Cloudflare WHOIS privacy, often referred to as Universal WHOIS Privacy, acts as a proxy for your domain's registration information. When someone performs a WHOIS lookup, instead of seeing your personal contact details (name, address, email, phone), they will see Cloudflare's anonymized contact information. This effectively shields your private data from public view.
