[TSG-Access-RD] Letter from Contracted Parties on technical approach to unified access model

[Eleeza Agopian]

Dear all,

Further to our discussion on Tuesday regarding the approach described in the draft charter, I am sharing this letter<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/bunton-diaz-to-chalaby-marby-22oct18-en.pdf> (also attached) ICANN org received from the Contracted Party House on 22 Oct. Göran replied<https://www.icann.org/en/system/files/correspondence/bunton-diaz-to-chalaby-marby-22oct18-en.pdf> (also attached) to the letter earlier this week and referenced this group's work.  In the CPH letter, they express support for exploring the approach described in both the 8 Oct. webinar<https://participate.icann.org/p29vt2uxodx/> and the draft charter<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1_lZGIy5Xgn5PvMxHbAns7Lle7EmRaFl2wqFtSoWOk40/edit>:

"We agree that the provision of third-party access to information about registered names and nameservers,
consistent with applicable law and the ICANN Mission, is an ICANN objective, and we agree that
establishing ICANN as the sole data controller for a centralized access portal operating under community-developed and GDPR compliant policies might result in a more predictable and uniform experience for
those with legitimate and proportionate interests in use of registration data. Although, as discussed
below, more information is needed to evaluate this concept fully, we believe it is worth exploring. We
also believe that it is possible for ICANN to conduct such exploration in parallel with the ongoing ePDP,
and without usurping the community's policy development authority."

I hope you find this information useful. Please let me know of any questions.

Thank you,
Eleeza
