I bought domain + hosting for personal use and also for business from hostgator. After than I am receiving multiple calls everyday and huge emails to ask if I am interested for website from India. Hostgator will sale your personal/business information and you will be spammed. BE CAREFUL
Update:
We reached out to Anjan repeatedly by phone and email and have received no response to our attempts at resolution. As a courtesy we gave the customer a credit in the amount that it would cost them to purchase domain privacy so that they can stop being spammed by people who are accessing their contact info via a simple "whois lookup". We hope that Anjan will respond to one of our emails or will go into their dashboard and purchase the domain privacy. Thanks.

Hi Anjan,
We DO NOT sell your personal information. That would be violation of our own privacy policy, plus many laws. It sounds like what happened in your case is that you didn't obtain Domain Privacy when you signed up for service, and that would expose your contact information for anyone to see by doing a simple "whois" look-up. We'd be happy to help get your domain secured with Domain Privacy. We are going to send you a private message requesting more information so that we can help to make things right for you. Thanks so much.
