>> Collection                       Proportionality and purpose specification                     Data minimisation, Data quality
>> Storage                   Accountability, Security measures, Sensitive data               Confidentiality, Encryption, Pseudonomisation
>> Sharing and processing Lawfulness and fairness, Consent, Right of access  Data access control, Data leakage prevention
>> Deletion                               Openness, Right to erasure                                        Retention, Archival, Erasure
>> 
>> 
>> If such principles are not respected, ICANN will be liable. Consumers don't need to have all the thin data when making a query. This could protect them and enable them to have access to the RDS without raising much opposition.  
>> 
>> Now, we could discuss the possibility for broader query types. These principles would still apply, but would be contextualized in order to take into account new sets of parameters for each broader query. By increasing granularity as much as possible, while applying these aformentioned principles, we just might find a way to accomodate everyone.

>>> Thin data must be proportionate to the query, be useful for that particular query. All and any other thin data foreign to this query should not be shared. This principle potentially avoids having to resort to 'legitimate purposes' which cannot be verified for unauthenticated access.
