Privacy Protection is a feature in your account which enables you to protect your public information in your domain over the Whois. Domain privacy is offered by many of the domain registrars. When buying privacy for your domain, the Whois with the data of a forwarding service (such as email and sometimes postal email done by a proxy server) will be replaced by BigRock.

In this article you will be guided in enabling and disabling privacy protection in BigRock.

  1. Select “Buy Privacy” and proceed for payment.

For the changes to be updated you need to wait for an hour or two. A Whois check status will then be posted as “The domain’s contact information is privacy protected”. When this happens, you already enabled the privacy protection for your domain in BigRock.

You have to take note that the registry imposed that some domain extensions do not support privacy protections. These domain extensions are the following:

.IN (& third level .IN domains like .CO.IN, .WEB.IN)

.ASIA

.AU

.CA

.CN

.ES

.EU

.NL

.NZ

.PRO

.SX

.TEL

.UK

  1. Choose “Disable” and hit the button for “Update Privacy Protection Status”.

Your patience will be test here because you will wait for at least one hour for the changes to be updated. If a Whois check status will be posted as “The domain’s contact information is visible and not privacy protected”, then you have already successfully disabled your domain’s privacy protection.

Take note that the same as in enabling privacy protection, the registry imposed that some domain extensions do not support privacy protections. These domain extensions are the following:

.IN (& third level .IN domains like .CO.IN, .WEB.IN)

.ASIA

.AU

.CA

.CN

.ES

.EU

.NL

.NZ

.PRO

.SX

.TEL

.UK

.US

For these domains extensions, Privacy Protection for your BigRock account would not be available.
