## Domain Name Privacy FAQs

### What is domain name privacy and why do I need it?

Every domain name owner must pass along their information to the ICANN (The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers) WHOIS directory so they can maintain a record of every domain name and who runs it.

Your WHOIS listing makes your contact information (name, phone number, address, etc) publicly available to anyone who looks for it online. Domain name privacy shields this contact information from the public and replaces it with the details of your domain registrar instead.
