Sorry, the link to the Mail.com contact form above accidentally picked up a ")" character. The correct link to use is: http://service.mail.com/shareFeedback.html

Mail.com is unrelated to world.com and email.com, correct?

doctor.com - Terms of Use
We have implemented commercially reasonable security measures to protect personal information
Umm.. that's not a true statement, you _could_ protect user's PII by having an SSL Certificate and using HTTPS protocol, however the domain does not have an SSL Cert - [url=http://www.sslshopper.com/ssl-checker.html?hostname=doctor.com t=_self]sslShopper.com[/url]
The PII collected is explained in the privacy policy:
Registered users
That personal information may include but is not limited to your name, email address, mailing address, telephone number, doctor office information, work and educational history, user name and password, as well as contact information.
The Contact Us page is a simple web to email form there is no local phone number, snail mail address, etc.(though the Terms page references New Jersey for legalities) whois registration is not hidden: http://bgp.he.net/dns/doctor.com#_whois

You can read more about the relationship between World Media Group and Mail.com at this link: http://wvw.worldmediagroupllc.com/
In short, two separate entities both use the domains, World Media Group develops them and partners with companies such as ours to build web properties, while Mail.com is a separate company with different ownership that's focused on email services.
As the operators of the www.doctor.com website, we unfortunately have no ability to control who gets a @doctor.com email address or what they do with it. This has resulted in a lot of people who've had poor experiences with users emailing them from @doctor.com email accounts thinking that these people are in some way affiliated with our website, which is not the case (although we certainly understand how people could find this confusing).

I'm sorry but every statement you've made here is factually incorrect.
We do have an SSL certificate which is used on all our account signup and login pages, for example: https://www.doctor.com/For_Providers and https://www.doctor.com/index.php?r=site/login as well as all of our administrative pages where users enter their information into the system.
Secondly, we have a toll-free phone number on our contact page (which I would think is preferable to a local number - we pay for it as a courtesy to our users) and our terms of use notes does, in fact, note a complete mailing address, not just the state of NJ. The full address can be found under section 12 (25 Mountainview Blvd. Suite 204, Basking Ridge, NJ 07920). We do not list this address on our Contact Us page because, like most large websites with millions of users, we prefer to receive general questions and end user inquiries via email or phone where our team is equipped to provide prompt responses and to track issues.

Re "The Doctor.com website and Doctor.com directory are NOT affiliated with @doctor.com email addresses in any way."
That statement doesn't look right at all. Surely the e-mail address using @doctor.com must be registered as associated with the doctor.com domain, and the Doctor.com website must also be registered as the doctor.com domain. You can't have two domains registered with the same domain name.

The MX records (i.e. what enables a domain name to function for email) for the Doctor.com domain name are used by a different company (Mail.com, as stated previously), whereas the Doctor.com domain name A Records, CNAMEs, etc (i.e. web-related domain settings) are controlled by World Media Group and licensed to Doctor.com to use for the website platform that we host there.
Please take a moment to actually visit www.doctor.com and look at the time and effort that's gone into the site as well as the tens of thousands of user reviews, claimed doctor profiles, etc, and it should be quite obvious that we have no interest in email spamming scams.

Perhaps you should have a closer look at [url=https://www.mywot.com/en/scorecard/worldmediagroupllc.com t=_self]World Media Group LLC[/url] and reconsider your association with them. You should also reconsider the notion that you own a domain that has no control over the associated e-mail domain name.
Either you are an unwitting victim or you know exactly what you are doing with your involvement with World Media Group LLC. If the former then you should move your site to a reputable hosting provider and take control of the domain name, and if the latter then your site deserves the poor ratings.

I wonder how many of those are genuine reviews.
