Register your domain name privately. Your name and address stay hidden in the WHOIS database, while you remain the full owner and administrator.
Every domain registration requires a name, address and email address. For businesses these are often retrievable via the WHOIS database and the Dutch Chamber of Commerce. For individuals, personal data has largely been shielded since the GDPR (2018) — but private registration gives you full certainty.
With privacy protect your details are replaced by those of "Anoniem Domein". To the outside world the domain appears registered under a neutral name, while internally you are simply the only administrator and owner.
You can change DNS records, renew the domain, transfer it or switch privacy protect off again at any time. Nothing about your ownership or control changes.
You switch on privacy protect right at checkout. No technical knowledge needed.
Check whether your preferred domain name is available. Choose from more than 100 extensions, from .nl and .com to .eu, .be and .de.
During checkout you tick privacy protect. Right on the order form, with no extra steps or separate form.
After registration the domain is active right away with privacy protect. In WHOIS, "Anoniem Domein" appears instead of your details.
Privacy protect adds protection without taking anything away from your control or ownership.
Name, address and email are not visible in the public WHOIS database. Nobody can find them through a domain lookup.
From your account panel you switch privacy protect on or off whenever you like. The change is usually visible in WHOIS within a few hours.
Privacy protect changes nothing about who owns the domain. You keep full control over the domain, DNS, renewal and transfer.
By not showing your details publicly you limit the unnecessary spread of personal data, in line with the GDPR principle of data minimisation.
WHOIS data is regularly used by parties who approach domain owners. Privacy protect stops your contact details being collected this way.
€4.99 per year for all extensions. No hidden costs, no separate subscription structures. Just one clear annual price.
