'''.hiv''' is a new generic top-level domain (gTLD) delegated to the [[Root Zone]] in [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]] for spreading awareness, raising funds, and joining in the fight against HIV and AIDS. The registry is run by [[Uniregistry]].

 

The applicant and original [[Registry Operator]] was [[DotHIV gemeinnütziger e.V.]], but the TLD was put up for auction in April 2015. The auction failed to meet reserve and In September 2015, Uniregistry agreed to take over the gTLD and continue to run it under it's same business model, at least at the beginning.<ref>[http://domainincite.com/19359-uniregistry-will-stick-with-risky-hiv-model-for-now Uniregistry takes over .hiv]Retrieved 27 October 2016</ref>
