An automatic application of the Individual Registrant Privacy Option to all individual registrants would cover those individual registrants who use their domain name for significant trade purposes. Those who use their domain name in this way should not be able to the Individual Registrant Privacy Option. Many domain names are registered in the name of individuals but used for business or trading – these activities carry with them a lesser need for the Individual Registrant Privacy Option when it comes to display of contact information. We’re also aware that there are some individual registrants who still want all their information publicly displayed. As such, the IRPO is an opt-in system.
