- Thread-topic: GAC advice on WHOIS
Hello All,
The following advice in the GAC communiqué just presented in the ICANN Public
Forum relates to WHOIS:
"The GAC welcomes the opportunity to respond to the "draft ICANN
Procedure for Handling WHOIS Conflicts with National Privacy
Laws".
Due to the complexity of this issue related to the diversity of
national policies and procedures among GAC members the GAC
does not believe a uniform process is workable and accordingly the
interim solution from the GAC's San Juan communiqué should be
the basis of resolving any potential conflict:
... specific cases should be referred to the relevant national
government for advice on the authority of the request for
derogation from the ICANN gTLD WHOIS policy.
The GAC reiterates its recommendation outlined in the GAC
WHOIS principles that a study on uses and misuses of WHOIS data
should be undertaken by ICANN and is prepared to contribute to the
elaboration of the terms of reference of such a study. "
Regards,
Bruce Tonkin
