[Gnso-rds-pdp-privacy] Summaries of Relevant Section from International Working Group on Data Protection in Telecommunications and Media Documents - Privacy

[Farell Folly]

Hello All,

This is, in attach, my summary of the Comment on the WHOIS Review Team
Report by the SSAC. The main thing to note is the main unsolved problem is
the purpose of the registration data, which is an issue covered by another
subgroup. However, understanding the purpose is good to know who should
access, why to access and how protection can  be done.

I apologize in advance for the typos.. I am not English native speaker nor
a full bilingual, but I've tried my best.

Can we have a list of the remaining to docs to summarize ?

> The necessity to protect individuals has been recognised for more than
> twenty years in the existing national data protection regimes as well as in
> the international community (e.g. in the OECD guidelines on Privacy of
> 1980, the Council of Europe Convention No. 108, and, more recently, the
> Directive 95/46/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 24
> October 1995 on the protection of individuals with regard to the processing
> of personal data and on the free movement of such data). These regulations
> outline similar basic principles on the fair processing of personal
> information. Among these principles are the obligation to inform the data
> subjects about the processing of their personal data, the principle of
> limiting the collection and use of personal data to what is essential to
> the purpose specified and protection against unauthorised secondary uses.
> At the same time, any secondary use incompatible with the original purpose
> specified (e.g. marketing) should be based on the data subject´s informed
> consent. In this respect the level of privacy guaranteed by the present RAA
> (cf. point II.F.6.f) is not sufficient.
>
> The Working Group stresses that any registrar operating within the
> jurisdiction of existing data protection laws and any national domain name
> registration procedures are subject to the existing national data
> protection and privacy legislation and to the control by the existing
> national Data Protection and Privacy Commissioners.
>
>
> *Common Position relating to Reverse Directories*
>
> It is in any case necessary to endow the persons with the right to be
> informed by their provider of telephone or e-mail service, at the time of
> the collection of data concerning them, or if they have already subscribed,
> by a specific means of information, of the existence of services of reverse
> search and - if express consent is not required - of their right to object,
> free of charge, to such a search.

>
>  The Working Party finds the proposed new requirement to annually
> re-verify both the telephone number and the e-mail address and publish
> these contact details in the publicly accessible WHOIS database excessive
> and therefore unlawful. Because ICANN is not addressing the root of the
> problem, the proposed solution is a disproportionate infringement of the
> right to protection of personal data.
