Dear Sirs, GDPR only applies to data processing with a nexus to the EEA (European Economic Area) [please find article 3 of "Regulation (EU) 2016/679<https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/AUTO/?uri=CELEX:02016R0679-201605...>"], so ICANN should limit application of the PUBLISHED ICANN PROPOSED INTERIM MODEL FOR GDPR COMPLIANCE to data processing with an EEA nexus, and specifically prohibit its application to data with no such nexus (such as where neither the contracted party nor the registrant are within the EEA). So we believe that a RDAP Whois service should compel Registrar and Registries to disclose such registrant whois personal data whenever these data would be outside the EEA.
