WHOIS PRIVACY SERVICE.

Our Whois privacy service is provided through http://PrivacyAdvocate.org.
Whois privacy service is available for domain names for which Register4Less, Inc. is the direct ICANN accredited registrar. Domains registered through us as the reseller for another registrar (mostly for lower volume ccTLD domains) are not eligable for Whois privacy service.
The following policy applies for domains with the following exceptions:
  • For .ca domains, the registry operator CIRA provides the Whois lookup service and optional Whois privacy. For domains names registered to individuals with Whois privacy enabled, CIRA does not publish the individuals contact information in the Whois record. If you wish to contact a Registrant whose information is not displayed in the WHOIS, you may use the online Message Delivery form available at https://services.cira.ca/agree/mdf/index.action. The message is forwarded to the Registrant’s Administrative Contact email address as provided by the Registrant. CIRA cannot guarantee that messages will be received, read and/or responded to by the recipient. Please see http://www.cira.ca/whois for further policy information from CIRA.
  • For .us domains, the registry operator Neustar does not permit Whois privacy to be used for any .us domains.
By making use of the Whois privacy service, you agree to bound by all the terms and conditions set forth in this agreement. The following terms and conditions apply:
  1. Whois Contact Information

      You maintain ownership of your domain name at all times. You maintain the right to sell or transfer your domain at any time. You retain complete control over the domain name and its registration records and may suspend and reinstate the Whois Privacy Service at your discretion. Should you disable the Whois privacy service, your contact information will be published in your domain's Whois record.
    3. Eligibility
      The Whois Privacy Service may be used with both new and existing domain name registrations where the domain is registered by Register4Less, Inc. and allowed by the domain's registry. You may use the Whois privacy service with respect to a domain name that has been transferred but it will only commence after the transfer has been completed. If you wish to transfer the domain name to a different registrar,the Whois Privacy Service must be disabled in order to complete the transfer.

      We shall have the right, at our sole discretion and without liability to you or any of your Contacts, to suspend or cancel your Whois Privacy Service and to publish your contact details in your domain's Whois record. Situations under which we would suspend or cancel the Whois privacy service include, but are not limited to:
      • When required by law;
      • In the good faith belief that disclosure is necessary to further determination of an alleged breach of a law;
      • To comply with a legal process served upon Register4Less;
