.guardian Domain Information

Country flagLogo for .guardian Domain

Life insurance, disability cover, and employee benefits framed the .guardian application in ICANN's 2012 New gTLD Program — not, as the string might suggest, news publishing. It is a useful reminder that a common English word can be held as a trademark in a sector with no obvious connection to the word's everyday meaning, and that top-level strings inherit that ambiguity.

ICANN issued a notice of registry agreement termination in May 2024, retiring the extension after roughly a decade. Terminated strings are not released to the open market: .guardian cannot be registered, transferred, or acquired by any party, and the string returns to availability only through a future ICANN application round.
