WHOIS Privacy
Your contact information for your domain is required to be publicly
available via the WHOIS Database. While this
is a necessary way to ensure that domain owners can be contacted for
legitimate reasons, and all such databases require their users to
agree to their Acceptable Use Policy, this information is used by many
organizations as a source of email addresses to put on their spam
mailing lists.
In addition to our Anti-Spam Service, Regzilla
offers WHOIS Privacy Service to hide your contact information from
those who merely want to use it to send you spam. WHOIS Privacy
Service puts a layer of privacy between you and the Internet, while
still meeting all the ICANN requirements that people be able to
contact you for legitimate purposes.
WHOIS Privacy Service costs $5.00 per year.
To add WHOIS Privacy Service to your domain name, contact
Regzilla Support.
Highlights of WHOIS Privacy Service
WHOIS Privacy Service is available for .com, .net, .org, .info,
.name, .biz, .cc and .tv domain names.
Customers may purchase Privacy Service for any term between
1 and 10 years, on a per-domain basis.
The expiry date of the domain name does not have to match the expiry
date of the WHOIS service.
Once the service expires, your information will once again
be displayed in the WHOIS database.
How the Service Works:
- When WHOIS Privacy is purchased for a domain name,
confirmation email is sent to the domain's Administrative Contact.
The contact has 10 days to confirm the purchase, or the service will not be
enabled.
- Once confirmed, the domain's information is changed to that of
the WHOIS Privacy Service (see Record Information below).
- All inquiries for the WHOIS information of a protected domain
that are sent via telephone or email are directed to visit a web-based
request form. Inquiries sent by registered mail are scanned, and
then forwarded to the Registrant via email.
- Requests are then sent to the Registrant, who is free to respond
to or ignore the inquiry.
