When you sign up for webhosting is your email displayed publicly in any record?

I tend to separate some of my websites not only by hosting plans but also by hosting accounts (if from the same provider), because I was always under the impression the hosting account email is displayed publicly somewhere such as SOA record.

In this scenario, I don't like my sites being all tied together by a single email. However, having separate hosting accounts from a single provider is quite inconvenient and bothersome.

So I'm wondering if the email is actually shown publicly in some record or is only between you and the webhost?

Hello!

There is no user email associated with any record that could be searched. The only thing that can be searched from any records would be where your website content and email is being hosted from. Specifically, the SOA record contains administrative information about the DNS zone. So if your'e currently using a web host provider this would not pertain to you.

The only information of yours that would be public is the WHOIS information for any domain names that may be registered under you and has you personal information listed. But this is typically private if you have domain privacy from the domain registrar.
