Editing HEXONET Renewal System (section)

== Registration/Renewal of SSL Certificates ==

SSL Certificates can not be renewed automatically. Certificates always expire on their expiration date and must be recreated with a new certificate. As a result, SSL Certificate Objects in the HEXONET system only have the following dates/periods assigned:

* '''RegistrationPeriod'''
* '''CreatedDate'''
* '''ExpirationDate'''

When the ExpirationDate is reached, the SSL certificate expires, however, the certificate still remains in the HEXONET customer account an additional 30 days.  During this time, customers can use our "renewal" option, which is a new certificate order replacement using the same data as the old certificate. Please be advised that depending on the certificate type and vendor, the SSL certificate validation process may have to be completed again.

RegistrationPeriods for SSL certificates are dependent from the type and vendor of the respective certificate (usually between 1 and 5 years). For details please have a look at our official [http://hexonet.net/price-list.php price list].
