Terms of use.

Domain registrations: Nominet’s terms apply

If you arrived here looking for the underlying terms governing the registration of a .uk or .co.uk domain name, those are set by Nominet UK, the registry. They apply to every .uk domain regardless of which tag-holder it sits under. The current version is published at nominet.uk/go/terms.

Everything below this point is about your use of the presence.co.uk website, not about your domain registration. Our position on the Nominet “Key Terms” for tag-holders is set out in the Key Terms section further down.

Key Terms (Nominet Registry-Registrar Agreement)

The Nominet Registry-Registrar Agreement requires every tag-holder to publish how the “Key Terms” apply to its customers: charges, expiry and renewal handling, and advance notice of expiry. Because Presence Group Ltd holds a Self-Managed Tag (PRESENCEGROUP) and registers only its own domains under §C.3 of the agreement, we have no third-party customers. For audit transparency we set out how each Key Term applies to us, even where the requirement is technically not engaged.

Charges for domain-name services

We do not charge any customer for domain-name services. There is no transfer fee, no contract-termination fee, and no maintenance fee payable to us by any third party, because we have no third-party customers. The registration and renewal costs of every domain held under PRESENCEGROUP are met by Presence Group Ltd directly, as an internal business cost. If we were ever to sell a domain to a third party, the agreed sale price would be the only sum payable, with no separate transfer or termination charges.

Expired and expiring domains

Because we are the registrant, expiry handling is an internal business decision rather than a customer-facing process. We track every domain on our tag in a single internal register and trigger reminders well in advance of expiry. The schedule we run for our own portfolio is:

• 60 days before expiry. First internal review; renew-or-lapse decision recorded against the domain.
• 30 days before expiry. Final review and renewal action where applicable. This satisfies the 30-day advance-notice expectation set out in §B.1.13 of the agreement, applied internally.
• Day of expiry. Confirmation that any intended renewal has been processed and a record kept.

If a domain is allowed to lapse, it follows the standard Nominet expiry, suspension and deletion timeline; we take no further action with respect to it. We never transfer an expired or expiring domain into a third party’s name.

Renewal and how customers can renew

There is no customer renewal flow on this site, because there are no customers. Each domain is renewed by Presence Group Ltd directly through its wholesale registrar of record. Where a domain is part of an active product (for example, one of the sites listed on our home page), the relevant project lead is responsible for confirming renewal; otherwise renewal sits with the director.

If we ever register on behalf of a third party

Self-Managed Tag-holders may, under §C.4 of the agreement, hold up to the lower of 50 domains or 5% of their portfolio in the name of a third party. Presence Group Ltd does not currently use this allowance. If we ever did, we would treat those specific domains under Channel Partner obligations: a written agreement covering charges, renewal terms and termination; an explicit 30-days-before-expiry notice issued to the third-party registrant; and escalation routes that mirror our published complaints procedure.
