2. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

   We offer various “web security” services, including SSL and code signing certificates services. Each of these are further described below and are governed by individual agreements with a specific set of terms and conditions referenced and incorporated herein, as well as various practice and policy statements that govern the services generally. All Services are governed by our Certification Policy and Certification Practice Statement. To the extent applicable, Services may also be subject to terms and conditions of our SSL Certificate Service Relying Party Agreement.

   SSL Certificates. Any SSL certificate you purchase from us or our affiliates is subject to and is intended for its specific use as described in the SSL Certificate Service Subscriber Agreement, or, if an extended validation certificate, by the terms the Extended Validation Certificate Service Subscriber Agreement. For Premium (EV) certificates, there is an extensive vetting process that starts with an in-depth application that will require you to provide details about your business, such as registration number, incorporation or registration agent and any relevant jurisdiction information.

   SSL Certificates Term. A new regulation introduced by CA/Browser Forum requires that all SSL certificates issued on or after September 1, 2020 be valid for no more than 398 days. As such, we will automatically re-validate and re-issue certificates so that the certificate validity period is not greater than 398 days as long as the subscription is active.

   Code Signing Certificates. Any Code Signing certificate you purchase from us or our affiliates is subject to and is intended for its specific use as described in the Code Signing Certificate Service Subscriber Agreement. After you purchase a Code Signing Certificate, you need to take all reasonable measures necessary to maintain sole control of, keep confidential, and properly protect at all times Your Private Key that corresponds to the Public Key to be included in the requested Certificate(s) (and any associated activation data or device – e.g. password or token) and ensure that, at a minimum, the Private Key is stored on a USB token that is physically separate from the device that hosts the code signing function until a signing session is begun. provide a certificate signing request (CSR) from the computer that is signing the code. Be sure to request the certificate using the computer and the account (typically Administrator) you will use to sign the code. Requesting the certificate creates a private key on the computer that you must associate with the code signing certificate when you install it. Depending on the use of the certificate, you can create the CSR automatically, or you can use a tool like OpenSSL to generate the CSR. After you submit your request, we verify the company information you supplied. The Registration Authority (RA) might contact you to provide additional information, if required. You can monitor the validation process through your account. Once the Code Signing Certificate is issued, we'll send you an email with a link to download and install the certificate file and any associated intermediate certificates.

SSL Setup Service. SSL Setup Service includes installing your SSL certificate, configuring your SSL and redirecting https, and updating mixed content errors, the sitemaps, and firewall settings. Setup limited to one server and one SSL per site and is a one-time service. You have 30 days from setup completion to notify of GoDaddy of any issues and request review of setup. Additionally, any unused SSL Setup Service will expire one year from purchase.
