Whois info should be available for all businesses under EU law, under the European Directive on Electronic Commerce. In the EU, privacy is only for individuals. If you're in business, the commercial rules apply:[1]
Member States shall ensure that the service provider shall render easily, directly and permanently accessible to the recipients of the service and competent authorities, at least the following information: (a) the name of the service provider, (b) the geographic address at which the service provider is established, (c) the details of the service provider, including his electronic mail address, which allow him to be contacted rapidly and communicated with in a direct and effective manner.
A "service provider" is basically anyone with a commercial web site. See (17) and (18) in [1] for the detailed definition.
