This isn't strictly necessary with us. The way our privacy works, the authorization email would be forwarded to you. It is, in general though, a good idea to turn off privacy before initializing a domain transfer. You can do this from within your account. We'll post the steps below:

How do I turn off my domain privacy?

Our domain privacy service replaces your personal contact information in the Whois database with ours, helping keep your information secure from spammers and scammers.

To turn off your domain privacy, please follow these steps:

Sign in to your Dynadot account.
Select "My Domains" from the left-side menu bar and click "Manage Domains" in the drop-down.
Check the box next to the domain name(s) whose privacy you wish to turn off and click on the "Action" button.
Choose "Privacy Settings" from the "Action" list.
Select "Off" in the drop-down menu.
Press the "Save Settings" button to turn off domain privacy.

Note: Whois information is made public based on the domain name holders consent and privacy settings. Without consent, no information will be publicly listed in the Whois Lookup. To consent, please check your privacy settings.

Please be aware that it may take a few days for the Whois database to be updated to your altered Whois information.
