The .hiv domain was originally applied for by DotHIV gemeinnütziger e.V., a nonprofit organization focused on combating HIV/AIDS. It was delegated to the root zone on May 31, 2014, after being approved under ICANN’s New gTLD Program. In September 2015, Uniregistry took over operations following a failed auction. Responsibility later transferred to Internet Naming Co., which currently operates the TLD with the same mission-driven model of reinvesting profits into HIV/AIDS initiatives.
