Once
Privacy Protection is enabled for your domain name, the Contact Details for
your domain name in any Whois Lookup query would display generic details. If
someone attempts to contact you at these details, this is how they will be
greeted:
- Letters, Couriers delivered
at the Postal Address would not be accepted. This implies, that you will
not be contactable at the address displayed in your domain name Whois.
- Telephone Callers would be
advised to email you at the email address displayed in the Whois of your
domain name.
- Email sent to the email
address listed in the Whois, will get a response specifying an unbranded
URL, which needs to be visited by this person. Upon visiting the site,
they would be able to mention their query in a secure form, while
specifying the type of Contact (Registrant, Administrative, Technical,
Billing) they wish to email. The contents of the submitted form will then
be emailed to the selected Contact's (Registrant, Administrative,
Technical or Billing) address, as specified in your Control Panel.
Therefore,
you are assured of still being contactable, even though your Contact Details
are not visible in the Whois of your domain name.
