# Domain freebies

> Everything bundled free with every Noxity domain registration — DNS hosting, email forwarding, WHOIS privacy, DNSSEC, and the auth code on demand. No hosting plan required.

Every domain registered with us comes with a baseline of services that registrars usually charge for separately. They're enabled the moment the domain lands in your account, regardless of whether you have a hosting plan, and you don't pay extra to use them.

## What's free with every domain

| Service                       | What it gives you                                                                                               | Where to manage it                                                                                                                               |
| ----------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Free DNS hosting**          | Authoritative DNS for the domain on Noxity nameservers. Standard record types, sensible TTL defaults.           | [Free DNS](/domains/freebies/dns) panel (no hosting plan) or cPanel [zone editor](/web-hosting/cpanel/domain-management/zone-editor) (with plan) |

| **WHOIS privacy**             | Public WHOIS shows a Noxity-managed proxy instead of your personal contact data.                                | [Domain panel](/domains/management/panel) → WHOIS privacy toggle                                                                                 |
| **DNSSEC**                    | DS records published at the registry, signed automatically when you use Noxity DNS.                             | [Domain panel](/domains/management/panel) → DNSSEC                                                                                               |
| **Auth (EPP) code on demand** | Generate the transfer code yourself, any time, no support ticket required.                                      | [Domain panel](/domains/management/panel) → Generate auth code                                                                                   |
| **Auto-renew toggle**         | Opt-in auto-charge before expiry, with a documented retry window in grace.                                      | [Domain panel](/domains/management/panel) → Auto-renew                                                                                           |
| **Activity log**              | 12 months of timestamped registry-side changes for the domain.                                                  | [Domain panel](/domains/management/panel) → Activity                                                                                             |

A handful of registries restrict some of these. WHOIS privacy is no-op on `.de`, `.eu`, and `.it` because those registries publish minimum contact data by policy. DNSSEC isn't supported on the few ccTLDs that don't accept DS records (effectively none today, but worth checking the per-TLD page). Everything else applies on every TLD we register.

## Why we bundle these

Most registrars charge separately for one or more of these — premium DNS, "WHOIS Guard" add-ons, transfer-fee gating, paid DNSSEC. We don't, because they're cheap to provide on the infrastructure we already run for hosting, and because nickel-and-diming domain customers is the slowest way to lose them.

If you're comparing TCO with another registrar, count the "what's free" column above against their add-on rates.
