Eligibility and Program
Requirements
You are an Eligible Referrer
if you are both a registered Dynadot account holder and meet all of the
following requirements: (A) you
must have a Dynadot account that is in Qualified Standing; and, (B) you are of
legal age to enter into agreements, or you are at least thirteen (13) years of
age and have your parents' permission to submit to the terms and conditions of
this Program. In order for your
account to be deemed to be in Qualified Standing in accordance with the
requirements of this Program, (a) your Dynadot account must have been in
existence for at least 10 days at the time of your participation in this Program;
(b) you must not have a "hold" or "disabled" status on your
Dynadot account or on any service that you purchased from Dynadot; (c) your
Dynadot account must not be suspended, deactivated, disabled, or past due
during the Program Period; and, (d) you must have completed at least one (1)
Qualifying Purchase prior to your participation in the Program.
If you are not and have never
been a registered Dynadot account holder, then you are eligible to participate
in this Program as an Eligible Referred Friend, subject to the requirement
that: you are of legal age to enter into agreements, or you are at least
thirteen (13) years of age and have your parents' permission to submit to the
terms and conditions of this Program.
To qualify as an Eligible Referred Friend under this Program, you must
satisfy the following requirements:
(A) you sign up for a Dynadot account at http://www.dynadot.com
as a result of the Eligible Referrer's referral; and, (B) you complete at least
one (1) Qualifying Purchase as a result of the Eligible Referrer's referral,
and using the Eligible Referrer's Referral Code.
A "Qualifying
Purchase" means a purchase of at least $2.99 in U.S. dollars by a Dynadot
account holder for Dynadot services through the legitimate completion of a
transaction on the Dynadot website, and remittance of full payment
thereof. As of August 25, 2011, prepay order items
will not be considered a part of the "Qualifying Purchase" and will not be
counted towards the $2.99 minimum purchase amount.
Completion of a Qualifying Purchase requires that Dynadot receive payment in full, and that there be
no chargeback of payment, rejection of payment, or return of services for a period of
one (1) calendar year following the initial transaction date.
Purchases of Dynadot services through third party vendors are ineligible for this Program.
Participation in the
Program
To participate in the
Program, Eligible Referrers must provide their Referral Code to their Eligible
Referred Friends. Referral Codes
are unique series of numbers and letters, which are assigned to your account by
Dynadot. Subject to the
requirements set forth herein, the Eligible Referrer will receive ten percent
(10%) back in the form of account credit ("Referral Reward") of their
Eligible Referred Friend's first (1st) completed Qualifying Purchase. In order for an Eligible Referrer to
qualify for a Referral Reward, an Eligible Referred Friend must provide the
Eligible Referrer's Referral Code during the order checkout process on the
Friend's first completed Qualifying Purchase.
Eligible Referred Friends do
NOT qualify to receive any credit or Referral Reward under this Program. However, after completing at least one
Qualifying Purchase and subject to meeting any other eligibility requirements
as stated herein, the Eligible Referred Friend may qualify to participate in
this Program as an Eligible Referrer.
An Eligible Referrer will not
receive any credit or Referral Reward if his or her referrals through the
Program are rejected or are not received for any reason, or if he or she fails
to comply with any of the obligations of the Program or these Terms and
Conditions. Upon the Eligible
Referrer's qualification for a Referral Reward, only one (1) Referral Reward
will be given to an Eligible Referrer per Eligible Referred Friend, regardless
of how many Dynadot accounts or customer ID's the Eligible Referrer may have. Referral Rewards are only available for
referrals resulting in new Dynadot accounts by Eligible Referred Friends who
complete a Qualifying Purchase.
Only the Eligible Referred Friend's first completed Qualifying Purchase
through the Refer-A-Friend email or Referral Code will be eligible for credits
and participation in the Program.
Referral Rewards
Referral Rewards will be in
the form of account credit, and may be used towards the purchase of services
from Dynadot at http://www.dynadot.com. Referral Rewards are calculated based
on the amount of the Eligible Referred Friend's Qualifying Purchase.
Referral Rewards will be
credited to your Dynadot account within approximately ninety (90) days of the
completion of a Qualified Purchase by your Eligible Referred Friend, subject to
satisfaction of these terms and conditions and delays due to technical
difficulties or other unforeseen circumstances.
Referral Rewards may be
revoked, reversed, adjusted, or otherwise modified, at Dynadot's sole
discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of this Program.
Referral Rewards may not be
sold, transferred, assigned, redeemed for cash, or combined with any other
offer, discount, or promotion.
Referral Rewards are not transferable upon death, as part of a domestic
relations matter, or otherwise by operation of law. Referral Rewards may not be applied retroactively to prior
purchases. The awarding and use of
Referral Rewards are subject to the Dynadot Service Agreement, and any other
policies or terms of use set forth by Dynadot. The use of Referral Rewards is also subject to current
prices, limitations, and terms as set forth on the Dynadot website at http://www.dynadot.com.
Upon cancellation of service
or closure of your Dynadot account for any reason, any unused Referral Rewards
will automatically expire and may not be transferred, assigned, or redeemed for
cash. AS WITH ALL ACCOUNT CREDIT
WITH DYNADOT, REFERRAL REWARD CREDITS ARE NON-REFUNDABLE, NON-RETURNABLE, AND
MAY NOT BE REDEEMED FOR CASH.
Additional Terms and
Conditions
Dynadot reserves the right to
modify, suspend or terminate the Program in its entirety or in part at any time

rejections or failures, or ineligibility of a participant, or in the event

Terms and Conditions or the Dynadot Service Agreement (and any policies
incorporated therein).
If in Dynadot's opinion,
there is any suspect or actual evidence of electronic or non-electronic tampering
with any portion of the Program or the Referral Rewards, or if a computer

security, fairness, or proper conduct of the Program, Dynadot reserves the
right at its sole discretion to disqualify or discontinue the participation
privileges of any individual involved in any such harmful or illegal
activities, and to modify or suspend the Program, or to terminate the
Program. Discontinued
participation privileges may result in the loss of all accumulated rewards
benefits. Any attempt by an
entrant or any other individual to deliberately damage any website or undermine
the legitimate operation of the Program is a violation of criminal and civil
laws and should such an attempt be made, Dynadot reserves the right to seek
damages and other remedies from any such person to the fullest extent permitted
by law. Any attempts by an
individual to access any website associated with this Program via a bot script
or other brute force attack or any other unauthorized means will result in the
IP address becoming ineligible, in addition to any other remedies available in
law or in equity. Use of
automated, programmed, falsified or the like entry devices or programs is
prohibited and all such entries are void.
