Is it fine to mail the Associate Editor in his personal email provided in his homepage? Is it okay to mail an Associate Editor in his personal e-mail?


I have submitted a manuscript in a journal and I want to know the status of my manuscript.

The publisher of my journal is "World Scientific".
There is no option to mail the Associate Editor of the journal to whom I have assigned my manuscript.
Neither is any email address of the Associate Editor provided in the Journal Hoempage.Only his name and affiliation has been given.

Also there is only two templates of email address provided which are 
1.Extending Submission Deadline.
2.Extending Revision Deadline.

There is no template to ask about the status of the manuscript.

Is it fine to mail the Associate Editor in his personal email provided in his homepage?

Kindly comment.
I would avoid doing that, except as a last resort. The person is likely to be confused (best) or offended (bad). Try to work first through the journal itself. 

But also, it often takes quite a while for information about progress to filter through the system and it often takes quite a while for reviews themselves to be conducted. 

If it just "wanting to know" for informational purposes, I recommend patience. If it is "needing to know" for some other purpose then you can press it, but, again, go to personal accounts only as a last resort.

You could, of course, ask the journal itself how to contact the editor and whether it is appropriate for your needs.
