updating the contact email address;
changing the phone number;
c또는recting the mailing address;

updating the technical contact person;
replacing an outdated company contact email with a current role-based email. 예시: The 도메인 holder remains ABC Limited, but the administrative email changes from [email protected] to 도메인@example.com. This is usually considered a contact update, not an ownership change.
