Re: [gnso-dow123] Proposed consensus recommendation on improving notification to Registered Name Holders

["Milton Mueller" <Mueller@xxxxxxx>]

We (NCUC) are still mulling this over. However, one simple editorial
change should be made. In section III.1.b you need to change it to read
"The purposes of collecting the Registered Name Holder, Technical
Contact and Administrative Contact data elements."

The language and context is very unclear. You are asking for a
statement as to the purpose of specific data elements. The first time I
read this, I thought you were asking what "purposes" the Registered Name
Holder, et al had in registering a domain name.

>(b) The purposes of the Registered Name Holder, technical, and
>administrative contacts

(c) Which of the contact data in (b) will be made public via the WHOIS
service in (a).


(2) ICANN must provide on its website information on industry best
practice to meet the obligation in (1) above, and how to make the
information available to the Registered Name Holder through means in
addition to the registration agreement (e.g as part of the
registration
process, or via a privacy policy).

The proposed recommendation will ensure that Registered Name Holders
provide contact information that is appropriate for public access and
sufficient for third parties to contact them in accordance with the
purposes of the WHOIS service.   The purposes will be refined as part
of
the current WHOIS task force work.   Information (which may include
Personal Data) that can be used for authentication and billing
purposes
will be separately provided to registrars.
