Pretty standard to request that bots put contact information for their operator into the User-Agent header. Often that's a URL, but email is fine too.
I don't think it's necessarily wrong for Claude to be doing this, but uh... yeah, it should be asking first, and giving the user the opportunity to choose which address is exposed.
