Route 52 - turn off privacy

Question

My Bank needs to see ownership details for a domain before  approving a payment gateway.

I turned of privacy protection for this domain in route53, but 3 days later whois is still showing REDACTED FOR PRIVACY.

Is 3 days long enough for propagation?

Do I need to do something else?

I have tried different browsers and cleared cache.

Answer

Hi Kymberly,

According to the [documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/Route53/latest/DeveloperGuide/domain-privacy-protection.html), If you choose to disable privacy protection, you must disable it for all contacts for a domain.
Please double-check that you have disabled privacy protection for all the contacts for your domain.

AFAIK, the propagation time is anywhere between 24-48 hours. Hope this helps.

Answer

Thanks Mukul

OWNER, ADMIN TECH AND BILL all have privacy protection off

Maybe the propagation processer took the weekend off.

I guess we just have to keep checking.

Answer

It seems that .org domains do not have the option to turn off privacy for whois. overwriting any console settings. This is now a serious problem
