Citrus America's domain (citrusamerica.com) is registered in GoDaddy but DNS is managed through [3] (the domain was migrated to Cloudflare at some point, though the original GoDaddy registration was retained). Because the site is hosted externally, GoDaddy cannot make the DNS changes itself and requires the account holder or their authorized party to act.
