Yes, where the domain extension supports it. Open the domain under Domains > My Domains > Manage and enable ID Protection in the addons section.
What it actually does
Domain registrations require contact details, and for many extensions those details are publicly queryable. Privacy replaces your name, address, phone number and email in the public record with the privacy service's own, while the real details stay on file with the registrar.
Why it is worth having
Unprotected registrant details are harvested at scale. The predictable results are spam to the registrant address, cold calls, and fake "domain renewal" invoices from companies that are not your registrar and are hoping you will not check. Publishing a home address, which many small businesses effectively do, is a separate concern of its own.
It also removes a useful ingredient from targeted attacks. A convincing phishing message is much easier to write when the attacker knows the registrant's name and email.
Where it does not apply
Some country-code extensions do not offer privacy, and some publish reduced details by default so the option is unnecessary. The domain's management page will tell you which applies.
Turn it off temporarily for a transfer
Some registrars will not release an authorisation code, or will send it to an address you cannot read, while privacy is active. If you are transferring a domain, disable privacy first and re-enable it once the transfer completes. The article on transferring a domain covers the full sequence.
What it does not do
Privacy hides your details from public lookups. It does not make the registration anonymous — the registrar still holds your real details and will disclose them where legally required. It is protection against harvesting and nuisance, not a shield.
Keep the real details accurate anyway
The registrant address underneath the privacy service is where transfer approvals and expiry notices go. If it is a mailbox nobody reads, privacy has hidden a problem rather than solved one. Check it once a year along with the rest of your recovery details.
