Thanks again Tapani. I clearly was reading too much into what you said.

It can't. But if either of those conditions is fulfilled, that is, either the processor or the subject is European, then GDPR applies.
If both are non-European, then it doesn't.
But the processor being European is sufficient even if the actual processing is done outside Europe (EU).

I'm asking if registrars have received specific guidance, or can point to anything specific in the GDPR or any written document, indicating that you have to provide GDPR protections to all of your customers, even if they aren't in scope. In other words, I'm looking for a very clear statement along these lines from a DPA:

If that's true as a legal requirement, I think it's important for the security/compliance community to be aware of that...if it's not, perhaps that opens up some more granular approaches that can satisfy both sides.

So, for example, let's say that I transferred my company's domain name (obviously, we're a legal person, and we're domiciled in the US and registered here) to Blacknight. I think you'd agree we're not the intended beneficiary of the GDPR. My specific question for you is: Is there written guidance somewhere indicating that you do, in fact, have to provide me GDPR protections? That your policies have to apply to me? If there's some language out there specifically indicating that, it would be helpful to see that. I didn't see that in the Hamilton memo (perhaps I'm missing it) nor in the text of the GDPR (but again, perhaps I'm missing it). Let me know if my question doesn't make sense.

To make sure I'm being clear about what I mean, GoDaddy isn't only redacting Whois information (via Port 43) where it's an EU natural citizen or natural resident. The information is being redacted for....everyone. All registrants. There's simply no justification for that.

But we're seeing the registrar community say: We want to apply this globally. To all domain name registrations. Doesn't matter if the registrant is the intended beneficiary of the new law, or in scope, or not. We're going to just change global policy.
