Did you know that when you register a domain, your name, address, email address and phone number are immediately made available to anyone who wants to see them? That’s right. Your personal information is exposed 24 hours a day, everyday, to anyone, anywhere.

How it works !!

• Your new or existing domain is registered in the name of Domains By Proxy -- so their information is made public -- not yours.
• You retain full benefits of domain registration. You can cancel, sell, renew, or transfer your domain; set-up name servers for your domain; and resolve disputes involving your domain.
• The patented registration and email handling systems let you manage and control all postal mail and email addressed to the domain you have registered, as well as the domain's contact information.
• Your domain registration is safe and insured against loss.
• But don't even think about using a private registration to transmit spam, violate the law, or engage in morally objectionable activities.

A Private "Unlisted" Registration protects you from:

• Domain-related spam
• Harassers, stalkers, and data miners
• "Moonlighting," home- or side-business identity disclosure
• Privacy intrusions

Example

	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.
	Example: John Smith lives at 1234 Elm Street, Hometown AZ 85000. His home phone is 480-555-5555. He buys "ProxiedDomain.com". With a public registration, John's personal information is available for anyone to see. With a private registration, John's personal information is shielded from public display, and a private email address allows John to control who reaches him.
