According to its WHOIS record, APOKALYPSE2012.COM was created on July 12, 2009 and expires on July 12, 2017. That is around 17 years of continuous registration. It is registered through 1&1 Internet AG (IANA ID 83) and is past its expiry date. Status flags block unauthorised transfer. The registrant country on record is Germany. DNS is served by ns53.web.de and ns54.web.de. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Status flags such as transfer or delete locks are set by the registrar or registry to protect a domain from unauthorised changes. An older registration date is often seen as a sign of an established website, although age alone says nothing about who owns it today. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself.

In the period from February 27, 2014 to July 27, 2016, 16 fields of the record were modified.
