[council] [CORRESPONDENCE] Maarten Botterman to GNSO Council Co-chairs - EPDP Phase 1, Rec 7

Wed Jul 8 09:27:29 UTC 2020

Thank you Rafik.

I realise that I have not share with the council the notes I had prepared directly after our last call.
I promised than a written version of my brief progress report with the IRT on this matter.

Dear GNSO Councillors

As I briefly reported during our ICANN 68 meeting/call, following our last GNSO call I engaged the IRT on Phase I to gather every party’s position.

I was asked by the Registries and Registrars to included 2 pre-existing documents:

  *   Marc Anderson’s 20 Dec 2020 paper : https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/irt.regdatapolicy/2019-December/000387.html__;!!N14HnBHF!vaAscqhd958WAD-F1tddRYExnQYoVFA_o17SRoc6jivOw6Eu3myZ2ECOPaCXJwQ8Ew$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/mm.icann.org/pipermail/irt.regdatapolicy/2019-December/000387.html__;!!N14HnBHF!sa7KwjnHePIYfU6w2xcUyBxSY5Qtf47lej1EZqQdrZGZHjOUKguLy8FOip_tclWjdc2qLA$>
and corresponding comments
  *   The letter sent by the CPH sent to the GNSO on 18 May 2020 : https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/cph-to-gnso-council-18may20-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!vaAscqhd958WAD-F1tddRYExnQYoVFA_o17SRoc6jivOw6Eu3myZ2ECOPaB0D3BEtg$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/cph-to-gnso-council-18may20-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!sa7KwjnHePIYfU6w2xcUyBxSY5Qtf47lej1EZqQdrZGZHjOUKguLy8FOip_tclWJdZRc5Q$>

The IPC and BC propose a joint paper:

  *   Alex Deacon’s submission of 17 Jun 2020 : https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://mm.icann.org/pipermail/irt.regdatapolicy/2020-June/000498.html__;!!N14HnBHF!vaAscqhd958WAD-F1tddRYExnQYoVFA_o17SRoc6jivOw6Eu3myZ2ECOPaBVkrMdRw$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/mm.icann.org/pipermail/irt.regdatapolicy/2020-June/000498.html__;!!N14HnBHF!sa7KwjnHePIYfU6w2xcUyBxSY5Qtf47lej1EZqQdrZGZHjOUKguLy8FOip_tclVMP2Jdcg$>

The IPT (Staff) has offered input in the “One Doc” (the IRT working document not publicly available)

The Board offered guidance

  *   EPDP Phase 1 Final Report Scorecard: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/epdp-scorecard-15may19-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!vaAscqhd958WAD-F1tddRYExnQYoVFA_o17SRoc6jivOw6Eu3myZ2ECOPaC_ODoG7g$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.icann.org/en/system/files/files/epdp-scorecard-15may19-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!r1A7O0C4xHNps3KdtkqwVjV6BNwUVHWAZrHgQuyYtaZ7OI6aYNwH6hn_7ZxnhbCub35s$>
  *   During a 22 Apr 2020 IRT Call joined by Becky Burr, Chris Disspain and Maarten Booterman.

Context:
Recommendation 7 pertains to the transfer of data from Registrars to Registries. It reads:
The EPDP Team recommends that the specifically-identified data elements under “[t]ransmission of registration data from Registrar to Registry”, as illustrated in the aggregate data elements workbooks, must be transferred from registrar to registry provided an appropriate legal basis exists and data processing agreement is in place. In the aggregate, these data elements are:
[followed by the list of data points that may be transferred, some marked as Mandatory (technical fields), others as Optional (contact fields)]
Ref: https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/epdp-gtld-registration-data-specs-final-20feb19-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!vaAscqhd958WAD-F1tddRYExnQYoVFA_o17SRoc6jivOw6Eu3myZ2ECOPaAuy2_iJw$ <https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/gnso.icann.org/sites/default/files/file/field-file-attach/epdp-gtld-registration-data-specs-final-20feb19-en.pdf__;!!N14HnBHF!r1A7O0C4xHNps3KdtkqwVjV6BNwUVHWAZrHgQuyYtaZ7OI6aYNwH6hn_7ZxnhWxFHAo6$>

Positions (as per my understanding):
A point of contention exists on the fact that “an appropriate legal basis” may or not exist.

  *   RrSG + RySG – favour transcribing the Recommendation wording as is with the understanding that legal basis is not established in all cases.
  *   IPC + BC – have no objection to the Recommendation wording with the understanding that legal basis is established in all cases, in particular with respect to the Thick WHOIS Transition Policy.
  *   Other members of the IRT – did not choose to submit comments to this issue beyond Amr Elsadr’s approval of Marc Anderson’s 20 Dec 2020 paper referenced above.

  *   IPT – of the view that legal basis is established in all cases, and suggests to remove “provided an appropriate legal basis exists and data processing agreement is in place.”
  *   The ICANN Board – reminded the IRT (via the Scorecard and 22 Apr 2020 call, that Rec 7 could not “repeal or overturn existing Consensus Policy including, in this case, the Thick WHOIS Policy”, at least not without GNSO Council oversight and approval.

  *   All parties agree that through mechanisms provided by Recommendation 27 existing consensus policy, including the Thick WHOIS Transition Policy, should be reviewed to reflect such aspects as the reduced set of contact fields in the data set.

These positions were by and large confirmed during the last IRT call directly preceding our GNSO call.
