What is .click?
ICANN's records put the delegation of .click on August 16, 2014. Like most of the newer endings, it was applied for in the 2012 New gTLD Program round and its registry agreement was signed on June 5, 2014.
Waterford Limited also runs 3 other TLDs, including .forum, .love and .realty.
Under the hood, the root zone points to 4 name servers for .click, every one of them reachable over IPv6. The delegation is DNSSEC-signed, so resolvers can verify that answers for .click haven't been tampered with on the way. Registration data is published over RDAP and WHOIS (the WHOIS server is whois.registry.click).
