[NCSG-PC] Fwd: [council] Letter from RPM PDP co-chairs on GDPR & domain name dispute resolution

[Kathy Kleiman]

Hi Rafik,

Belated response due to illness. In consultation with the RPM Working 
Group, the Co-Chairs shared a letter with the GNSO Council highlighting 
the importance of WHOIS data for the ICANN-mandated domain name dispute 
resolution proceedings: the Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy and the 
Uniform Rapid Suspension system. The uses of the Whois data include 
notice to domain name registrants of any proceedings filed against their 
domain names.

Years ago NCUC worked for multiple ways for the Dispute Providers to 
notify registrants of a pending dispute, including email and hardcopy 
(in case an email coming from an party with no relationship to the 
registrant hit spam). These were written into the policies.

Our goal in the letter to Council was to share the need for registrant 
data, on a case by case basis, for the domain name dispute processes.

Best, Kathy
