Charleston Road Registry believes that the .tour gTLD will best add value to the gTLD space by limiting registration to only verified tour operators and ticket sellers. Charleston Road Registry plans to require registrars to confirm that a domain applicant is a tour operator or ticket seller via an established process. If the domain applicant passes the eligibility verification process, only then will the applicant be eligible to apply for a second-level domain in the .tour gTLD. To preserve the integrity of the gTLD, Charleston Road Registry reserves the right to adopt certain monitoring measures, including periodic audits. Charleston Road Registry also reserves the right to adopt enforcement measures, including a request that registrars facilitate a user reporting method to log complaints and⁄or potential instances of misuse within the gTLD. If a registrant is found to be in violation of the terms of the registry-registrar agreement or the registrar-registrant agreement, Charleston Road Registry may request that the appropriate registrar enforce such agreements through penalties, including but not limited to suspension of the domain name."<ref>[http://gtldresult.icann.org/application-result/applicationstatus/applicationdetails/809 Application Details, gTLDresult.ICANN.org] Retrieved 17 Feb 2013</ref>

==String Confusion Objection==
[[Google]] submitted a [[String Confusion Objection]] to the International Centre for Dispute Resolution ([[ICDR]]), saying that the .tour and [[.tours]] strings would confuse Internet users. Panelist [[Robert M Nau]] ruled on the side of Google. This decision will put [[Donuts]], the sole applicant for [[.tours]], into a contention set with [[Google]] for the .tour gTLD.<ref>[http://domainnamewire.com/2013/08/26/nau-strikes-again-google-wins-tours-objection-against-donuts/ Nau Strikes Again, Google Wins .tours Objection Against Donuts, Domain Name Wire] Retrieved 25 Sept 2013</ref>
