      .UK Registrants who are non-trading individuals (those who do not use or plan to use their domain name for business, trade [including registration of domain names for monetization purposes] or professional transactions) can choose to opt out of having their Contact Details displayed in the Whois lookup.

      This option can be enabled by the Registrant from within his Nominet control panel.

    • <#end dotuk#><#start domus#>

    • .US

    • <#end domus#>

  • <#end dotco#>

• If you are transferring away your domain name from <%SFNB_RESE123LLER_BRA123ND_NAME%>, you need to first disable Privacy Protection and then place a Transfer request at the Registrar of your choice.

• Depending upon whether the Privacy Protection feature is available for a TLD or not, the Order Details view of your domain name may or may not display the Privacy Protection status, under Order Information.

  If Privacy Protection is available for your domain name, then you would see the following status:

  • Privacy Protection: Enabled

    This indicates that the Privacy Protection feature has been turned on for your domain name and your personal Contact Details are not being displayed in the Whois of your domain name.

  • Privacy Protection: Disabled

    This indicates that the Privacy Protection feature has been turned off for your domain name and your personal Contact Details are being displayed in the Whois of your domain name.

• If the domain name is Locked by <%SFNB_RESE123LLER_BRA123ND_NAME%>, it needs to be first Unlocked by <%SFNB_RESE123LLER_BRA123ND_NAME%>, before you can proceed with the Bulk Privacy Protection.

• <#start reseller#>

• If the domain name is Locked by you, you may proceed with the Bulk Privacy Protection without Unlocking it.

• <#end reseller#>

• If the domain name is Suspended by <%SFNB_RESE123LLER_BRA123ND_NAME%>, it needs to be first Unsuspended, before you can proceed with the Bulk Privacy Protection.

  <#start reseller#>
