Dear all,
The Board of Directors of the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) voted to reaffirm the “Temporary
Specification for gTLD Registration Data [icann.org].” The full text of the Board’s resolution is available here
[icann.org].
The Temporary Specification was originally
approved [icann.org] by the Board on 17 May 2018, in order to establish temporary requirements for how ICANN and its contracted parties will comply with existing ICANN contractual requirements and community-developed
policies in relation to the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Under the procedures for adopting Temporary Policies outlined in the Registry
Agreement [icann.org] and Registrar
Accreditation Agreement [icann.org], the Board must reaffirm the adoption every 90 days, and may continue to do so for no more than a year.
For more information and to follow the latest updates, please visit the dedicated Data
Protection/Privacy issues page [icann.org].
