    <p>Hi Brian,</p>
    <p>this is actually a funny argument you are trying to make here.
      You are essentially saying registrants are getting their rights
      violated by themselves, since they are the ones providing the data
      in the first place. I would be very intrigued to see how the data
      subject feeling violated this way would make this argument in
      court.</p>
    <p>The only correct way to understand this right to accuracy is that
      it relates to the right of correction, which means that the
      processor is not entitled to change the data, must store the data
      provided correctly and update it if necessary or requested by the
      data subject. <br>
    </p>
    <p>It is not the role of the processor or controller under the GDPR
      to tell the data subject to correct the data they themselves
      provided. If anything, such a requirement may be a business
      consideration, but it is not something flowing out of the GDPR. <br>
    </p>
    <p>Best,</p>
    <p>Volker<br>

        <p class="MsoNormal">Hi all, <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">I boil this down to a couple key facts:<o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">1) Data subjects have a right to data
          accuracy under GDPR, and 2) the data analysis shows that
          they’re not getting it in today’s registration data system
          (56% is a failing score by any measure, and especially in the
          context of fundamental rights). So accuracy falls squarely
          within the context of this EPDP. <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">As it pertains to third parties, I suppose
          it’s fair to distinguish between a data subject’s _<i>right</i>_
          and a third party’s _<i>need</i>_ for accurate data, but
          third-party needs are also provided for under GDPR, so the
          distinction is irrelevant as to whether they’re in scope for
          this EPDP. For example, an EBERO may not have an explicit,
          GDPR-given right to registration data, but the EBERO needs
          accurate data in order to allocate the domain name to its
          rightful owner when a registry implodes. This processing might
          be on a 6.1(a),(b),(e), or other basis; regardless, it’s a
          GDPR-compliant processing need. A phishing victim may not have
          an explicit, GDPR-given right to registration data, but EU
          case law is clear that pursuit of a legal claim wins the
          6.1(f) test over privacy interests, so the victim has a
          GDPR-compliant processing need for accurate data to know who
          to name as defendant and where to file the lawsuit.  <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">So, accuracy and third-party needs are both
          in scope. <o:p></o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
        <p class="MsoNormal">I’m happy to answer any questions and/or
          work with the legal committee to prioritize any questions to
          the Birdies as the EPDP team deems prudent.
