Clarifications in regards to the processing of personal data
4.1 Why shall the Company process Data of Personal Type (DPT) and the Special Category Data of Personal Type (SCDPT)?
With the purchase of services / products that the Customer carries out through the Company’s website, they state that they wish for the Company to handle the completion of a task or the mediation between the Customer and some third party for the completion of a task with the Company’s function being an Internet service provider. The Company, based on information / data the Customer declares in its website / ordering form, should integrate such into a homogeneous category and calculate, based on said declarations, the product/ service which is suitable and relevant for the Customer.
For such to happen, the Customer needs to fill in the particular DPT and/or SCDPT noted in the relevant fields of the ordering form. This data is objectively essential to the implementation and function of the provided service. The proper and complete information for data the Company requests are considered obligatory of the Customer, according to law. It is possible that inaccurate or incomplete data the Company requests to find, cause for the Company to demand even the cancellation or report of the provided service, at any time.
For however while the contract for service provision remains in effect, the Company shall process Customer data which are necessary for its function based on the present contract with which the Customer consents to should they proceed in carrying out an ordering of service / product from the Company.
4.2 In what kind of data processing shall the Company proceed to?
After the Customer proceeds in the ordering a product / service and has filled in all necessary fields in the order form, the Company shall, for the reasons already noted, carry on with any action or series of actions processing the Customer’s data with assistance of automated means like, for example gathering, input, organizing, rectifying, storage, adjustment, shift, recover and searching of information as well.
The Company makes use of automated means for the fulfillment of the order and providing the service. Through said means, the Company can reach decisions quicker, with greater accuracy, transparency and consistency. However, in those cases, regular relevant checks are made from pertinent Company employees.
The Company, in the name of safeguarding legal interests, often runs checks, through automated procedures to prevent scams against it.
In particular, the following individual audits are made towards compliance of the Company with instruction from european and greek legislature.
-
Audits (and automated ones) are conducted for preventing the use of products in money laundering and / or the funding of terrorism.
-
Audits are conducted and files and data are sent towards compliance of the Company with the administrative cooperation of European Union member-states.

4.3 For how long shall the Company hold the Customer’s data in a file?

-
The right of restricting processing (In case of doubt being presented so as to the accuracy of data etc.)
-
The right of portability (for the Customer to receive their data at a structured and commonly used format)
Such rights are exercised sans cost for the Customer, with the sending of relevant postage or email to the Data Protection Officer, unless they are repeated often and due to volume, they possess administrative weight for the Company, hence the Customer shall be burdened with the relevant cost.
Should the Customer exercise any of those rights, the Company shall undertake any possible means for the satisfactory conclusion of such a request within thirty (30) days from receiving the relevant request, after the Company notifies such either for its execution, or the subjective reasons which prevent it.
Beyond such, the Customer, may, at any time, be set against the processing of their DPT and SCDPT for the purposes of the contract service provider, withdrawing their consent. However, this will lead to the termination of the Customer’s contract services provided from the Company because (according to the above) no service works without processing of the Customer’s DPT and/or SCDPT (concerning data).
4.5 How is the Customer’s data security safeguarded?

Where a processor engages another processor for carrying out specific processing activities on behalf of the Company as a controller, the same data protection obligations as set out in the contract or other legal act between the Company as the controller and the processor, as provided for in paragraph 3, shall be imposed on the other processor by a contract or other legal act in accordance with the law of the Union or of the Member State, especially to provide sufficient assurances to implement appropriate technical and organizational measures in order processing meets the requirements of this Regulation.

5.27 The Company may ask the Customer for further information where necessary for the final registration of the .COM.CY or .CY domain name in the Registry.
5.28 The Customer is obliged to:
a. respond to the Company’s requests for information when required by the Registry without delay and in any event within 48 hours.
b. respond to the Registry’s requests for information without delay.
c. inform the Company of any change in their contact details as soon as possible and in any event within five (5) days. These data must be up-to-date and accurate.

5.29 The Company has no liability if prejudice is caused to the Customer due to improper information as defined in paragraph 17.
Domain Expiry
5.30 When a domain name expires, in most scenarios, it is put into a ‘quarantine’ situation in which only the designated owner has the right to renew it. The Customer may be informed for domain name’s quarantine duration from the Company pricelist page, or through communication with the Support Department of the Company. If a quarantine period is not implemented, the domain name either directly goes into a redemption period (5.12) or gets deleted according to the regulations of each registry.
For .DE domain names, after the expiry date, the Customer explicitly consents to the deletion of domain name according to details noted here .
5.31 Domain Redemption
After the quarantine period resolves, or directly after the domain name expires (should there not be a quarantine period) the domain name is deleted and it enters into a ‘redemption’ period lasting about 40 days. The Customer should and can be informed for the duration of such period of a domain name in communication with the Company’s Support Department. See term 5.32 for renewal from ‘’redemption’’.
The Company cannot guarantee the renewal of a domain name from redemption, hence it is suggested the Customer renews their domain name in time, before it expires.
5.32 Renewal of an expired domain
The cost of renewal from quarantine remains the same as the cost for such before the domain expires. For renewal of a domain name from ‘redemption’, a redemption fee is added to the cost, varying depending on the resolution and is displayed for the Customer to see in the pricelist page.
In case the fee is not visible, the Customer should communicate with the Company’s Support Department to be informed of the total cost of renewal from redemption for the domain name they are interested in.
The Customer acknowledges that the redemption period as well as the renewal fee vary according to the TLD and it is their responsibility to be aware of a registry’s particular terms for domain names in their possession.
5.33 Delete and Restore Domain
A domain name can be deleted for reasons other than its Company within fifteen (15) days. At the end of the fifteen-day period and in case the necessary information has not been sent on time, the Company has the right to delete the domain name. In this case, the domain name enters Registrar Hold (or Customer Hold) mode, ceases to function and cannot be transferred until the registrant sends accurate and up-to-date WHOIS data.
The domain name owner must send official documents to certify the authenticity of his/her data (e.g. ID or passport), in order for the Company to restore a domain name. In particular, in cases of illegal or unauthorized activity, the Company reserves the right to terminate the operation (Registrar Hold or Customer Hold) and to proceed with the deletion of a domain upon receipt of a court order or court decision or decision of an arbitral tribunal which requires such action, as well as in cases required by applicable national and European legislation
5.34 Domain Transfer
The Company, as an authorized registrar from ICANN, provides the new registers of gTLDs, like .COM, .NET, .BIZ and others directly – without intervention from a third-party Company or partner. For the already registered domain names the transfer is concluded within 5 (or 10) days and the renewal is completed after that.
Attention: The Customer might receive an email directly from ICANN, in which they are asked for confirmation of their data, through a link, so as for the transfer and renewal to be concluded properly. Within the 5 (or 10) day span, no change to the nameservers can be made. Changing the domain name’s registry can be carried out normally, 60 days after its renewal.
5.35 As noted in the ICANN Transfer Policy, the domain owner explicitly authorizes the Company or the Company’s partners when deemed necessary, to act as designated agents to approve the changing of owner data for their account.
Transfers During a Dispute
5.36 Transfers of a Domain Name to a new owner
A Customer cannot transfer a domain name to another owner:
(i) during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 or for a period of fifteen (15) business days ; or
(ii) during a pending court proceeding or arbitration commenced regarding the Customer's domain name unless the party to whom the domain name registration is being transferred agrees, in writing, to be bound by the decision of the court or arbitrator.
We reserve the right to cancel any transfer of a domain name registration to another owner that is made in violation of this subparagraph.
Changing Registrars Restrictions
5.37 A Customer may not transfer the domain name to another registrar during a pending administrative proceeding brought pursuant to Paragraph 4 of theICANN Regulation or for a period of fifteen (15) business days (as observed in the location of our principal place of business) after such proceeding is concluded. A Customer may transfer the domain name’s administration to another registrar during a pending court action or arbitration, provided that the domain name shall continue to be subject to the proceedings commenced against the Customer in accordance with the terms of this Policy. In the event that the Customer transfers a domain name registration to our company during the pendency of a court action or arbitration, such dispute shall remain subject to the domain name dispute policy of the registrar from which the domain name registration was transferred.

5.37 The service is available for .GR, .EU, .COM, .NET domains.
5.37 A domain name, depending on the extension, enters a quarantine status for 15 or 40 days, followed by a 30 or 40-day redemption period. The Backorder service will initiate registration attempts immediately after that period, the date and time at which the domain name will be released and will be available for registration.
5.38 The Backorder service will compete with third-party services to register a domain, but does not guarantee the Customer that domain registration will be successful.

5.40 The Customer will be charged with the Backorder Admin Fee and the Registration Fee, the moment of the order.
5.41 If the domain name is released but not successfully registered by the Company’s Backorder service, either because it was registered by another company or because it was renewed by its current owner, then 95% of the Backorder Admin Fee is refundable (€9.45), if a cancellation of the service is requested by the Customer. If service cancellation is not requested, the service will continue to track the domain until it is successfully registered on a future release date or the service is cancelled by the Customer.
5.42 A refund of the registration cost may be claimed by the Customer if, after the first expiration date of the domain, the Company fails to register it.
5.43 The Backorder service continues to be active until the backordered domain is registered, or the service is canceled and a refund is requested by the Customer.
5.44 As expiration date of a domain is considered the date a domain becomes available for registration after any grace or redemption period.

Managing and monitoring domain name abuse reports procedure
5.53 Upon receipt of a request for Abusive Behavior by a customer-holder of a domain name (as described above in paragraph 5.52), our company will take action. In accordance with ICANN Regulations and paragraph 3.18.2, a competent employee of our company, within 24 hours, contacts the customer in order to confirm his/her personal details. Immediately the reported domain name gets locked (Registrar Hold or Customer Hold) and no changes / modifications and transfers can be made for a period of fifteen (15) days.
The domain owner must then send official documents to certify the authenticity of his/her data (eg. ID or passport), in order for the Registrar to restore the domain name. If the customer confirms his/her details within fifteen (15) days, there is an update on any error or abusive behavior concerning the website. While we unlock the domain name and account, corrections are made on the domain by its owner.
If the customer does not respond within the above deadline, the company has the right to delete the customer's domain name without taking any further action or notice.
ΗThe above procedure is different in case the customer’s website is hosted to us. Specifically, it’s not allowed for illegal content to exist on websites hosted on our company’s infrastructure. In case of detection, our company reserves the right to immediately deactivate the specific website (Terms 6.1 and 6.2). However, as a domain name provider, it is not our responsibility to determine if the domain name in question is actually being used for illegal activities. If you have clear indications that one of our customers are using their domain name for illegal activities, help us by contacting your local police department and asking them to investigate the case. For specific information about our policies, see the General Terms and Conditions Agreement or make a claim here.

Subscriptions’ Functionality
17.3 In order for the Company to ensure the continuous operation of the Customer's services, the Company's services follow the subscription model. By using the Company's site and in accordance with this subscription model, the Customer acknowledges and accepts that their account is subject to automatic renewals.
This means that for new purchases or renewals of services paid by card or credits, the Customer’s subscription is activated and their service will be renewed automatically in the future by means of the payment method they have selected. Three (3) days prior to any attempt to charge their card, the Customer will be notified by email about the charge that will follow. The subscription model applies to all Papaki services except for SSL certificates.
17.4 If the Customer does not wish to renew their service subscription automatically, they can easily disable it through the subscription management page in their control panel.
Data Security
17.5 When purchasing a new service with card, an ID code (token) is created after contacting the Eurobank debit system, which is stored on the Company's platform and serves to identify the card upon renewal.
This ID code (token) is a random set of symbols that acts as a substitute for the data of a card. There is no direct mathematical relationship between its original value and the card, so the actual data cannot be determined by a reverse process. The actual correlation between the code and the card is stored in the token vault of the bank and outside of it there is no connection between the two values.
This process allows the Company not to store the Customer's sensitive credit card data in its system, and thus ensures absolute security of transactions. Before the service expires, this ID code is called and after the card is identified, subscriptions are automatically renewed.
To identify the card in our systems specific, non sensitive information is stored in accordance with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS), such as card expiration date, the first 6 and the last 4 digits of the card number. The first 6 digits inform us also about the country and bank issuer, data used to validate payments and avoid fraud transactions.
Recognizing the importance of electronic payment security, EveryPay is a licensed Payment Institution by the Bank of Greece (Decision No. 280/3 / 23-7-2018 GG B 3010 / 25-7-2018), and manages securely card payment transactions, in accordance with the regulatory framework of the card transaction security management standard. Everypay is certified in accordance with the PCI DSS compliance standards. All Everypay services are made through secure connections with 256bit SSL certificates. EveryPay also supports the ability to use the 3D Secure service, an additional security token for VISA, MasterCard, Maestro, Diners & Discover. The Payer then has to enter his personal secret code to complete the transaction successfully

The first attempt to renew the Customer's subscription is conducted about 10 days prior to its expiration and depends on the service (for example, some domain name extensions require the renewal to be specific days before their expiration), so this time is added to 10 days.
17.11 Failure to pay may be due to the balance of the card or credits, in which case the Customer will receive an email informing them about the reason of the failure. When the Customer receives the first email, they must take the necessary actions recommended in this email to resolve the reason why the payment failed.
17.12 There are two more (2) charging attempts. If payments fail again, the Customer must manually renew the service, otherwise the service will expire.
