IMPORTANT: By accessing, browsing, or otherwise using the DropTimes service ("Service"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and all applicable laws and regulations. If you do not agree with any of these terms, you are prohibited from using or accessing this Service.
These Terms of Service constitute a legally binding agreement ("Agreement") between you ("User," "you," or "your") and DropTimes ("Company," "we," "us," or "our") governing your use of the Service. By accessing, using, or registering for the Service, you expressly acknowledge and agree to be bound by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and any additional terms and conditions that may apply to specific features of the Service.

DropTimes operates as an information service provider that aggregates, processes, and disseminates publicly available domain registration data and related information. The Service provides domain tracking capabilities, drop time estimates, and domain availability information for informational purposes only. We expressly disclaim any representation or warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any information provided through the Service.
CRITICAL DISCLAIMER: DropTimes functions solely as an information aggregator and dissemination platform. We do not register, transfer, or manage domain names on behalf of users. We do not guarantee the availability of any domain name at any specific time. Domain registration processes are subject to numerous external factors beyond our control, including but not limited to registrar policies, technical issues, network delays, and third-party actions.
IMPORTANT: Our domain backorder service operates under specific limitations that you must understand and accept before using this service.
We manage our own catch lists and utilize HostedChasing.com servers for domain catching. Our service operates with our own infrastructure and catch allocation, providing direct control over the catching process.
Even if our system successfully catches a domain, this does not guarantee that the domain will be awarded to you. The following scenarios may result in the domain being awarded to another party:
By using our backorder service, you acknowledge and accept that:
You are only charged if a domain is successfully caught AND awarded to you. If a domain is caught but not awarded due to technical issues, competition, a higher priority user/bidder also ordering the same domain, or any other reason, no charge will be made as you did not receive the domain.
ACKNOWLEDGMENT: By using our domain backorder service, you expressly acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to these limitations. You accept that while we manage our own catch lists and use HostedChasing.com servers, successful catches do not guarantee domain awards. You further acknowledge that you are only charged if a domain is awarded to you.
ABSOLUTE DISCLAIMER OF LIABILITY: DropTimes explicitly disclaims any responsibility, liability, or obligation whatsoever for:

We may terminate or suspend your account and access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if you breach the Terms.
