ID Protect - Shielding Your Privacy
Your privacy is the utmost importance to us and we want to make your website hosting is simple and hassle free. We also believe we have an ethical obligation to inform you how your private contact information is displayed for anyone to see.
Did you know that current domain regulations require that your private contact information be included in a publicly accessible database known as WhoIs? This information is available to anyone who wants to see it. This means that your private information is displayed and made available to anyone who wants to see it, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. You can see for yourself at http://www.domaintools.com.
We offer a special service called ID Protect. It works in the same way as having your phone number "unlisted." It ensures that your private contact information is protected by the "Domain Privacy Protection Service". You can protect your private WhoIs information by switching your "public" domain registration to a "private" unlisted registration through ID Protect.
How Does ID Protect Work?
Shielding your private information
Your private contact information is not exposed. It is held in confidentiality and protected by the Domain Privacy Protection Service. Their contact information is displayed to provide you with the highest level of protection against spammers and identity theft.
Dynamic eMail System which stops spammers dead in their tracks
Without ID Protect, spammers can obtain your email address from harvesting and then use it for spamming purposes and redistribution to marketing firms. Your email address can stay on file with various spammers and marketing firms for years. Due to the dynamic email system, your visible email address is constantly changing, so while it is being harvested and redistributed, it will change and the previous address will no longer work for the spammer. The Domain Privacy Protection Service secures and maintains your real email address on file so you receive important information regarding your domain.
Offering you complete control
You retain full legal ownership and control over your domain name. You can sell, renew, transfer and change settings to your domain name just the same as before. Your domain control panel provides you real-time access to easily manage your domain name.
We offer this service for a low $8.95 a year. Just submit a Ticket to add ID Protect to your domain name managed by Yellow Dandelions. If you add ID Protect to an existing domain it is only valid until the domains expire date. Then it will be renewed annually thereafter.
