I would have left this very comment if you hadn&#x27;t beaten me to it. :)<p>Gandi is <i>very</i> up-front about every aspect of their services. I found out that Gandi&#x27;s whois privacy doesn&#x27;t hide the name you provide as the registrant <i>long</i> before I entered my credit card details to provide payment information.<p>Their whois privacy is structured in this way because for many (all?) TLDs ICANN <i>requires</i> that the entity listed as the registrant be the <i>actual</i> owner of the registered domain.
