Why is domain privacy used?

You need to use domain privacy on newly registered domains in order to protect yourself from Whois email harvesting and subsequent spamming. If you do NOT use privacy on newly registered domains, the email address you use will be flooded with SPAM and many of the spammers will even call you to try to sell you something.

I cannot recommend domain privacy (whois protection) highly enough.

To protect your WHOIS details. So that spammers not able to fetch your email address.

You use Whois privacy when you want to hide your real information from many spammers on the internet

Domain privacy helps to hide the real information that is publicly shown in the WHOIS directory.
If data is not hidden there are chances of data stolen , malware , hacking attempt , etc.

Enabling domain privacy protection can effectively prevent personal information exposure and reduce spam and harassing calls. It can also improve security and prevent attacks by malicious users or hackers. In short, the main purpose of using privacy protection is to better maintain the privacy of individuals or companies and avoid unnecessary trouble.
