Every active domain is registered on the name of a person and through the registration procedure numerous details are submitted - the owner’s names, address, e-mail, contact number, and so on. This information combined with the registrar company name and the registration/expiration dates is called WHOIS of the Internet domain and in agreement with the policies of Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) it should be current and accurate. If a domain address has incorrect WHOIS details, it may be reported and if the details aren't corrected, the domain address may be erased or the registrar company may take over its ownership. By default, the WHOIS information is public and may be seen on a lot of lookup Internet sites, or for a small number of country-code extensions - on the Internet sites of the respective Registry businesses. All businesses that provide registration services are obligated to provide an uncomplicated way for their customers to access and modify the WHOIS info of any domain address they own as much as the particular TLD allows it.
