  • According to the regulations introduced by Internet Corporation of Assigned Names & Numbers (ICANN) starting from December 1, 2016, a new Transfer Policy will be in effect with all registrars.

    The Transfer Policy was formerly known as “Inter-Registrar Transfer Policy” or IRTP. Until this new change, this policy only covered domain transfers between registrars (it’s the policy that mandates the Forms of Authorization to be completed by a registrant prior to a transfer). The new policy also covers the process of changing ownership of the domain from one entity to another (registrant to registrant). Every time a change of registrant takes place, the policy is called upon and a series of confirmation and approval emails are triggered. What’s important to note is that simple updates to a registrant’s first name, last name, organization and email address on a particular domain also trigger the same notification and confirmation emails.

    Nowadays, people hook up to the internet like buying a TV and then connect to the wall socket and that is it. You can begin to watch it from there when the TV is switched on.
