Assuming that you mean that you are using the domain name to point to services which are at a residential, dynamic IP address, you will need to set up a Dynamic DNS service.
If a product is free, you're the product.
While I normally agree on #2, it doesnt really apply to Tailscale. Tailscale isn't completely free, they have a free tier to generate business but it's limited to 3 users per tailnet. Also its cryptographically impossible for them to snoop on your traffic.
I was referring to OP's use of IPQuick. This isn't a service I'm familiar with and it doesn't seem to be affiliated with any organization that I'm familiar with either.
