TAKETHELEAPSWEEPSTAKES.COM dates back to March 28, 2016; its registration is valid until March 28, 2027. That makes the domain about 10 years old. CSC Corporate Domains, Inc. (IANA ID 299) manages the name, which is active at the moment. The public WHOIS shows the registrant organisation as Hearst Magazines, Inc, based in United States. Changes to the registrant organisation can point to a sale, a merger or simply an update of company details. 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. 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. 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. 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.
