The following domain extensions (TLDs) offer privacy protection directly through the registry (i.e., registry-based WHOIS privacy), meaning WHOIS data is automatically redacted or replaced at the registry level, not just by the registrar:

gTLDs (Generic Top-Level Domains) with Built-in Registry Privacy

TLD	Registry	Notes
`.xyz`	XYZ Registry	WHOIS info is redacted by default
`.online`	Radix Registry	Automatic privacy at registry level
`.site`	Radix Registry	WHOIS hidden by default
`.tech`	Radix Registry	Includes privacy by default
`.store`	Radix Registry	WHOIS data not public
`.space`	Radix Registry	Comes with registry-level redaction
`.website`	Radix Registry	Automatic WHOIS protection
`.fun`	Radix Registry	Privacy included

ccTLDs (Country Code Top-Level Domains) with Registry-Based Privacy

TLD	Country/Region	Notes
`.ca`	Canada	WHOIS privacy for individuals by default
`.eu`	European Union	Natural persons have redacted WHOIS
`.uk`	United Kingdom	Individual data redacted at registry level
`.fr`	France	WHOIS privacy for individuals via AFNIC

? Notes:

For many new gTLDs, privacy is often registry-level even if a registrar offers its own layer.
For ccTLDs, privacy rules often vary between individuals and organisations.
Registrars may still offer additional WHOIS privacy (proxy services) even if the registry doesn’t.
