Site info

[rpoz11]

I own a website domain name, actually 2, and I just to my amazement found out that our personal info is available to anyone over the internet!
This scares me!
Has anyone any thoughts about this???

Do you mean at www.whois.net (http://www.whois.net)?

That site has been available forever...it seems...

It's cool to use if you can only remember a portion of a website name...

I located my info thru a different site....

Would think that there would be some ID protection!
Seems to bother me.
I havent much to hide , but...
Well, Bush isnt a popular guy lately looking into us...

<font color="blue">When you open a Domain Name there should be an option to 'hide' your info.
I have some with GoDaddy (http://godaddy.com) &amp; if you look at the list it will come up with 'their' address, not yours.</font>

Policy: 9. Fierce protection of your personal information.
We do our best to prevent your data from being "mined." And unlike some of our competitors
who will happily sell your information to anyone for a price, we will never under any circumstance
make it available to third parties, unless legally required to do so.

(Please do understand, though,that information in the Whois database is public domain.
We do everything possible to prevent screen access to it, but under certain circumstances it can be obtained.)

I have recieved a reply from the staff at the site and I inquired on how to protect my personal info...
We shall see what his response will be!
I am sure there is something available!
