Whereas, registrars only succeed if they provide valuable services to their customers;

 

Whereas, registrants must be protected against the potential bad acts of disreputable registries and registrars;

 

Whereas, within the scope of ICANN's mission and mandate, it is incumbent on it to protect registrants against the potential bad acts of disreputable gTLD registries and registrars;

 

Whereas, ICANN Staff has recently formulated a new Compliance Program for gTLD Registries and Registrars; 

 

Whereas, ICANN Staff has recently announced its success in furthering a data escrow requirement for gTLD registries http://www.icann.org/announcements/announcement-05mar07.htm;

 

Whereas, ICANN Staff has not yet specified a schedule, terms, or a format of a data escrow requirement for gTLD registrars; 

 

Whereas, many registrars currently secure registrant and domain name data through various back-up methods, but that this practice is by no means uniform or compulsory across all accredited registrars;

 

Whereas, the various back-up methods used by registrars may not be sufficient in all cases to assist ICANN Staff in recovering such data in the event of registrar business failure; and

 

Whereas, recent events have highlighted the need for a registrar data escrow program and enhanced compliance efforts with regard to requirements in the Registrar Accreditation Agreement.

 

Be it resolved that the undersigned registrars call for ICANN Staff to work with the ICANN Registrar Constituency to finalize the terms of a gTLD registrar data escrow program; and 

 

Be it further resolved that the undersigned registrars call for ICANN Staff to work with the ICANN Registrar Constituency to improve the effectiveness of the ICANN Compliance Program for gTLD Registrars.
