Dispute Resolution Policy sets forth the terms and conditions in connection with a dispute between you and any party other than the HKDNR in regard to the registration and use of a .hk Internet Domain Name (other than a .idv.hk Domain Name) registered with us by you ("Domain Name"). Disputes in relation to .idv.hk domain names are governed by the HKDNR Dispute Resolution Policy Individual Domain Names. No complaint can be filed against the registration of a Trial Chinese Domain Name within the month prior to the end of the Technical Trial Period or any extension of the Technical Trial Period since all Trial Chinese Domain Names will be cancelled at the end of the Technical Trial Period or any extension of the Technical Trial Period in any event.

Proceedings under Paragraph 4 of this Dispute Resolution Policy will be conducted according to the HKDNR Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy Rules of Procedure (the "Rules of Procedure"), see Appendix A and the selected Arbitration Dispute Resolution Service Provider's Supplemental Rules ("the Supplemental Rules").

2. Your Representations

to the best of your knowledge and belief, the Domain Name you are applying for will not infringe or otherwise violate the legal rights of any third party;
