It only takes three simple steps to Transfer your domain name with Hetacloud.

If your domain name registration has expired, the domain will enter the process of being deleted from the registry and you will lose control over the domain name. When the process is complete, it will be freely available for anyone to Transfer.

For most TLDs (like .com, .uk, .org etc.) we offer a 30 day grace period to renew the registration. After this there is a 30 day redemption period in which you can still renew the registration, but there is an extra fee for this process.

There are some TLDs which are regulated in a way that don’t allow for a grace and/or redemption period (e.g. .io) and are directly available for anyone to Transfer when expired.

Short answer: yes!

When you Transfer a domain, your personal contact information (such as your name, address, and phone number) is typically added to the WHOIS database, which is a public directory of domain name registrants.

If you are concerned about your privacy and don't want your personal information to be publicly available, you should definitely consider using domain privacy protection.
