According to its WHOIS record, ARCHIVE-GATE.COM was created on October 30, 2003 and expires on October 30, 2027. That is around 23 years of continuous registration. It is registered through RegistryGate GmbH (IANA ID 1328) and is active. The registrant country on record is Germany. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Public WHOIS records can show the registrant organisation and country, while many owners now hide personal details behind privacy services. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details.
