The thrust of the question is not if a legal person can consent to publication; the question is
asking whether the risk CPs are already facing in terms of how they deal with consent is in any way different in magnitude with the publishing the info of legal persons. This is a comparison question – is the risk comparable? We want to make sure that a legal
registrant is not somehow providing personal information that is not its own. The EPDB has provided guidance and advice and has said that as we evaluate these policies, we should clearly instruct legal persons to avoid providing personal information of other
people. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">This is a policy question and not something our outside counsel can help with. We already have information on the challenges, risks, and how to
obtain consent especially in the tricky subject of third-party consent. This is more appropriate to be discussed in plenary.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">The risk scenario is now shifted given the NIS2 directive. In particular with respect to legal v. natural, there will be a requirement in European
law that contracted parties make this distinction. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">NIS2 does have language that would play into this quite directly, we’re still talking about a period of 18 months until it’s agreed to. There will
be a few years before NIS2 comes into play. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Disagree with this perspective. The ICANN community was behind the eight ball in updating WHOIS policy b/c of GDP, and it would be a mistake to
ignore an impending regulation again. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">It’s not possible to make the differentiation by looking at what type of person it is. It is hard to make policies based on laws that might come
to pass. Cannot implement something that is still subject to change, since this is a directive not a regulation.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">There is nothing wrong anticipating new developments in the legal framework. The lesson to be learned post-GDPR is that we should anticipate developments
and that is why this question is relevant if we want to make policy on the basis of good analysis.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Cannot ascertain legal risks until you see how the directive will be implemented. There is a difference b/w watching and blowing a legal budget
when things are still in play. A good exercise to go through would be not that we are finally addressing legal v. natural, we need to do some risk assessment on what we’re doing to drive criminal activity. This risk assessment is not up to the legal committee
to decide.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Chair proposal: clear that some of us interpret the question somewhat differently. Small group: Laureen, Hadia, Volker and Becky to further work
on this question. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Question 2:
<i>Do the measures required by the Transparency and Fairness Principles (i.e., explaining that if the registrant identifies as a legal person then their data will be published) contribute to mitigating the liability risk of an inaccurate designation? Note advice
given in Technical Contacts memo (1/22/19 at ¶ 11 “registrars will need to provide notice to the technical contact within the earlier of one month or first communication with the data subject.”</i></span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">There are already principles in place that would mitigate the liability risk. The advice from B&B talks about explaining the risks if you are a
legal person; B&B technical contacts memo also discusses giving notice to those who may have their info published.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Not entirely certain how this question is different than the technical contacts memo. That memo mentions seeking confirmation from someone who
may not be the registrant.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">This question is a cart before the horse issue b/c it presumes certain policy decisions that have not been made. If you determine that legal entity
= publication, you suddenly create an issue for small legal entities that have the same data as their company and might result in other legal risks. Need to determine what this differentiation would mean in policy before asking this question.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">There is a policy question about automatic publication is if someone is designated as a legal person. This question has been clearly answered in
the legal v. natural memo. Do we already have the answer to this, which is – yes, this is one thing that could help.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">The first legal v. natural memo addresses this question – this is one way to mitigate risk. This comes down to addressing this question as a plenary.
(paragraph 18 in particular)</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">This question needs refining – agree that these are already identified as mitigating the risk. Perhaps the better question is: what is the magnitude
of the risk if you follow the measures proposed by B&B – is it a de minimis risk or is it a significant risk? Would be helpful to get more pinpointed guidance on the magnitude of the risk.</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Action: Laureen to refine question 2 to focus on the magnitude of the risk.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Question 3:
<i>Legal Memo 1, #25 implies that it is sufficient to send a confirmation email explaining in clear detail the implication of the Legal/Natural determination that the Registrar has made. There is no mention that this confirmation message needs to be responded
to. Phase 2 Memo #18, although on a somewhat different topic, implies a positive response is needed. Please provide clarity as to how lack of response can be interpreted. Does the situation change if paper mail is used? Note that in both cases, the registrant
has an obligation to have provided accurate contact details.</i></span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Question should be rephrased. The importance of this question: in order to approve the accuracy of self-identification, B&B suggested sending a
confirmation email to the registrant and technical contact. </span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Given that this is the consequence, does that suffice as sufficient for this requirement? For the practicality, it is not hard to implement something
like that. Must first define the consequence, and until this homework is completed, it’s too early to ask a question.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Suggest rephrasing the question and bring it back again and meanwhile we can all think about the consequences.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Is the question really – can you rely on just this notice or do you need affirmative consent from an individual whose contact info is disclosed
in the registration of a legal person?</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Question: if we send out emails to individuals involved in a domain name registration and assume a response to the notification is consent to publication,
isn’t coupling consent with something else? This is a non-starter b/c we would unduly combine consent with something else – this would mean it would be coupled, and therefore not freely given.
</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">Not looking for providing consent with this – it’s a confirmation email, the response would be acknowledgement</span><o:p></o:p></li><li class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in;mso-list:l3 level2 lfo2"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:black">If there is no consequence to making this differentiation, it is legal, but as soon as you attach a consequence (such as publication), the risk
becomes higher, and this is a plenary discussion.</span><o:p></o:p></li></ul>
