Summary:
gTLD related;
- no verification on submission other than technical.
- technical to ensure appropriate data structure on submission.
- ensure that all required data elements are collected.
- require acceptance of registration agreement (which and enforces
registrant data accuracy requirements).
- compliance with WDRP and ICANN Whois Problem Reports.
ccTLD related;
- check to ensure that the registrant is a valid legal entity.
- manually verify existence of registrant provided identity information.
- no address/contact info checking.
Two conditions were flagged as being primary conditions that must exist
as the result of any data verification technique;
a) is the information submitted representative of an actual person,
place or thing (ie - is the phone number a real phone number, is the
name the name of a real person and is the address the location of a real
place).
b) is the relationship between the data submitted representative of the
actual situation. (Joe McDonald may say that he is submitting on behalf
of Tucows Inc. and use real street names and phone numbers but does the
story hold together when the connections between the data is examined?)
This summary reflects the input of 4 constituency members. I have not
yet received clearance from these members to publish specifics of their
responses, but will do so if and when I do.
