ID Protection, also known as WHOIS Privacy, is a service that hides your personal contact information (such as your name, email, phone number, and address) from the public WHOIS database. This protects you from:
- Spam and phishing emails
- Unwanted marketing calls
- Identity theft
- Domain hijacking attempts
When ID Protection is enabled, your domain registrar replaces your details with those of a generic forwarding service, keeping your identity private while ensuring that legitimate contact requests can still reach you.
How Much Does It Cost?
ID Protection is available for a small annual fee, pricing may vary depending on the domain extension (TLD), but typically ranges from $5 to $12 per year per domain.
Keep an eye on our website, we occasionally run special offers where ID Protection might be available at no cost for a limited time!
How Do I Add ID Protection to a Domain Name?
You can add ID Protection during domain registration:
- Simply select the ID Protection add-on when placing your domain order.
- It can be added before checking out as part of the registration process.
You can also contact our support team anytime to request manual activation of the service.
