Protect your personal information from spammers, scammers, and identity thieves. Keep your WHOIS data private for just ₦3,500/year per domain.
When you register a domain name, your personal information becomes publicly accessible through the WHOIS database - unless you protect it.
Domain Privacy Protection (also known as WHOIS privacy, private registration, or domain proxy) is a service that replaces your public contact information in the WHOIS database with the contact information of a proxy service. This shields your real identity while maintaining your ownership and control of the domain.
ICANN requires every domain registrant to provide accurate contact information, which is then published in the public WHOIS database for anyone to see.
Your WHOIS record publicly displays:
ALL of this information is searchable, indexable by search engines, and harvestable by automated bots!
Your WHOIS record displays:
Your real information stays private and secure while you retain complete control over your domain!
Your personal information is valuable and vulnerable. Here are the serious risks you face without domain privacy protection:
Automated bots constantly scrape WHOIS databases to harvest email addresses, phone numbers, and postal addresses. Your information is added to spam lists and sold to marketers.
Your name, address, phone number, and email address are prime targets for identity thieves. This information can be used to impersonate you, open fraudulent accounts, or conduct social engineering attacks.
Cybercriminals use exposed contact information to social engineer domain transfers or gain unauthorized access to registrar accounts. Knowing your name, address, and email makes it easier to impersonate you.
Your home address becomes publicly searchable on the internet. This is especially concerning for Nigerian business owners, bloggers, activists, and anyone with a public-facing website.
Scammers use your public WHOIS information to craft convincing phishing emails that appear to come from your domain registrar, hosting provider, or other legitimate services.
Competitors can easily identify domain owners and track your business activities by monitoring your domain registrations. This gives them insight into your expansion plans and strategies.
Without Domain Privacy Protection, you're broadcasting your personal information to the entire world. Spammers, scammers, hackers, stalkers, and criminals have free access to your name, address, phone number, and email. Domain Privacy Protection is not optional—it's essential for anyone who values their privacy and security in Nigeria.
Domain Privacy Protection is a straightforward service that shields your identity while maintaining your full ownership and control of your domain names.
