Some more questions about the online TAG application form, on the trading details part of it, it says:
Trading Name
By default your account's trading name will be displayed. If you would like a different trading name displayed please enter it:
Use my account's existing trading name (MY USER NAME WAS HERE).
Use a different trading name:
And:
Trading URL
An optional link to a web site of your choice which may be displayed alongside your trading name:
Do not display a trading URL.
Display the following trading URL:
What do I put for trading name, use the name which my current Nominet account is under, or do I tick the use a different trading name box, and if I enter the new name, say i used Systreg for the name, would that name then be my TAG? Or do you choose a tag at some other time after they receive the application?
Then a few of pages later you have the Terms and conditions compliance stuff, nightmare:
You need to confirm how you comply with the requirements of our Domain Name Registrar Agreement. You can either give us a URL where we can find evidence of your compliance or, if publication is pending, you can give us full details of how you will meet the requirements.
Things I have to give details about all this stuff:
1. Terms and conditions awareness
Either by URL or description, show how you make your registrants aware of our Terms and Conditions of Domain Name Registration before the domain name is registered.
2. Charging awareness
Either by URL or description, show how you make your registrants aware of the charges associated with domain name registration, renewal and maintenance. You should also clearly state how you make your registrants aware of any changes to your charges.
3. Related services
Either by URL or description, give details of the related services you provide that are relevant to your customers, with information on how to access these services, any charges payable, and how long you will take to carry out a service. You should also clearly state how you make your customers aware of any changes to your charges.
4. Customer support
Either by URL or description, show how you tell registrants the method, availability and cost of the customer service that you provide (including office opening hours).
5. Code of practice
Either by URL or description, give details of the code of practice that you publish, which outlines a complaint handling and dispute resolution process in the event that a complaint is made.
Obviously, those are all aimed at people intending to run a business selling domain names to the public, which is not what I will be doing.
FagEnd let me copy the terms of service and Nominet rules stuff from his website to post on my site, and I bought a domain name on which to make what will look like an under construction domain sales site, nothing would work on the site, only the links to the TOS and rules etc for Nominet to look at to see I'm complying.
But my problem is, I'm not going to be selling domains to customers, this TAG will be used purely for myself, so I don't know what I'm supposed to put where it says
Charging awareness,
Related services,
Customer support, I'm not doing any of those things, but by having what looks like a business site, they will assume I am doing that, and I wouldn't know how to word something if I was to just make up the terms for those 3 things
So I'm in a bit of a fix, I thought this would be a simple case of register for a tag, pay and get it, wasn't aware that TAG's was all aimed at businesses, and not for individuals, surely they must know domainers use TAGS for their own purpose, and not to actually sell domain names, so why don't they have a TAG specifically for people who are not intending to run a bsuiness.
[edit]
And what's this other stuff about automatons and pgp's, what's that all about, do I need that stuff?
