Naturist Legacy Inc. and the Internet

Every year, millions of individuals, businesses, organizations and governments register domain names. Each one must provide identifying and contact information which may include: name, address, email, phone number, and administrative and technical contacts.

The WHOIS service is a free, publicly available directory containing the contact and technical information of registered domain name registrants. Anyone who needs to know who is behind a website domain name can make a request for that information via WHOIS. The data is collected and made available by registrars and registries under the terms of their agreements with ICANN.
