RE: [gnso-dow123] Note to council on Notice recommendation

["Fares, David" <DFares@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Colleagues,

 

I remain somewhat confused by this discussion.  As noted by Bruce and as
mentioned on the call yesterday, notice is already a requirement in the RAA.
Moreover, "notice" is a general principle in every set of international
guidelines and self-regulatory and legal/regulatory principles related to
privacy.  With this in mind, is it not better that the notice be clear and
conspicuous so that registrants fully understand the uses of the data that
they submit as part of their registration?  

 

Best regards,

David

Jordyn:

In light of the discussion today, I think we should go forward with this
letter to the Council as we agreed.  I would like to withdraw my suggestion
regarding delaying or tabling the recommendation.  I think it would be best
to return this item to the Task Force for clearer commentary on the intent
of the task force (and evaluation of impact).

Kathy

Dear Bruce:

In discussions of the Whois TF this week, a concern was raised that  
the current proposal relating to improving notice to registrants  
regarding the use of their contact details in the Whois system may be  
viewed as a waiver of registrants privacy rights.  It was not the  
intent of the task force that the recommendation act as any sort of  
waiver, but this was not an issue that we considered during the work  
of the task force.  We do believe that this is an important issue,  
however, and believe that it would be premature for the Council to  
adopt the policy recommendations without considering it.  As a  
result, I am writing to request that the Council either:

a) Refer the recommendation back to the Task Force for further  
consideration of this specific issue; alternatively, the Council may  
want to consider this specific issue itself, or
