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.
If you are using an SSL certificate on a website hosted by us, we will generate and securely store a corresponding private key. For security reasons, at no time will we release your private key, even per your request. If you wish to export your SSL certificate for use on a non-GoDaddy server, request a re-key of the SSL certificate - your current SSL certificate will become invalid and we will issue a new certificate for use on your non-GoDaddy server.
SSL Certificates Term. A new regulatory introduced by CAB Forum in July 2017 requires that all SSL certificates issued on or after March 1, 2018 be no more than 27 months validity. As such, We will automatically re-validate and re-issue certificates that are longer than 2 years as long as the SSL certificate has an active subscription.
We will automatically validate, issue and install the new certificate every two years for subscribing customers using our hosting products.
Customers using 3rd party hosting products will be required to reinstall the new certificate after we automatically validate and issues a new certificate. We will alert customers when to take action via the product dashboard and email.
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.
