Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our WHOIS lookup tool
WHOIS is a query and response protocol that is widely used for querying databases that store the registered users or assignees of an Internet resource, such as a domain name, an IP address block, or an autonomous system. It provides information about the registration and ownership of domain names.
Many domain registrars offer privacy protection services that hide the actual owner's contact information in the WHOIS database. This is done to prevent spam and protect the owner's privacy. In such cases, you'll see the registrar's contact information instead of the actual owner's details.
WHOIS information is generally accurate as it comes directly from domain registrars and registries. However, there can be delays in updates, and some information (especially contact details) might be outdated if the domain owner hasn't updated their records. Privacy-protected domains will always show the registrar's information rather than the actual owner's details.
Domain status indicates the current state of the domain registration. Common statuses include "ok" (active and in good standing), "clientTransferProhibited" (transfer locked), "clientHold" (suspended), and "pendingDelete" (awaiting deletion after expiration). Each status provides information about what actions can or cannot be performed with the domain.
Yes, we do not store or log your WHOIS lookup queries. Your searches are performed in real-time against public WHOIS databases and are not recorded on our servers. However, some registries and registrars may log WHOIS queries made to their systems.
Some country-code top-level domains (ccTLDs) and new generic top-level domains (gTLDs) have different WHOIS policies that restrict the amount of information they make publicly available. Additionally, GDPR regulations have led to reduced visibility of personal information in WHOIS records for many domains.
