Domain privacy

Keep your details
out of WHOIS.

Every registered domain has a public WHOIS record. Privacy replaces your name, email, phone and address there with neutral details, while messages meant for you still reach you.

  • Personal details hidden
  • Less spam and scams
  • Messages still reach you
Hidden details Name, email, phone, address
Less spam No harvested addresses
Still reachable Messages are forwarded
Still yours You stay the legal owner

Plans & pricing

Protect a domain

Privacy is added to a domain when you register or transfer it. Search for your domain to get started — we will tell you if its extension does not allow privacy.

Search domains

What you get

Your domain in public,
your details in private.

What WHOIS shows

Without privacy, anyone can look up the owner’s name, email, phone and address.

What privacy hides

Those details are replaced with neutral ones in the public record.

Forwarded messages

Genuine messages sent to the privacy address are passed on to you.

You stay the owner

Privacy changes what is shown, not who owns the domain.

Fewer scams

Fake renewal notices and cold calls need your details to reach you.

Where it is allowed

Most extensions allow privacy; a few country extensions do not, and we tell you before you buy.

Domain privacy

WHOIS and privacy.

What is WHOIS?

A public directory of who holds each domain. Registries require the details; privacy controls what is published.

Is the domain still mine?

Yes. You remain the legal owner; only the public listing changes.

Can people still contact me?

Yes. Messages sent to the privacy address are forwarded to you, without revealing your own address.

Can every domain have privacy?

Most can. A few country extensions do not allow it; we tell you when that is the case.
