Hi Rafik, 

There is an issue here, OCTO does not exist from the legal perspective at all (outside of internal ICANN management procedures,
which are not important here, because the responsibility for what ICANN Org does with the personal data is on the whole organisation, 
and not limited to one of the departments, which is not an independent organisation).
 
OCTO is not in ICANN bylaws or California law , it can not be found in ICANN policies or contracts with CPH, and so far 
I do not see any value in adding it here, it should be
replaced with 'ICANN Org', to avoid further confusion.

And for sure, we should not solidify dependance on some URL on the website of ICANN in the policy statements
( https://www.icann.org/octo <https://www.icann.org/octo> is a webpage, which can be changed at any time without any kind of due process). 

Sincerely Yours,

Maxim Alzoba
Special projects manager,
International Relations Department,
FAITID

This consideration should be informed by legal guidance on if/how provisions in the GDPR concerning research apply to ICANN Org and the expression for the need of such pseudonymized data by ICANN."

The team spent the last calls (90min call per week) since Janis started his role as chair early this month to discuss the approach to be followed for phase 2,  including also the review the legal questions and the tools the team will use for deliberation. I attached the slides presented in last call to explain the approach ,includes a rough high level timeline and next steps till Marrakech meeting. Please let me know if you want more details.

The EPDP team is seeking clarification from the GNSO Council regarding the Bylaw-triggered consultation process following the non-adoption by Board of parts of GNSO Council approved recommendations. I understand that council can realistically respond to this after our extraordinary meeting on board resolution next week.
