Although both of the services sound very similar, there is one substantial difference between those. By using the free GDPR Domain Privacy service, only our EU customers can actually have their personal information hidden. Furthermore, hiding personal information does not mean that our customers will be able to receive emails on the Administrative and Technical contact emails since those will be hidden upon a WHOIS search. However, by purchasing our Privacy Protection addon service, not only the personal information for all domain contacts will be hidden, but also any incoming emails to any of these will be forwarded by us accordingly.
