CERTIFICATE SERVICES AGREEMENT

Last Revised: 2020/09/18

PLEASE READ THIS AGREEMENT CAREFULLY, AS IT CONTAINS IMPORTANT INFORMATION REGARDING YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS AND REMEDIES

  1. OVERVIEW

    This Certificate Services Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into by and between GoDaddy.com, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, ("GoDaddy"), and you, and is made effective as of the date of electronic acceptance. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions of your use of the various SSL and code signing certificate services (“Services”) that we offer. Your electronic acceptance of this Agreement signifies that you have read, understand, acknowledge and agree to be bound by this Agreement, which incorporates by reference all of (i) our Universal Terms of Service Agreement, (ii) all relevant agreements, statements, practices and forms set forth in our Certificate Services Repository, and (ii) any plan limits, product disclaimers or other restrictions presented to you on the web security or certificates landing page of the GoDaddy website (this “Site”).

    The terms “we”, “us” or “our” shall refer to GoDaddy. The terms “you”, “your”, “User” or “customer” shall refer to any individual or entity who accepts this Agreement and/or uses the Services. Unless otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to confer any third-party rights or benefits.

    You acknowledge and agree that (i) GoDaddy, in its sole and absolute discretion, may change or modify this Agreement, and any policies or agreements which are incorporated herein, at any time, and such changes or modifications shall be effective immediately upon posting to this Site, and (ii) your use of this Site or the Services found at this Site after such changes or modifications have been made (as indicated by the “Last Revised” date at the top of this page) shall constitute your acceptance of this Agreement as last revised. If you do not agree to be bound by this Agreement as last revised, do not use (or continue to use) this Site or the Services found at this Site. In addition, GoDaddy may occasionally notify you of changes or modifications to this Agreement by email. It is therefore very important that you keep your shopper account (“Shopper Account”) information, including your email address, current. GoDaddy assumes no liability or responsibility for your failure to receive an email notification if such failure results from an inaccurate or out-of-date email address.

  2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

    We offer various “web security” services, including SSL and code signing certificates services. Each of these are further described below and are governed by individual agreements with a specific set of terms and conditions referenced and incorporated herein, as well as various practice and policy statements that govern the services generally. All Services are governed by our Certification Policy and Certification Practice Statement. To the extent applicable, Services may also be subject to terms and conditions of our SSL Certificate Service Relying Party Agreement.

    SSL Certificates. Any SSL certificate you purchase from us or our affiliates is subject to and is intended for its specific use as described in the SSL Certificate Service Subscriber Agreement, or, if an extended validation certificate, by the terms the Extended Validation Certificate Service Subscriber Agreement. For Premium (EV) certificates, there is an extensive vetting process that starts with an in-depth application that will require you to provide details about your business, such as registration number, incorporation or registration agent and any relevant jurisdiction information.
