How does Domain Privacy work?

When you enable the Doma

in Privacy service for a domain, it puts the Withheldforprivacy.com protected information to the public instead of your contact details to protect you from potential spam and even identity theft.
Your personal email address will be replaced with a unique Withheldforprivacy.com one (e.g., 35180ba032214a9387fe517f46b6037d.protect@withheldforprivacy.com), and every email sent to this email address will be forwarded to your Registrant email address.  To enhance online presence privacy, you also have an option to schedule the change of your Withheldforprivacy.com email address every few days. This should provide you with additional protection from spam as mail harvested from Whois becomes invalid in a few days.
