“Domain Privacy gave me the comfort to know people couldn’t use my personal info – particularly since I was working from home.”
When you register a domain name, your contact details are automatically published online as part of the WHOIS database. This includes your name, email address and phone number.
That means you get flooded with junk mail and risk having your identity stolen. It’s not uncommon. It can happen to anyone.
Domain Privacy from 123 Reg withholds your details to protect your anonymity. Having that peace of mind is worth a lot when you’ve put everything into building a business; you can get it for just £4.99 (+20% VAT).
Register your Domain Name then protect your details with Domain Privacy
If you have already registered your domain with 123 Reg you can add privacy in the control panel.
Domain Privacy works with any domain, so once you’ve picked one, you can set it up immediately.
Signing up means you are still the domain owner – all it does is keep your details secure.
We’ll replace your name, email address, phone number, address and any business information in the WhoIs database with generic details.
We clear out the spam and keep you safe. If any important messages are found, we’ll forward them straight to your inbox.
Some people might try and access your details to spread malware and send spam. By protecting your domain names, you are hiding the information they need to do this.
Keep your private details off the WHOIS database by replacing them with ours. You still own the domain, but your details won’t be visible to the public.
Stop spammers from contacting you. Stop your details being used to send SPAM. Keep your business name squeaky clean by not being associated with junk email or scams.
For just £4.99 per domain per year you can protect your personal details and get peace of mind in knowing your name is out of harm’s way. Plus, you can cancel within 30 days of purchase with a full money back guarantee.
Find out how the use of Domain Privacy from 123 Reg has been vital for Appyparking to keep their most private details secret from scammers and spammers.
When you purchase a domain name from any provider, your details are automatically added to the WHOIS database – a record of all domain owners. This database will display your name, address, phone number, email and more, and can be viewed by anyone.
Domain Privacy is a service that will hide your details on the database. Your information is replaced by some generic details of ours, ensuring you are kept anonymous and preventing potential scammers and spammers from being able to contact you.
The service is available for all the most popular extensions such as .com, .net, .co.uk, .org, .info, .me, and .co. It also can be used with most other extensions, but there is a small number that cannot yet use this service. Following are the extensions that you cannot use private registration for: .ae, .archi, .asia, .at, .be, .berlin, .co.il, .co.nz,.co.za, .cx, .de, .es, .eu, .fr, .hamburg, .im, .in, .it, .jp, .nl, .pl, .pm, .pro, .ruhr, .us, .vote.
You can buy it annually. Please note that the costs for this service are not refundable.
This means that if you purchase our privacy protection for a domain you are planning to let expire, you may not claim a refund for the period after it expires.
We use a privacy service, contactprivacy.com, to hide your details. The service’s information will be displayed instead of your own. You will not be able to decide which details will be visible as there are strict regulations on what information can be displayed.
Emails sent to the contact address will be forwarded to your email address, so people with legitimate queries about your domain can contact you.
Even though the details show our privacy service, you are still the owner of the domain.
