Whois Privacy

When you register a domain name with any domain registrar, you will submit contact information for the following positions:

  • Registrant Contact (the owner)
  • Administrative Contact (approves critical changes via email)
  • Billing Contact (will receive renewal notices & receipts)
  • Technical Contact (usually the domain's host or registrar)


ICANN, the body that oversees domain registration and registrars for gTLDs, requires all domains to have complete and accurate contact information. Domains that are not confirmed are now subject to suspension under ICANN's new rules.
