You are the registrar.

Registry is the organisation that manage top level domain name. Example is dotSpace

Registrar is the ICANN accredited company that are allowed to sell/register domains to public. Example, 1and1

Registrant is the person buying the domain name. Example you buying a domain from 1and1
