Your WHOIS Data: Who’s Watching You?

The truth? Not all domain extensions protect you equally.

Your name, email, address, and phone stay hidden.

You control who contacts you and how.

Your domain becomes harder to hijack through social engineering.

The Safe Path: WHOIS Privacy Service

Even if your chosen TLD offers little native privacy, you can still protect yourself.
At NiceNIC, our WHOIS Privacy Service shields your personal and business data, replacing it with a generic proxy contact.

Advantages:
Works with hundreds of TLDs (including those with weak native privacy)
Keeps your real data off public records
Helps reduce spam and unsolicited contact
Adds an extra layer of security against domain theft

Want to See How Your TLD Ranks?
We’ve analyzed privacy policies for dozens of popular and niche ccTLDs — from .is and .to (full registry-level privacy) to .br and .ru (almost zero default protection).
Full Protection – TLDs like .is, .to, .ai hide all your details by default.
Partial Protection – Many GDPR-covered TLDs (.de, .fr, .nl, .uk, .eu) hide individual data but publish corporate records.
Little or No Protection – TLDs such as .br, .cm, .cc, .sc still display most WHOIS details unless you add privacy services.

So, we’ve compiled a WHOIS Privacy Comparison Table covering 50+ country-code and generic domains.
Check where your extension stands — and if you’re at risk.
