What are the implications of a registrant registering through what is known as a proxy company instead of using his/her own information?

Updated 5 May, 2020

When a registrant registers a domain name under the top-level domain .se or .nu, the Registration terms and conditions are approved by said registrant. The terms and conditions stipulate that the registrant is obligated to provide complete contact information and regularly inform the registrar of any changes. If the registrant opts to use a “proxy company,” said company becomes the registrant of the domain name. The agreement is between The Swedish Internet Foundation and the proxy company, not with the registrant and not with any company that in turn has an agreement with the proxy company.
