Gandi user here. After I read your comment I tried to enable this but it doesn't work.

When I change whois privacy to enabled and press save it just says "Unable to update the contact."

This happens both with my .com and my .net domain.

Weird; I have active domains where it's working. Given it requires a contact info update, could be an unrelated bug. I'd definitely file a ticket.
