International Franchise Domain Name Information
Summary:
CKE Restaurants Holdings, Inc., Carl Karcher Restaurants LLC, and Hardee’s Restaurants LLC own the rights to the domain name registrations for all of our trademarks. For each country that we are doing business in or have plans to do business in, we will obtain the appropriate top-level domains for our brands (Carl’s Jr. and Hardee’s).
Process:
CKE will allow our International Franchisee’s to utilize the country specific domain name that we have registered for hosting a website specific to that country.
CKE will maintain the DNS (Domain Name System) for the domain and point specific DNS records to the addresses provided by the Franchisee or the Franchisees’ associate. (For Example, point www.carlsjr.countrycode to 192.168.0.1). Please note that CKE will require at least 6 business days’ notice to make any requested changes to the DNS records.
Please also note that CKE does not provide web or email hosting. We simply provide use of the domain name, that we have registered, to the Franchisee. We will also provide DNS services as requested (Refer to #1 above).
