Each active domain name is registered on the name of an individual and through the registration procedure many details are presented - the owner’s names, address, e-mail, telephone number, etc. These details along with the registrar company name and the registration/expiration dates is known as WHOIS of the domain address and in agreement with the policies of Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) it has to be current and legitimate. If a domain address has wrong WHOIS details, it might be reported and if the details aren't corrected, the domain can be erased or the registrar company may take over its ownership. By default, the WHOIS information is public and could be seen on numerous 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 obliged to provide an easy way for their customers to access and edit the WHOIS information of any Internet domain they own as much as the specific TLD allows it.
