As you can tell this is the first time I've had a web host. I have no idea why my private info is readily available and mind it very much. I'd like for this info not to be available to anyone and I'm sure that's understandable.

Is this for real? Should I sign up for this added feature?

Thanks!

Yes most registrars offer privacy protection and it is indeed 'for real'. If you don't want your details publicly available then you should sign up for it
