WHOIS privacy
WHOIS privacy hides or masks eligible public registrant details for supported domain extensions. Availability depends on the domain extension and registry rules.
Domain locking
A registrar lock helps prevent unauthorized transfers. Keep domains locked unless you are actively transferring them.
Some extensions, including some country-code domains, have registry-specific privacy and contact display rules. The domain management page is the source of truth for each domain.
