Your information is out there

for anyone to find. Stop the spammers and scammers. Hide your personal information from the public with ID Protect today.

ID Protect is a service that hides your private information from being displayed publicly in a global database that is frequently used by spammers and data miners to bombard unprotected people with unsolicited advertisements and scams.

How it works?

ID Protect takes your unprotected, personal information and shields it from the public so that they only see the anonymous information.

ID Protect forwards legitimate emails to your real email address, but keeps spammers and data miners away.

Why is it necessary to add ID Protect to every domain I register?

Every domain registration is required to have accurate contact information (WHOIS data) associated with it. Data miners crawl the public WHOIS database for this information and sell it to marketing firms and advertising agencies, which can result in both spam and junk mail to your home. ID Protect hides your accurate contact information and stores it in a secure location, protecting your personal information without risking the suspension of the domain’s registration.

How to add ID Protect for a domain name?

When you go to check out a domain, add ID Protect to the domain and we’ll let you know if that domain is eligible for the service. You can also add ID Protect to domains you’ve already registered with us from client area.

Can I disable WhoisGuard if I need to?

What about emails sent to the ID Protect email address?

What can ID Protect do for me?

ID Protect replaces your name and contact information in the public Whois. This protects your private information from being mined and used for other purposes, such as identity theft or unsolicited marketing.

Is there an email auto-change option?

Yes. As an additional security measure against spamming, your ID Protect email address will change automatically at regular intervals. So by the time spammers and marketers have it in their databases, it will no longer forward to the client’s email address.
