When you register a domain, you need to provide domain name owner information like name, email, and phone number. By default your information is public.

However, you can keep it private as it can be a gateway to some spam.

Domain name privacy also called “ID Protection” is a service that is offered by domain name registrars to keep your personal contact information private in the WHOIS directories.

WHOIS data is maintained in a public database that keeps all the information of domain names and their owner’s contact details. WHOIS is maintained by ICANN and that organization is responsible for introducing TLDs. It requires the email, phone, and mailing address of the owner. Many websites allow you to do a WHOIS checkup including ICANN.

If you'd like to maintain private domain name ownership data, register your domain with ID protection at Domain Quokka.
