According to its WHOIS record, SAVANA.ZONE was created on May 14, 2014 and expires on May 14, 2019. That makes the domain about 12 years old. It is registered through Tucows Domains Inc. (IANA ID 69) and is past its expiry date. Its record is locked against unauthorised transfer and updates. The registrant is listed in Italy. DNS is served by ns1.renewyourname.net and ns2.renewyourname.net. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. Privacy services replace the owner's contact details in the public record with those of a proxy, which is common for personal registrations. 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. Managed DNS providers are often used for speed, security and protection against attacks. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. 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.
Whois Data Center has 6 historical WHOIS snapshots for SAVANA.ZONE. The most recent capture is from May 19, 2018. Each snapshot is a dated copy of the public WHOIS record as it looked when it was collected. Buyers often review the history of a domain before purchasing it, to see past owners and registrars. A long history with few changes usually points to a stable owner, while frequent changes can signal a transfer or a resale. Investigators use dated records to establish who controlled a domain at a specific point in time. The snapshot list below shows every capture we hold, newest first. Comparing snapshots makes it easy to see when the registrar, nameservers or status of a domain changed. Snapshots are collected over time, so the gaps between them depend on how often the record was checked.
In the period from September 23, 2017 to May 19, 2018, 7 fields of the record were modified. The nameservers moved from ns1.bruschi.com and ns2.bruschi.com to ns1.renewyourname.net and ns2.renewyourname.net. Status flags were updated: autoRenewPeriod was added. The expiry date moved from May 14, 2018 to May 14, 2019, which shows the domain was renewed. Each change listed here can be checked against the original snapshots further down the page.
