How do I remove my personal contact information from the WHOIS database?

You may remove your personal contact information from the publicly available WHOIS database by ordering  Register.com's Private Domain Name Registration service.

What is r.Protect® - Private Domain Name Registration?

r.Protect - Private Domain Registration is a feature offered by Register.com d/b/a DomainDiscreet.com for domain name registration services. This feature will let you remove your personal or business contact information from the Whois public directory  to ensure your privacy and protect your information from unsolicited email (spam) or junk mail.

Every domain name registered, as required by the domain name registration process, is entered into a WHOIS database where

• Your name
• Address
• Phone/Fax number
• Email address

is made available for public view by anyone, at anytime. This makes you a target to spammers and phishers looking to gather contact information for the purpose of forwarding unwanted solicitations.

With r.Protect - Private Domain Registration Register.com removes your personal or business contact information from public view and replaces it with the contact information for DomainDiscreet.com. to help cut down on the amount of spam and junk mail you may receive, as well as to help protect your privacy.
