According to its WHOIS record, SPARKLAN.CN was created on July 28, 2006 and expires on July 28, 2027. That makes the domain about 20 years old. It is registered through 商中在线科技股份有限公司 and is active. The public WHOIS shows the registrant organisation as 上海及群网络科技有限公司. DNS is served by dns.intergroup.net and dns2.intergroup.net. Domains that are not renewed before their expiry date normally enter a grace and redemption period before they can be registered again. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. Registrars are the companies accredited to sell and manage domain names, and the sponsoring registrar is the one currently responsible for this name. Registry locks add an extra layer of protection for valuable names, because changes then need manual confirmation by the registry. 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. When a domain uses its own nameservers, the owner runs the DNS directly instead of relying on a hosting or DNS provider. The creation date shows when the name was first registered, while the expiry date shows how long the current registration has been paid for. A registrar transfer moves the management of a domain from one company to another without changing the domain name itself.
