WHOIS

With Whois query, you can access many information about the domain and find answers to one of the most curious questions, "who owns the domain". You can access the following information by making a Whois query.

1. To whom the domain belongs
2. Domain registration date
3. Domain update date
4. You can access many information such as the domain expiration date.

Domain whois query is carried out by transmitting it to the relevant Registry company via authorized ip addresses or to the database that the official registrars hosting the whois server with special agreements have specially established and allocated security conditions.

The identity information of some domains is hidden. This is referred to as domain whois protection. In order to reach the owners or financial or technical managers of domains with whois protection, it is necessary to notify the proxy address that assumes the confidentiality of whois information. Every whois protection service provider is obliged by ICANN rules to deliver the notifications transmitted through it to the real owner of the domain whose identity it conceals. Since the declaration is accepted as the basis for this obligation, the accuracy and timeliness of the contact information to reach the real owner of the domain names whose whois information is hidden is primarily the responsibility of the owner of the relevant domain.

ICANN provides guidelines designed to keep the WHOIS database as accurate as possible. Since the contact data of domain owners may change, domain registrars such as Atak Domain should allow domain owners to review and edit their WHOIS domain data every year. According to ICANN rules, refusing to update this information or providing inaccurate data may result in suspension or cancellation of domain names. In addition, ICANN allows internet users to file complaints if they discover that their WHOIS domain search data is incomplete or inaccurate. In such cases, domain registrars must quickly correct and verify the data. With this verification protocol, ICANN aims to ensure the highest possible level of data accuracy.

You can update your WHOIS contact information in the Domain Manager of your Atak Domain account. You can complete this process in just a few easy steps and update contact information one by one or in bulk. It is important to always keep your contact information up-to-date, both to comply with ICANN regulations and to ensure that you receive WHOIS correspondence with the correct e-mail address.

If you do not activate your Domain Privacy, every user who makes a whois query will access your information. As a result, you are likely to receive unwanted e-mails, unwanted sms, called spam mail.

When making a Whois query, if your domain privacy is not active, your information can be displayed. If your whois privacy is active, none of your information will be displayed. If your whois privacy is not active, your information that will be displayed if you make a whois query are as follows;

1. Name and surname of the domain owner,
2. Address of the domain owner,
3. Domain owner's e-mail address,
4. Personal information such as the domain owner's phone number can be viewed.

Whois hiding process depends on your personal preference, but we strongly recommend hiding it. The reason is that without whois protection, all your personal information (name, surname, e-mail, phone number, etc.) can be viewed by anyone. This can lead to a very serious data privacy breach. Moreover, spam messages to your e-mail and phone can be annoying.

Created by the Internet Engineer Task Force, RDAP allows users to access existing registration data.

"Extensible Provisioning Protocol" (EPP) domain status codes, also called domain status codes, indicate the status of a domain record. Each domain has at least one status code, but there can be more than one. With an EPP code, you can easily understand the status of your domain address. You can find detailed information about the codes by clicking on the ICANN EPP Code Descriptions link.
