Yes, all prices are in euro with VAT included and are the same for every customer. The total you see is what you pay.

Yes, it is free on every extension that allows it. It is not available for .it and .eu, which have their own rules: for .it, natural persons can still choose not to publish their data.

We notify you before expiry. After expiry, many extensions have a redemption period in which the domain can still be recovered for an additional fee; after that it is deleted. To avoid any risk, you can enable auto-renewal.

Individuals, companies and organisations with citizenship, residence or registered office in the European Union, the European Economic Area, Switzerland, San Marino or Vatican City. See the .it rules page for details.
