Adding Whois Privacy Whenever a domain name is registered, ICANN requires the registrar to publish valid contact details associated with the domain name. These contact details are publicly available in a Whois index. Understandably, not everyone is comfortable having their contact information public and there are some risks associated with not guarding those details.We highly recommend that you add Whois Privacy protection to your domain name.
