About auDA
auDA is a for-purpose organisation that operates the .au domain as a stable, secure, and reliable part of Australia’s suite of critical infrastructure. We work with a range of stakeholders including industry, government and the Australian and international community to develop and administer domain name policies in the .au country code.
We administer the .au for the benefit of all Australians and strive to unlock social and economic value for Australians through an open, free, secure and global internet.

.au members are critical stakeholders for auDA, providing helpful insights into the way in which Australians use the internet, enhancing auDA’s understanding of Australians’ online needs and providing input to auDA policies and strategy. We are committed to ensuring our membership is representative of the Australian community who use the internet, and seek to engage those who support the .au domain and auDA’s vision to unlock social and economic value for Australians through an open, free, secure and global internet.
