(b) Registered Charity: An unincorporated organization, association, or club registered under the Charities Act; and any subsequent amendment thereto.
- Is there a limit to the number of domain names that I can register?

- * The Domain Name must not be defamatory, libelous, slanderous, obscene, abusive, offensive, threatening and/or immoral.
* A Domain Name may be revoked if found to be in contravention of published policies and procedures.
* A Domain Name may be suspended or revoked if the BermudaNIC Registrar is directed by a court of competent jurisdiction.
* A Domain Name may be cancelled or redelegated at any stage where the Registrant does not comply with these requirements or fails to meet any liabilities in connection with the registration or use of the Domain Name.
- Do I need to have a dedicated server for my domain name?
- Yes. Domain name servers contain the information of which IP address belongs to which domain name. Each time a site is addressed on the internet, a name server must return the relevant IP address in order to enable the browser to establish a direct connection to the site.
101Domain requests at least TWO valid name server entries even at the registration of the domain. Please contact your ISP unless you have these entries.
- Will I need contacts located in Bermuda?
- Yes, you will need two. You will need an Administrative Contact as well as a Technical Contact. 101Domain can help and provide you with these contacts if necessary.
