You now have the option of activating Hostpoint Domain Shield for your domains. Domain Shield includes of the features domain loss protection, domain misuse protection (Domain Guard) and domain data protection (Domain Privacy).
With domain loss protection, you remain the rightful owner of your domain, even in the event that the renewal fee for your domain is not paid on time. Without loss protection, you risk losing your domain name, which can severely damage your image.
Our domain misuse protection service (Domain Guard) effectively protects your domain names against unauthorized or faulty changes. It can also prevent accidental or incorrect domain settings.
Our domain data protection service (Domain Privacy) safeguards your personal data. We keep it securely here in Switzerland and do not pass on this data to third parties (including other domain registries).
