Thanks all

We are not really saying anything new (we said similar things in our public
comments). Anyhow, I read the report again today, and re-did the statement
sent it to NCSG mailing list and Tanya said will kindly read it during the
meeting.

I leave it to the policy committee to decide on reading the statement or
the best course of action. the link to Google doc at the bottom of this
email.

NCSG statement/ For GNSO Council Meeting, 14 February

Despite an unrealistic timeline, EPDP achieved its goal and delivered the
final report. We are positive about the final report and our councilors
have voted for its approval. But we are concerned with some aspects of the
report and would like to record our concerns.


   -

   The report has included additional potentially  personal and sensitive
   data elements that are “identified by Registry Operator in its registration
   policy."  There was no justifiable reason to include these additional data
   elements in the report, nor was it justifiable to formulate purposes that
   could relate to processing these additional elements.  These additional
   data elements were not included in Temp Spec either. We are concerned about
   subjecting these additional data elements to this policy and warn the ICANN
   community and domain name registrants that due to this addition even more
   sensitive and personal data might be disclosed to third parties on a global
   scale.



   -

   Data protection should be provided for all domain name registrants
   globally regardless of their location. Discriminatory treatment of domain
   name registrants and providing some with less data protection is not
   justified, especially as we are moving towards disclosing domain name
   registrants data to third parties "globally".


-  We believe "disclosure" of data to third parties is not an ICANN purpose
for processing the data.

We thank the EPDP, its leadership and ICANN staff for achieving this
milestone. We hope that with this policy  by cultivating a
privacy-respecting culture at ICANN, protecting the personal data of domain
name registrants becomes a norm, and not remain an exception.

Feel free too correct mistakes, change the tone remove unnessecary rant
etc.
