how does this compare to orange website?
It seems that orangewebsite proposes the classic "private whois" where they hide your basic info and insert an email address that redirect to you. Now it's hard to know how easily they reveal the info to someone who calls or send a letter, but it seems hosters usually comply to anybody.
In njalla, your are not the owner, so there's nothing to reveal. Again, if you do something like hosting child abuse videos, they will help the authorities in that case. I'd suggest checking FAQ of hosters to get a feel of what they actually do for privacy, not just reading the claims on main pages.
Side note; as far as I know for some TLD it is forbidden to hide the info, in which case you're out of luck unless you're not the owner of the domain
whats TLD?
