Renewal of Keyword Registrations.

Registrant's Keyword registration will automatically renew at the then-current price and under the then-current Service Agreement. Registrant will be notified of Registrant's Keyword registrations that are approaching autorenewal at least thirty (30) days prior to such autorenewal. If Registrant does not send a reply to the e-mail Tuonome.it has sent out with explicit instructions not to renew the keyword at least one day prior to the expiry date, the autorenewal will take place and Registrant will be billed. If attempts to bill Registrant fail (e.g., if the credit card on file for Registrant has expired), Registrant is not guaranteed renewal. It is Registrant's obligation to keep its billing information accurate to ensure renewal of Keyword registrations

Keyword Modifications.

Registrant may not modify the text of his/her Keyword or the associated Country Code once it has been registered. Registrant may update, and is required to update, its account information as it changes.

Keyword Editorial Quality and Complaints.

Registrant understands and agrees that the Keyword service is designed for the benefit of Internet users generally by providing them with a positive navigation experience. Accordingly, Registrant understands and agrees that RealNames performs editorial review of Keywords to assure that they benefit Internet users. Registrant understands and agrees that if a third party complains about Registrant's Keyword, Registrant is not guaranteed any opportunity to respond to such complaint before RealNames performs its editorial review and decides whether or not to modify or revoke the Keyword at issue.

Disputes Brought By Third Parties.

Registrant is bound by the Keyword Dispute Resolution Policy. RealNames may modify this Policy during the term of Registrant's registration and Registrant will be bound to the version of the policy in place at the time of the dispute. Registrant agrees to provide Tuonome.it with updated contact information during the term of this Agreement for purposes of facilitating dispute resolution, and understands that failure to do so is a breach of the registration agreement. For purposes of resolving disputes brought by third parties concerning or arising from Registrant's use of a registered Keyword, Registrant agrees to submit to subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction, and venue of (a) the courts of Registrant's domicile, (b) the courts residing in the jurisdictions corresponding to the address(es) provided by Registrant during the registration process, and (c) the courts residing in the jurisdiction corresponding to the location of Tuonome.it 's headquarters, currently at Via Provinciale Lucchese 151 – 51010 Uzzano (PT) - Italy.
