Dear Lisa,
Thanks once more for the update.

@All, yesterday was one of the most interesting meeting for me. I am really
sure that It will make things clear for many of us as far as the poll is
concern.

Have a nice week.

>
>    a. Overview from Stephanie Perrin & Peter Kimpian

>    - Right to privacy is a universal right, even if it is interpreted
>    differently in different countries.
>    - Individuals have to be in control of their personal data (the whole
>    trail of data). Overarching principles: necessity, proportionality, purpose
>    specification / purpose limitation.
>    - For data processing there has to be a legitimate aim/purpose. Lawful
>    and fair means of data processing. Lawful = it has to be regulated and/or
>    not forbidden by legislation.
>    - Valid legal basis (law, consent, contract, vital interest of the
>    individual). This concept is also present in other legal frameworks, not
>    only the European one.
>    - Data processing needs to be adequate, relevant and not excessive.
>    - Data minimization principle: no processing of data for the sake of
>    data, only for a purpose. During the processing, the data controller has
>    the obligation to process the minimum amount of data that is fit for
>    purpose.
>    - There are a number of exemptions (see slide 4). Always conditions to
>    these exemptions. Need to establish criteria under which such exemptions
>    are permissible.
>    - Disclosure of data (slide 5) - same rules apply as for processing,
>    however there is a third party that enters into the picture using the data
>    for a secondary purpose.
>    - Accountability (slide 6) - data controller is accountable for
>    upholding data protection principles.
>
> *Comments from Stephanie Perrin*
>
>    - One of the basic principles of data protection law is that
>    processing needs to be fair and lawful.
>    - Fair = there need to be limits to the collection of PI. Collection
>    needs to be focused on the purpose. Most common law countries, there has to
>    be a legal mandate for a government department to collect data. This gets
>    fuzzier in the private sector.
>    - Private sector companies that are offering a service that is not
>    mandatory, they can define what is relevant and gain consent. Notice and
>    choice appears to have become the rule for Internet services, based on US
>    practice.
>    - The restriction of collection of data to what is needed. Defining
>    the purpose of collection is therefore fundamental.
>    - There are differences across countries with regards to data
>    protection laws. and how some of these principles are applied. A good
>    overview can be found here:
>    https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=2603502.
>    - What is the purpose of ICANN in gathering personal information?
>    - Not arguing that potential uses are not appropriate or useful, but
>    these potential uses for other purposes can be considered secondary use.
>    This is not sufficient purpose for collection though.
>
>    b. Q&A
>
>    - Q: Is ICANN the "data controller" in our world?   Or is it the
>    registries/registrars?
>    - A: One view is that ICANN is the data controller, because it sets
>    the RAA which defines collection, use and disclosure. Registrars and
>    registries could be considered data processors WRT the data that ICANN
>    tells them to collect and display, including all relevant policies. They
>    are data controllers with respect to their own business operations, data
>    they gather to sell other services for which ICANN does not set policy.  So
>    they are hybrid. It was pointed out that this issue was hotly debated
>    during the EWG without reaching a conclusion.
>    - See Key Inputs section of wiki for A29 documents on concept of data
>    controller and processor
>    - See also chat dialog regarding application of the terms "data
>    controller" and "data processor" to WHOIS data
>    - Q: What aspects of this apply to commercial entities?  Would a
>    commercial entity have the same right to privacy of their data as an
>    individual data subject?
>    - A: No. Privacy is a human right, linked to human beings (natural
>    persons). There are discussions about this but for now no, only applies to
>    human beings.
>    - Q: For example, see WHOIS for domain name facebook.hu - Has the
>    Hungarian registry defined purposes for collecting this data? If so, could
>    help us in our discussion for gTLDs.
>    - A: Don't know if they have done so, or if they are compliant.
>    - Q: Do these privacy principles just apply to Personally Identifiable
>    Information (PII) or other types of information?
>    - A: Yes - PII applies only to humans, and so human rights only apply
>    to PII
>    - Q: Re: exemptions for protecting the data subject or the rights and
>    freedoms of others - How do these exemptions apply to and inform our work
>    in the RDS PDP?
>    - A: Thousands of pages of case law of how courts have defined ways of
>    striking a balance between contradicting rights. For example cases in
>    Europe and also US - helpful but not absolute because future cases will
>    also judge
>    - Re: commercial v personal data, it varies by jurisdiction whether
>    employees of a company are considered to have rights to personal data
>    (e.g., business card carve out). In for instance Germany you have to seek
>    consent from employees before you put their name on the Internet.
>    - Q: A lot of the arguments that took place in the PPSAI PDP examined
>    needs of small organizations w/r/t protecting the privacy of data. But are
>    those "other" privacy rights that apply to small organizations or data
>    protection rights?
>    - A: It depends - for example, volunteers may have data protection
>    rights for their personal information.
>    - When it comes to ICANN and notice required of registrars to provide
>    individuals when collecting registration data, do all registrars do this
>    today? disclosure and obtaining consent ("a.k.a. notice and choice"?) is
>    required under RAA 3.7.7.4 and 3.7.7.5.  Registrars are required to
>    "3.7.7.5 The Registered Name Holder shall consent to the data processing
>    referred to in Subsection 3.7.7.4."
>    - Comment: the requirement wasn't to inform about rights, but to
>    provide information sufficient to obtain "specific and informed consent of
>    the subscriber ... prior to the inclusion of his personal data into all
>    kinds of public directories (traditional telephony, mobile telephony,
>    electronic mail, electronic signatures etc.) used for reverse or
>    multi-criteria searches." Article 29 WP 33 Opinion 5/2000
>    - Q: Do we have a duty not to convey individual human rights to a
>    commercial entity?
>    - A: Spectrum of organizations (large, small...) but we need to deal
>    with this. Many ccTLDs make a distinction between individual and commercial
>    registrations (e.g., CIRA) Practices vary across ccTLDs and the
>    jurisdictions in which they operate.
>    - One view: Most ccTLD registries comply perfectly when it comes to
>    personal data and data regulation/law in combination of whois output - at
>    least in Europe
>    - Q: In WHOIS today, there is no formal method of distinguishing
>    fields that contain personal data from fields that do not. Do we need to
>    consider flagging the fields that contain personal data?
>    - A: This certainly can be something this WG can consider when
>    deliberating on policy or implementation guidance
>    - Shouldn't we be using privacy by design with we enter our
>    deliberations?
>    - Q: Are there any of the "thin data" elements as we have discussed
>    over the past few weeks considered PII?
>    - A: One view: a small subset of thin data may not be considered
>    personally identifiable because there's no name, address, or phone number -
>    but if the data is traceable back to the individual, it may be considered
>    "personal data." For example, if a timestamp links to an action that links
>    to an individual, it's personal data - which is not to say that it cannot
>    be disclosed. Becoming more of an issue w IoT - for example, refrigerator
>    reporting activity may be linked to an individual's actions. See also file
>    cabinet example.
>    - "personal data" is a defined term in RAA "data about any identified
>    or identifiable natural person."
>    - See meeting handout for example of a "thin" WHOIS record data
>    elements
>    - Sometimes depends on circumstance (e.g. IP address). European
>    registries publish thin data and have gotten that vetted. Can this WG
>    proceed without legal advice, whether reusing advice provided to thick data
>    PDP or EWG, or seeking advice specific to this PDP
>    - Possible source of inspiration: "The principles have been drafted
>    against a background of economies with separate policies that draw
>    distinctions between data. Despite differences, framework has been drafted
>    to ... apply to personal information which is information that can be used
>    to identify an individual, including information which would not be
>    personal alone but can be used in that way" (refer to transcript)
>    - Perhaps what we need to focus on is perhaps not whether data
>    elements are personal data but rather look at each data element and decide
>    whether it can be collected, whether it can be disclosed?
>    - Do we also need to balance the value of having this data disclosed
>    for identified purposes?
>
>    c. Update on planning for Copenhagen session with Data Commissioners
>
> ·        Session is planned on 13 March in Copenhagen during which data
> protection commissioners will debate these topics. Objective to have a
> better understanding of how privacy principles are interpreted by
> authorities and legislators.
>
> 3. Begin deliberation on the Privacy charter question, starting with the
> following: (see  meeting handout

> )
>
> ·        *Question 4.1 (revised): For thin data only -- Do existing gTLD
> registration directory services policies sufficiently address compliance
> with applicable data protection, privacy, and free speech laws about
> purpose? If not, what requirements might those laws place on RDS policies
