| The Truth About Owning a Domain
Name |
|
Did you know that ICANN, the international governing
body for domain names, requires every Registrar to maintain
a publicly accessible "Whois" database displaying
all contact information for all domain names registered?
|
|
| Protect Yourself |
|
| Now, you can keep your contact information from
getting into the wrong hands. When you purchase a private
domain name with Hostway, our partner WhoisProtector.com,
provides its contact information in the Whois database
in place of yours—so your contact information
is kept private—and you retain full control over
your domain name without the risk.

Keep Your
Contact Information Private |
|
|
Keeping your personal information out of the hands of
potential spammers, identity thieves and name hijackers
is serious business. To satisfy ICANN’s requirements
while keeping your privacy protected, WhoisProtector provides
its contact information in the Whois database in place
of yours—so your contact information is kept private—and
you retain full control over your domain name without
the risk.

|
You Retain
Control |
|
|
Even though the domain name is registered with WhoisProtector’s
contact information, you retain complete control and can
cancel, sell, renew or transfer your domain and configure
the name server setting.

Private
Email Address |
|
|
WhoisProtector creates a private email address for you
that will be used for your domain registration. When messages
come to this address, you control how they are handled
by selecting to not forward or filter for spam before
we forward messages to you.
|
|
|
Private
Postal Address |
|
|
Since the WhoisProtector postal address will be provided
for the Whois database, you will be notified by email
if any first class, registered or couriered mail, that
appears to be of a legal nature, is delivered on your
behalf. You have the option to have the mail forwarded
to you, returned to sender or discarded. Email notification
will include a description of the mail and any applicable
postage and handling fees that will be applied to forward
the mail to you.
