NOTES

Primary Goal: Shared understanding of existing purposes for gTLD
registration data and directory services

1. Introductions and SOI Updates

2. PDP Background 

3. Meeting Goals

4. Purposes for gTLD registration data and directory services

.        Clarify concept of purpose - difference between purpose and various
uses. For example, research data isn't a purpose for collection, it's a
purpose for disclosure

.        What do you mean by purpose - the WG has confused use cases with
purposes. Many of the identified "purposes" may not be the purpose for
collecting data (e.g.,,contactability)

.        Is this data required to perform your function? That's a
justification for collection. The next question is whether that is a
legitimate reason for collection. If so, it is a "purpose."

Domain Name Control (Drafting Team #2)

*
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/69280635/RDS%20WG%20DT2%20D
raft.pdf
*	Domain name registration creation, management, modification,
transfer and contact for operational issues
*	Comments on Users: 

*	Add URS where UDRP is listed, 
*	Add gaining registrar (during transfer), 
*	ICANN compliance should include audit staff and CTO office ("staff"
too broad)
*	Should local law enforcement be added to users for this purpose?
*	Local = relevant to jurisdiction
*	Why should third parties have access for controlling changes to the
DN record?

*	Should this be called Domain Name Management or Administration (not
Control)
*	Definition includes registrant providing data to create
registration, to manage registration, to modify that registration, to renew
the registration, and to transfer the domain name
*	Is there overlap between this definition and the Contractual
Compliance purpose?
*	Proposed purpose definition: "Collecting information required to
ensure DN remains under control of authorized user and to ensure no
unauthorized changes are made"
*	Does the above capture the need for into to register the DN in the
first place? 



Domain Name Certification (Drafting Team #3)

*
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/69280635/DraftingTeam3-DNCe
rtification-Output.pdf
*	CAs often must bind TLS/SSL certificates to fully qualified DNs
*	DN-validated certs don't use Whois today
*	Org and EV certs often use Whois to confirm enrolling org is listed
as registrant of DN
*	Specified by CA Browser Forum Best Practices
*	Users: Employees/Systems of CA in pursuit of this purpose
*	Use RR/Ry ID, registrant, admin, and tech contacts
*	Question as to whether RDS is always used - Org and EV certs have
been issued using alternative sources of data; you could have no RDS and
still get such a certificate
*	EV certs must be explicitly validated by other means (such as Whois
data)
*	Is there any data that CAs need that would not already be collected
for DN control/management? Don't think so
*	Not much reason to collect data just for this purpose, but if data
exists, good reason to use it
*	Without independently obtained email address, how would this work?
*	Whois is easiest for consumer but there are alternative ways to
reach CA requestor
*	If new data were collected for this purpose (e.g., CA Contact), the
purpose would be information collected to facilitate the registrant being
able to obtain a digital certificate
*	Even if not, could be a purpose for access to data collected for
other purposes?

Legal Actions (Drafting Team #6) 

*
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/69280635/RDS%20WG%20DT6%20D
raft%20-%20Revised%2010.26.2017%20v3.pdf
*	Assisting certain parties or their legal representatives or agents
to investigate and enforce civil and criminal laws, protected legal rights,
address online abuse or contractual compliance matters
*	Includes both third parties using data during investigation and
registrants who might need to see data being used to defend themselves
*	Provisions in RAA to require disclosure of data to law enforcement
*	Data collected for contactability for <list of reasons, including
legal actions>
*	For example, EWG proposed an (optional) Legal Contact to enable
contact with the party responsible for handing Legal Actions, which may
differ from your DN admin or your DN tech issues or the registrant - this
data would be collected specifically for the purpose
*	Additional examples of blasphemy etc should be listed in the
definition of the purpose
*	Suggest turning first paragraph into succinct statement 

Regulatory or Contractual Enforcement (Drafting Team #5)

*
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/69280635/DT5%20Deliverable%
2026%20Oct%2017%20v2.pdf
*	Entities that have a remit to enforce obligations under contracts,
industry best practices, or governmental regulation that relate to
activities on the Internet
*	See comments made previously re: "staff" (too broad, be more
specific)
*	Regulatory or contractual enforcers are separate from plaintiffs,
because they are not at the same level in terms of what data they should
have access to
*	What are the limits to this purpose? 
*	For this purpose, often the WHOIS for IP is more important than the
WHOIS for the DN
*	Noted that purpose/use case doesn't distinguish between legitimate
and non legitimate purposes - the boundaries of the use case
*	What does "best practices" refer to? Need to provide examples - such
as, best practices for RRs/Rys which are not contractual mandates
*	Started with data that is available, which creates some interest in
using the data, but that may not determine legitimacy of that use
*	How do IP owners fit into contractual enforcement? Some of the other
users?
Possible example - TM infringement for domain name (legal actions)
*	Which contracts? For example, ICANN's contracts with contracted
parties, contracts that RRs have with registrants, other contracts?
Narrowing this down might help refine who the users are and what data is
needed
*	Split apart contractual enforcement and regulatory enforcement to
more clearly explain the two different cases and the users/data for each of
those
*	Regulations to be enforce may include data protection and privacy
laws
*	Ultimately purpose(s) may need to be renamed to more clearly
indicate scope
*	May need to tease out what appear to be very different use cases
(without deleting them) and to identify cases which may have overlap - which
purpose(s) do they overlap?
*	Matrices might help pinpoint overlaps between purposes

Individual Internet Use (Drafting Team #2)

*
https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/69280635/RDS%20WG%20DT2%20D
raft.pdf
*	Any Internet user, contacting the domain name registrant for
information about their website/services -or- consumer protection where
Internet user questions whether website is legitimate or wants to report
malicious activity such as suspected phishing
*	Consumer protection could be divided into consumer themselves, vs.
consumer protection agency which is covered elsewhere (regulatory
enforcement)
*	May be the most complicated from a DP law perspective and what is
legitimate
*	The average user who uses the Internet is not capable of using Whois
*	Concept of using Whois for consumer protection need to be unpacked
from other uses
*	There are many spam reporting tools and other point-and-click tools
that use WHOIS on the backend to provide reputation data to end users (eg
Google report spam)
*	This purpose relates to ICANN Bylaws mandate to promote consumer
trust in the DNS
*	Note this use case if for users other than Registrant (which is
covered in DN Control)
