Enabling / Disabling Theft Protection in Bulk

Apart from enabling / disabling Theft Protection for domain names individually, you may use the Bulk Theft Protection tool to enable / disable Theft Protection for multiple domain names belonging to your Customers and / or Sub-Resellers. You may need to enable Theft Protection for domain names in order to ensure that your domain names remain safe from illegal domain name Transfers.

Features of Domain Name Theft Protection

• A Transfer [Away] Request for this domain name to another Registrar will fail at the Registry itself and will not be allowed.

• Theft Protection can be enabled/disabled by anyone in the entire Reseller chain.

  Examples:

  • A Customer under your Sub-Reseller registers a domain name and the Theft Protection gets enabled by default. This service can be disabled by you, your Sub-Reseller as well as the Customer.

  • Irrespective of who disabled the service, it can be enabled by you, your Sub-Reseller as well as the Customer.

  • Irrespective of who enabled the service, it can be disabled by you, your Sub-Reseller as well as the Customer.

• Theft Protection, for a domain name Locked by you, may be enabled/disabled only by you.

• Theft Protection, for a domain name Locked by your Sub-Reseller, may be enabled/disabled by you as well as your Sub-Reseller.

• Theft Protection cannot be enabled / disabled at any level for a Suspended domain name.
