No-Bullshit Domain Privacy
Here's exactly how domain ownership by proxy works at K4X, explained simply.
You Own It. We Just Hold the Paper.
When you register a domain through K4X, you are the owner. Period. We act as a proxy entity, meaning our information appears in public WHOIS records instead of yours.
Think of it like having a company hold property on your behalf - you make all the decisions, you get all the benefits, but your name isn't on the public record.

What We Handle
The only thing that goes through us is the WHOIS information - the public record that shows who "owns" a domain. This includes:
- Registrant Name (K4X Privacy Proxy)
- Contact Email (our privacy email)
- Address & Phone (our business address)
This protects you from spam, harassment, and people looking up your personal information through WHOIS lookups.
Our Philosophy
We're not the internet police.
It's not our job to decide what should or shouldn't be on the internet. We don't monitor, filter, or make judgments about what you do with your domain.
Your privacy is your right. The WHOIS system was designed in an era before spam, stalking, and data harvesting became major concerns. Privacy protection isn't about hiding wrongdoing - it's about exercising basic digital hygiene.
You pay for the domain. You own the domain. We just keep your name off the public record.
Your Transfer Rights
Want to leave K4X? No problem. You can request your domain's authorization code (EPP code) at any time through a support ticket. We'll provide it promptly so you can transfer to any registrar of your choice.
Your domain is yours. We're just the entity on paper.
