TXT is a DNS record, containing data in human-readable form for external sources to gain info about a particular domain name or subdomain. In the most common case, such a record is used to prove that you own a domain name in case you are trying to add it to an online search engine or to some site traffic analytics platform. Considering that only the domain name owner/administrator may add custom DNS records, the TXT record works as a verification of ownership for the business offering the service. Another popular use for this kind of records is the e-mail SPF (Sender Policy Framework) protection, which ensures that an email address won't be spoofed and that individuals will not receive unsolicited mail from allegedly your mailbox. The TXT record includes details about the mail server where your electronic messages arrive from and functions as validation that it is a trusted one. Since there are no regulations about the content of this kind of a record, you could also include any other info also.
