常见问题/条款和条件
- 如何检查谁拥有域名或该域名是否可用？
转至http://whois.nic.ai并在那里输入名称。请注意，您想与“注册人”而不是“注册商”交谈。您还可以使用whois服务查找域，使用whois -h whois.nic.ai foo.ai等命令。我们通过 IANA 进行了此更改，但似乎并非所有whois客户端都已接受更新。 - EPP/ CoCCA接入
我们已经将大部分大用户迁移到EPP接入。这是大多数域。如果您想访问 EPP，请参阅EPP 常见问题解答。 - 哪里可以了解过期的拍卖。 ai域？
您可以阅读拍卖常见问题解答或访问拍卖网站auction.whois.ai 。 - 新的最终用户怎么样？
“.ai ”注册机构已转为使用零售网站来销售域名，并且只有旧最终用户可以登录到该网站。以下是当前零售注册商的列表。新的最终用户应使用其中之一进行注册。 - 我进行更改后多久它们就会出现？
注册更改几乎立即显示在whois中，并在大约 4 小时内显示在 DNS 服务器中。 - whois.ai 的旧用户去了哪里？
旧用户已移至zenaida.cate.ai ，并且有一个 泽奈达的常见问题解答。 - 域名中允许使用哪些字符？
从“a”到“z”的字母、从“0”到“9”的数字以及“-”。域不能以“-”开头或结尾，并且连续不能有多个“-”。 - 使用 AI 域的规则是什么？
使用不得违反安圭拉的法律。特别是，欺诈行为是违法的。例如，任何试图诱骗用户认为他们在另一个网站以便他们输入用户名和密码的域名都属于欺诈行为。该域名将被删除或提供给拥有被冒充域名的人，以便他们可以发布警告或他们想要的任何信息。 - 如果我们不支付域名费用会怎样？
首先请注意，任何逾期的域名都可能被删除。您不应该指望任何宽限期。通常有 30 天“暂停”，DNS 无法工作，但可以按正常价格续订。然后，可以在 60 天的时间内恢复“待删除”，但需支付额外费用。在 epp.whois.ai 上，您需要 140 美元才能恢复，还需要 140 美元才能续订，并且续订必须在同一天完成。 60 天的待删除期过后，它将进入拍卖池。欲了解更多信息，请参阅auctionfaq.html 。我们的系统计算的天数是官方计算的，如果您认为自己还有一天，您不应该过分抱怨。 - UDRP
安圭拉使用UDRP 。要提出 UDRP 质疑，您必须使用ICANN 批准的争议解决服务提供商之一。如果域名由 ICANN 认可的注册商管理，他们应与仲裁员合作。通常，这意味着要么不执行任何操作，要么转移域。我们将支持该提供商挑选的仲裁员的决定。
请注意，如果域名未付款且即将被拍卖，我们可以将域名转让给商标持有者，而无需提出异议。搜索UDRP 的AuctionFAQ了解更多详细信息。自 2023 年 1 月 1 日起，我们不接受针对“ .ai ”之前仅 1、2 或 3 个字符的域的 UDRP 质疑。 - 匿名联系人、 WhoisGuard或不良联系信息
隐藏联系信息是允许的，但如果某个网站看起来很诈骗并且隐藏了注册人的身份，我们会更快地将其删除。 - 暂停或撤销域名的理由
虽然我们需要大量 . .ai域名销售为安圭拉政府筹集了大量资金，我们不希望任何诈骗域名玷污安圭拉或“.ai”的声誉。如果人们知道“.ai”域中的诈骗网站，请举报他们。安圭拉政府保留删除或暂停任何域名的权利。这通常是由于以下或类似的诈骗行为之一造成的：- 在安圭拉任何非法行为
- 在安圭拉非法的色情内容，例如儿童色情、复仇色情等。
- 侵犯版权
- 讨厌言论网站。任何网站只是讨厌某个群体。
- 网络钓鱼 – 例如冒充另一个网站来让用户输入用户名和密码
- 拥有该公司的徽标或商标（但不隶属于该公司）
- 不诚实地作出虚假陈述以获取经济利益
- 任何承诺帮助人们快速致富的收费网站
- 任何看起来像传销、庞氏骗局或多层次营销网站 ( MLM )的内容
- 在没有安圭拉银行、经纪商、上市公司、ICO、交易所或赌博网站许可证的情况下进行以下任何行为

- 由信誉良好的域名监控机构报告的站点
- 如果网站所有者对以前的域（甚至非 .ai域）执行了上述任何操作，我们可以禁用当前域
- 有一个域名未被使用而我想要它？有些人认为，如果其他人注册了域名但没有真正使用它，那么他们就是“抢注”，应该有办法从他们那里夺走域名，但“
.ai ”域名没有这样的东西。如果域名已注册，那么只要注册人继续付费，并且不执行上一节中的任何操作，他们就可以保留该域名，即使他们并不真正使用它。 - 域的总数是多少？
截至 2022 年 7 月 20 日，域名总数为 143,737 个。截至 2023 年 6 月 14 日，域名总数为 248,609 个。 - 如果我有问题，我该如何联系某人？

FAQ / Terms and Conditions
- How do I check who owns a domain or if it is available?
Go to http://whois.nic.ai and enter the name there. Note that you want to talk to the “registrant” and not the “registrar”. You can also lookup domains with the whois service use the with a command like whois -h whois.nic.ai foo.ai We made this change with IANA but not all whois clients seem to have picked up the update yet. - EPP/CoCCA Access
We have migrated most of the big users to EPP access. This is most of the domains. If you would like EPP access please see EPP FAQ. - Where can I learn about the auctioning of expired .ai domains?
You can read the auction FAQ or go to the auction site auction.whois.ai. - What about new end users?
The “.ai” registry had moved to using retail sites to sell the domains and only legacy end users can login to this site. Here is a list of current retail registrars. New end users should sign up with one of these. - How soon after I make changes do they show up?
Registration changes show up nearly instantly in whois and within about 4 hours in the DNS servers. - Where did the legacy users from whois.ai go?
The legacy users were moved to zenaida.cate.ai and there is a faq for zenaida too. - What characters are permitted in domain names?
Letters from “a” to “z”, digits from “0” to “9”, and “-“. Domains can not start or end with “-” and can not have more than one “-” in a row. - What are the rules for using AI domains?
The usage must not violate the laws of Anguilla. In particular, fraud is against the law. For example, any domain that is trying to trick users into thinking they are at another website so they will enter their user name and password is committing fraud. The domain will be either removed or given to the people who own the domain that was being impersonated so they can put up a warning or any info they want. - What happens if we don’t pay for a domain?
First note that any domain past due may be deleted. You should not count on any grace period. Usually there is 30 days where it is “suspended” and DNS does not work but it can be renewed for the regular price. Then there is 60 days where it is “pending delete” can be restored at an additional cost. On epp.whois.ai you need $140 to restore and also $140 to renew and the renew must be done on the same day. After the 60 day pending delete period it goes into the auction pool. For more information see auctionfaq.html. Our system’s count of the days is the official count, you should not push the edge and complain if you thought you had another day. - UDRP
Anguilla uses the UDRP. To file a UDRP challenge you must use one of the ICANN Approved Dispute Resolution Service Providers. If the domain is with an ICANN accredited registrar, they should work with the arbitrator. Usually this means either doing nothing or transferring a domain. We will stand by the decision of the arbitrator picked by that provider.
Note that if a domain goes unpaid and was about to be auctioned we can transfer a domain to a trademark holder without contesting it. Search AuctionFAQ for UDRP for more details on this. As of Jan 1, 2023 we do not accept UDRP challenges for domains where there is only 1, 2, or 3 characters before the “.ai”. - Anonymous contacts, WhoisGuard, or Bad Contact Info
Hidden contact information is allowed but if a site seems to be scamish and has hidden the identity of the registrant we are much faster to take it down. - Grounds for suspending or revoking a domain
While we want lots of .ai domain sales as it raises significant money for The Government of Anguilla, we do not want any scammer domains tarnishing the reputation of Anguilla or “.ai”. If people know of scam sites in “.ai” domains please report them. The Government of Anguilla reserves the right to remove or suspend any domain. This is usually due to one of the following or similar scamish actions:- Anything that would be illegal in Anguilla
- porn that would be illegal in Anguilla, like child porn, revenge porn, etc.
- violating copyrights
- Hate speach site. Any site just hating on some group.
- Phishing – for example pretending to be another site to get users to enter username and password
- Has logos or trademarks from a company when they are not affiliated with that company
- Dishonestly making false representations for financial gain
- any site promising to help people get rich quick for a fee
- anything looking like a pyramid scheme, ponzi, or multi-level-marketing site (mlm)
- Doing any of the following without an Anguilla license to be a bank, broker, public company, ICO, exchange, or gambling site
- Holding client deposits
- managing investments for clients
- offering guaranteed returns of any rate
- asking for investors
- offering trading or exchange services for stock, bond, crypto or other similar markets
- any kind of gambling
- any site for attacking other sites, like DDOS or other
- Any sites on a list of scam sites will be suspended.
- Sites reported by reputable domain monitoring agencies
- if owner of the site has done any of the above with previous domains (even non .ai domains) we can disable a current domain
- There is a domain name that is not being used and I want it?
Some people think that if someone else has registered a domain but is not really using it that they are “squatting” and there should be a way to take the domain from them but there is no such thing for “.ai” domains. If a domain is registered then as long as the registrant keeps paying, and are not doing anything in the previous section, they can keep the domain, even if they don’t really use it. - What is the total number of domains?
As of July 20, 2022 the total was 143,737 domains.
As of June 14, 2023 the total is 248,609 domains. - If I have a problem how can I contact someone?
Send email to “[email protected]“. If you start your email subject with “AI3DOM” it will be sorted to the top and not lost in spam. It will also show me you read the FAQ, which I want to encourage. If you send email several times I will probably filter email from you so that you don’t need to do that in the future. You can call Monday through Friday from 8:30 am to 3:00 pm Anguilla time at 264-497-3255. - Can be modified at any time These terms and conditions can be modified at any time. They apply to all customers. We want happy customers and more customers so we intend to always have reasonable terms and conditions.
