What information is made public in the WHOIS database?
When a customer registers a domain name, the registrant’s address, e-mail and phone number are published in a public WHOIS database, as required by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN). The public WHOIS database is accessible by anyone, 24 hours a day, and includes the following additional information: • Address, phone number, and e-mail address of other domain name contacts • Date of the domain name registration • Date of the most recent update to the domain name record • Date that the domain name registration will expire • Host name and IP addresses for the domain name servers How is the SRSplus Private Registration service different from the “proxy” services? Those who offer Private Registration by “proxy” become the domain name holder or registrant themselves. The SRSplus Private Registration, the customer maintains full control as the registrant over the domain name registration.
