About ID Protect - How it works




Make your domain registrations private for only $15.00/yr
ID Protect is ONLY valid for the duration of the domain.  If you have already purchased your domain and you include the ID Protect later as an addon then the ID Protect will need to be renewed when the domain does.

Did you know that your name, email, and phone number are made publically available within the WhoIs database when you register any domain name? Any spammers, solicitors and other prying eyes can find your personal information online, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

Dynamic data management system stops spammers dead in their tracks.

Without ID Protect, spammers can obtain your email and contact information and then use it for spamming purposes and redistribution to marketing firms. Your email address can stay on file with various spammers and marketing firms for years. Check out the difference between an unprotected and protected domain registration.
