Registrars, their customers, and Jisc Customers should be aware that the information supplied for registering domain names under ac.uk and gov.uk will be held and processed in Jisc's databases. It will be made available as a matter of public record by electronic enquiries made to Jisc and its whois servers. Jisc will also make this information available to other organisations and their legal advisers for the purpose of ascertaining the registrants of domain names. Such disclosure will be made only after checks on the bona fides of the enquirers have taken place.
