What Is WHOIS Domain Proxy?

Whenever you register a domain, your contact information—including your name, email address, and phone number—is typically made publicly accessible via the WHOIS database. While this transparency has its benefits, it can also expose you to spam, phishing attempts, and other privacy risks.

Our WHOIS Domain Proxy service solves this problem by keeping your personal information private. Instead of displaying your details, the proxy service will display generic, secure contact information managed by Gentlent.

How Does It Work?

  • Privacy Protection: Your personal contact details are replaced with proxy information, shielding them from prying eyes.
  • Email Forwarding: Any emails sent to your domain's public WHOIS address will be forwarded directly to your original email address, ensuring you don’t miss important messages.
  • Internal Safety Features: Our system includes safeguards to protect you from unwanted or malicious communications.

Why Use WHOIS Domain Proxy?

  • Enhanced Privacy: Protect yourself from spammers, scammers, and unwanted solicitations.
  • Seamless Communication: Stay accessible via email without exposing your actual email address.
  • Peace of Mind: Focus on building your digital presence, knowing that your personal details are safe.

How to Get Started

Activating the WHOIS Domain Proxy feature is simple. Just log in to your Gentlent account, select the domain you want to protect, and enable the proxy service. It’s that easy to secure your information and enjoy hassle-free privacy. In the near feature, we'll start to roll out domain privacy by default for existing and new customers.

At Gentlent, your safety and satisfaction are our top priorities. We’re proud to offer this feature as part of our ongoing commitment to empowering you with secure, reliable, and user-friendly domain services.
