According to its WHOIS record, ATO.CAT was created on February 1, 2010 and expires on February 2, 2027. That is around 16 years of continuous registration. It is registered through acens Technologies, S.L.U. (IANA ID 140) and is active. It expires in 81 days and must be renewed soon to avoid losing it. Corporacion Alimentaria Penasanta, located in Spain, appears as the registrant organisation. Nameservers decide where a domain's DNS is hosted, so a change of nameservers usually means the website or email moved to a new provider. Renewals are usually made for one to ten years at a time, so an expiry date far in the future shows a long-term commitment to the name. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider.
In the period from August 7, 2025 to February 3, 2026, 12 fields of the record were modified. Only the spelling of the registrar name changed ("acens Technologies; S.L.U." to "acens Technologies, S.L.U."); it is the same registrar. Status flags were updated: ok was removed. The registrant organisation became visible in the public record. It was renewed: the expiry date went from February 2, 2026 to February 2, 2027. The full record, including every stored snapshot, can be downloaded in JSON, XML or CSV.
For ATO.CAT, Whois Data Center keeps 20 historical WHOIS snapshots. The most recent capture is from February 3, 2026. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Security teams use WHOIS history to spot suspicious ownership changes and to link related domains. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Historical records are useful for due diligence, brand protection and investigating the background of a website.
