Yahoo! Domains, provides a place for individuals and organizations to register Internet web addresses, also known as domain names. You must be a Yahoo! registered user to order services through Yahoo! Domains. We also require that you set up a Yahoo! Wallet in order to use Yahoo! Domains so we can automatically bill your credit card for these services.
Information Collection and Use Practices
- In addition to registration information, Yahoo! Domains asks for other personal information such as the name, address, telephone number, and email address of the registrant and administrator. This information is transmitted to Internet Names Worldwide (a division of Melbourne IT Limited), or "INWW," for the purpose of registering your web address (domain name).
- By registering a web address, the personal information that you indicate as registrant and administrative contact will be made publicly available by INWW as required by the Internet's governing organization, ICANN.
- On the Yahoo! Domains Order Form, you have the option of receiving email announcements from Yahoo! Domains. If you choose to receive these announcements, they will be sent to the email address that you specify within your Yahoo! Wallet.
- We also offer a feedback form that allows you to send us comments and suggestions regarding Yahoo! Domains. This form asks for your name and email address, but only your email address is required. Your email address may be used to contact you regarding the feedback that you have provided to us, but will not be used for any marketing purposes.
