Frequently Asked Questions

What is WHOIS?

WHOIS is a public protocol that stores registration records for domain names — who owns it, which registrar manages it, when it expires, and more.

Why are owner details hidden?

Most modern registrars apply WHOIS privacy protection (required under GDPR in Europe). Personal data like name, email, and phone are replaced with the privacy service's details. This is legal and common.

What is RDAP and how is it different from classic WHOIS?

RDAP (Registration Data Access Protocol) is the modern replacement for the plain-text WHOIS protocol. It returns structured JSON data, supports authentication, and is the ICANN-mandated standard today.

What does the Domain Health Score mean?

The score (0–100) is calculated from 6 security factors: DNSSEC signing, transfer lock, delete lock, expiry buffer >90 days, at least 2 nameservers, and active domain status. A score of 80+ is considered excellent.

What are EPP status codes?

EPP (Extensible Provisioning Protocol) codes define what operations are currently allowed on a domain. For example, "Client Transfer Prohibited" means the registrant has locked the domain to prevent unauthorized transfers.
