Updating Contact Information for Domain Names with Privacy
When you add Private Registration to your domain names, Domains By Proxy® (DBP) hides your personal contact information from the public. In other words, DBP's contact information replaces your personal contact information in the Whois database.
In your DBP account, you can update the your personal contact information and the underlying contact information for your domain names. You can have the same contact information for every domain name, or you can update the contact information for each domain name individually. When you update contact information in your DBP account, it remains hidden from the public.
You can also update your email forwarding preferences to determine how DBP sends information to you.
