These are the Terms and Conditions for the issue of SSL Server certificates
by Glengate Estates Ltd t/as nomanix.com ('GEL').

All applications are subject to review, approval and acceptance by GEL. All Applicants are required to include a Domain Name or intranet server name within the Certificate application. GEL does not verify the authority of the Subscriber to request a Certificate. GEL performs the authentication steps listed below (and checks generally for errors and omissions relevant to the authentication steps taken), but does not otherwise verify the accuracy of the information contained in the Subscriber’s Certificate request or otherwise check for errors and omissions.

GEL will verify that the Subscriber has control over such Domain Name at the time it submitted its application. To do this, GEL will send an e-mail message to one of the following e-mail addresses requesting confirmation of the Certificate order and authorisation to issue the Certificate in the Domain Name:

(1) an e-mail address listed as the administrative or technical contact for the Domain Name in an official InterNIC domain name registry that includes the Domain Name,

(2) a limited list of the most commonly used generic e-mail addresses for authorised persons at Domain Names (e.g., "admin@domain.com," or "hostmaster@domain.com" for the Domain Name domain.com), or

(3) after approval a manual process conducted by GEL, to another e-mail address containing the Domain Name that is listed as the Common Name in the Certificate order.

Proof of Right validation

GEL will perform verification of certificate information as follows:

-  Limited check of the applicant's domain name against a public domain name registry;
- Confirmation of applicant's Company name, name, address and phone number against information contained in an independent third party business database.
- Faxed documentation will be required when applicants company name cannot be validated using available information.

All certificate requests (CSR) must contain an Organisation Name (O) that is exactly the same as that which appears at public domain name registries as the owner of the domain.

Upon receipt of a confirming e-mail message authorising issuance of the Certificate, and having established the Proof of Right, GEL will issue the Certificate.

Domain names do not have to be meaningful or unique, but must match a second level domain name as posted by the InterNIC. GEL is not involved in the recognition, authentication, or role of trademarks involved in domain names. Name disputes (including trademark disputes) are not resolved by GEL, but are to be resolved between the Subscriber and other disputing parties by the governing registry at time of application according to applicable InterNIC or ICANN rules and/or by courts of competent jurisdiction.

GEL will insert an Organisation Unit field "Organisation Not Validated" or similar language for all ipsCA A1 SSL Server Certificates.

Subscribers submit their public key to GEL for certification electronically through the use of a PKCS#10 Certificate Signing Request (CSR) or other package digitally signed by the Subscriber’s private key.

As a minimum, the Subscriber must provide the following data in or with the CSR: Common Name

GEL will process the SSL Server Certificate Applications in the manner described above.

GEL reserves the right to use subcontractors or other third parties to assist in the performance of its operational requirements or any other obligation under this CPS.

At certain times during the application process in which GEL is not able to verify information in a Certificate application, a customer service representative may be assigned to the Applicant to facilitate the completion of the application process. Otherwise, the Applicant may be required to correct its associated information with third parties and re-submit its application for a Certificate.

If GEL finds that the Applicant's Certificate application was sufficiently verified, then the Applicant's Certificate will be signed by ipsCA. Upon signing the Applicant's Certificate, GEL will attach such Certificate to an e-mail and send such e-mail to the appropriate contact.

The e-mail will typically be sent to the administrative contact and technical contact designated by the Subscriber, and will include the date the Certificate was issued, the date the Certificate will expire, and the type of Certificate that was issued. Notification will not be sent to others than the subject of the Certificate and the subject’s designated contacts. GEL, in its sole discretion, may provide such technical or customer support to the Applicants/Subscribers.

The Applicant expressly indicates acceptance of a Certificate by using such Certificate.
