You don't have to use an actual person as contact; that's what role accounts are for. "Domain Admin <[email protected]>" should not be considered private information. > Because, you don't want people calling these phones, about spam, about > support cases, about things that SHOULD be taken through their ticket system. I don't expect private phone numbers in whois, but I support having correct organization names. > You can still find their details on their official website > https://www.mailgun.com/contact/ > With a address to their office even. A quick look on their website gives me an office location, but not even a company name. Is it "Mailgun"? "mailgun by sinch"? Googling around it seems to be "Mailgun Technologies, Inc." -- Why do they hide this information from their official website (as well as whois)? And: is the data on their website verified in any way? I could register mailgun.zip and point a contact page to Mailgun's address. Would any hosting provider shut down a website for providing wrong information?
