Domain Privacy Protection for .us Domains
Due to a policy from the .us Registry, we are unable to provide privacy protection for .us domains. Since August 1, 2008, the .us Registry has mandated the removal of privacy for all .us domain registrations.
WHOIS Privacy and .us Domain Names
You may ask: "The WHOIS database displays my personal information for my .us domain names. How do I get privacy protection for the .us domain?"
The .us Registry policy for Registrars states the following:
"No registrar, nor any of its resellers, affiliates, partners and/or contractors shall be permitted to offer anonymous or proxy domain name registration services which prevent the Registry from having and displaying the true and accurate data elements contained in Section 3.3 for any Registered Name."
