Hi Libby, that clause is intended to allow termination of the service where we want to deactivate a domain name providing questionable goods or services but cannot with one-hundred percent accuracy say that these are illegel, fraudulent or otherwise problematic. As we do not conduct checks of content without a complaint, there usually is other grounds for termination as well, but this gives us an easier "out". As the definition of commercial goes, we do not hold advertizements or blogs, forums, news sites, parking sites, etc. as commercial use, only the actual provision of goods and services, i.e. an online shop or a service portal, i.e. registered businesses. Hope this helps, Volker Am 05.03.2014 17:23, schrieb Libby Baney:
Volker, James, Graeme --
Thank you again for your presentations during yesterday's PPSAI WG meeting. As we consider accreditation standards for p/p service providers, it is very helpful to be reminded of the range of business models and practices in the p/p industry.
At the risk of opening a "can of worms" with the following question, I'd greatly appreciate if Volker could share further insight into the following (note, I did ask in the chat but it seems we ran out of time to address it):
Volker -- you noted that it is against your terms of service to use protected domains for commercial purposes. I can't help but wonder, what is your operating definition of "commercial" for purposes of enforcing this company policy?
To other p/p service providers -- do any of you have a similar policy, and if so how do you distinguish commercial vs. non-commercial use?
Thanks in advance for indulging my curiosity.
Libby
