Domain name holders to register with complete ID info
BEIJING -- A new ministry regulation requiring applicants of domain names to provide complete identity information will take effect from Wednesday.
The updated regulation, adopted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in August, requires registrars to verify the accuracy of information submitted.
Registrars must not share the information with third parties without consent from the holders, according to the regulation published on the ministry website.
Holders are required to register any changes of their identity and contact information within 30 days.
Telecoms administrators are tasked to supervise the operation of registrars, who should also regularly report their transactions and security control measures.
Regulations on the sale of insurance schemes and public auctions will also take effect from Wednesday.
