Protect Your

Website and Domain

Wix provides domain registration with built-in security. Get free web hosting on our reliable cloud servers and protection for your website and domain.

GDPR-Compliant

The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), came into effect on May 25, 2018 with the aim to protect the personal data of all European Union (EU) citizens. Wix is a GDPR-compliant platform and we’ve provided all Wix site owners with dedicated tools and information to help meet the requirements.

HTTPS Secured

Your Wix website has an SSL/TLS certificate—the latest security standard for the web. This lets visitors navigate your site and submit information securely via HTTPS. Sites that support HTTPS are much more likely to rank on Google, so it’s an SEO must-have. All payment pages on your site are also PCI compliant, so if you’re running a business, your clients can feel comfortable making purchases on your site.

Personal Information Private

Private Domain Registration with Wix

To protect your identity online, go with private domain registration. This ensures your name, address, email and phone number remain confidential, so you’re protected from identity theft, spam emails, domain hacking, online harassment and more.

Public Domain Registration with Wix

When you purchase a domain name, if you register the domain as public, your name and contact information will be visible to the public. If someone wants to find out who owns your domain, they’ll be able to access your name, address, email and phone number.

Please note: domain registration with Wix is in line with the latest GDPR requirements.
