Dear all (in BCC),

 

For the sake of the further debate within ICANN on the WHOIS and the European data protection laws, SIDN has asked a professional translator to translate the letter that the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens) has recently send to the .FRL registry in the Netherlands. 

 

Please find:

- the official announcement of the DPA in English here: https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/en/news/dutch-dpa-unlimited-publication-whois-data-violates-privacy-law

- the Dutch version of the letter as published by the DPA here: https://autoriteitpersoonsgegevens.nl/sites/default/files/atoms/files/20171026_-_brief_aan_frlregistry_b.v._geanonimiseerd.pdf

- the professional translation as commissioned by SIDN attached.

 

And feel free to share this information.

 

Best regards,

 

Maarten Simon

Sr. Legal & Policy Manager
