Hi, I tend to think that privacy rights should be specifically enumerated. I don't fully understand the notion of registries having any proprietary rights to registry information, though I expect they do receive some use rights. This may be a case for enumerated several rights; i.e. "and which rights, including but not limited to, privacy and use rights ..." I also have trouble with the word exists. What does it mean for a right to exist in something? I am not, obviously, one of the lawyers in the council, but i would think that this set of possible rights 'pertain to' or are 'associated with' (i am sure there is a perfect legal term) the date instead of existing within. To put it another way, are rights an attribute of the data? a. On 19 feb 2006, at 21.09, Maria Farrell wrote:
'Proprietary rights' wouldn't cover the data protection aspect. Under EU legislation at least, data protection does not in any way imply ownership of the data by the data subject, but rather a set of obligations on the user.
I suggest, simply; 'rights'.

Perhaps the term is “proprietary rights” or various forms of proprietary rights”…

Dear Council members,
As agreed, I have modified the ToR in line with the discussions at the Council call 16 February, with most valued help from other staff attending the call. See attachment. I have used the paragraph wordings supplied to the list by Ross and Bruce (taking the latest submission in one case when both had provided slightly different texts) and staff notes for a couple of other agreed changes. I must emphasize that the exact outcome was not always crystal clear so please consider the new draft carefully.
Also, regarding Marilyn’s recent mail, the expression “privacy rights” remains in 5a, but I do share Marilyn’s concern that this expression may be amiss. It is probably not “intellectual property rights” we’re looking for either and it may be appropriate to use a more explicit sentence to capture the gist of what is intended.
Best regards
Olof
