When you check whether a domain name is free, the name you type is sent to us, and from our servers to our registrar (Porkbun) or to the public registry service for that extension (for example Nominet for .uk) to see if it is registered. Your name, email address or other details are not sent to the registry.
What we collect when you send a request

- What you need (domain, hosting, web design), the domain name you asked about, and anything you write in the message box.
- A record that you ticked the privacy box, and when.
