Automatic Privacy for domains won at auction
Posted By nscd

I won a domain at auction, and it is still "Processing".  When this period ends and it is pushed to my account, I would prefer to not have my contact information appear in Whois, even for a short time.

What's the method for having privacy automatically applied the instant it pushes to my account?

It could take up to 24 hours for the WHOIS information to be changed to the private info after domain privacy is added.

Thanks.

Are you saying that I may have some time ("up to 24 hours") after the push to catch it and add privacy before my private info is made public?  

Or, are you saying that my private info could be in the public Whois for "up to 24 hours" even if I act immediately to add domain privacy?

There is no automatic way to add Domain Privacy to a domain that is pushed. Once the domain has been pushed to your account, you can add privacy by following these steps:

Please be aware that it could take up to 24 hours for the WHOIS information to be updated.
