[[Domain Privacy]] is a service provided by [[registrars]] that prevents registrants' information from being listed in the [[WHOIS]] database. Registrars most commonly provide anonymity to the registrant by registering domains by proxy, listing the companies details in the WHOIS and providing a forwarding service, satisfying ICANN's requirement that each registered domain provides contact information, including name, address, email, phone numbers and administrative and technical contents.  
'''[[.build]]''' is a new [[TLD]] in [[ICANN]]'s [[New gTLD Program]]. [[Plan Bee LLC]] was the only applicant for the TLD.  [[Minardos Group]] the construction company was an investor and had also applied for [[.construction]] and [[.expert]]. The proposed application succeeded and was delegated to the [[Root Zone]] on 18 January 2014. [[ARI Registry Services]] provide back-end support. On 07 November 2013, [[Plan Bee LLC]] received a [[Registry Agreement]] signed by [[ICANN]] for .build after passing all the required processes needed to become a [[Registry Operator]] for the string


[[Plan Bee LLC]] established partnerships with industry leaders, such as Associated General Contractors of America (AGC) and American Subcontractors Association (ASA), in addition to working closely with the Blue Book Network.
Recently, the issue of Domain Privacy policy has become hotly contested, primarily concerning when privacy and proxy services are allowed to be used. Certain stakeholders such as the law enforcement community, maintain that domains used for commercial transactions should be prohibited from using domain privacy services. Others in the ICANN community are vehemently opposed to this proposal, citing the importance of privacy for law-abiding internet users.
