Questions About Whois

A whois directory is a database that is used to store domain information regarding the owner of a domain name, his or her phone number, contact information and addresses, and email address. In regards to ICANN’s rules, WHOIS for newly registered domain name, including company and personal contact details, are publicly available. This opens a back door for abusers and spammers. Through WHOIS Privacy Protection, domain owners will have their WHOIS data replaced by generic information, which will eliminate all chances of spam outbreaks, identity theft or domain hijacking

You can add WHOIS Privacy Protection before or after purchasing your domain name but we do recommend that you add the WHOIS Privacy Protection before the domain purchase. This will ensure that there is no single time that your personal information is never made public. Enabling the WHOIS Privacy Protection after domain purchase your personal information will have made public and some WHOIS website may take some time before they update their database and your details may be out there on public before it is removed

Domain privacy protection keeps the domain contacts information private from the public and therefor prevent domain identity theft and spamming
