REMINDER: Call for Legal Committee Volunteers - EPDP Phase 2A
by Caitlin Tubergen Jan. 19, 2021

Jan. 19, 2021

Dear EPDP Team, This is a friendly reminder for groups to reconfirm or appoint one member to the Phase 2A Legal Committee by COB tomorrow, Wednesday, 20 January. Thank you. Best regards, Marika, Berry, and Caitlin From: Caitlin Tubergen <caitlin.tubergen(a)icann.org> Date: Thursday, January 14, 2021 at 12:39 PM To: "gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org" <gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org> Subject: Call for Legal Committee Volunteers - EPDP Phase 2A Dear EPDP Team, As Keith noted during today’s meeting, the EPDP Phase 2A Team will have a Legal Committee, similar to Phase 1 and Phase 2. EPDP Team groups may reconfirm/appoint one member to the Legal Committee by Wednesday, 20 January. Those of you who participated in Phase 1 and 2 will remember we established a Legal Committee to review and revise proposed legal questions to ensure: (1) the questions are truly legal in nature, as opposed to policy or policy implementation questions; (2) the questions are phrased in a neutral manner, avoiding both presumed outcomes as well as constituency positioning; (3) the questions are both apposite and timely to the EPDP Team’s work; and (4) the budget for external legal counsel is being used responsibly. Based on feedback from the team, the membership is representative, i.e., each group may, but is not required to, appoint up to one representative. The appointed representative, where possible, should have legal expertise. Members of the Legal Committee are asked to provide advice based on their legal experience, factoring in all aspects of the conversation, not only that of their respective constituency. The Legal Committee will meet on an as-needed basis. The meetings will be open to anyone from the EPDP Team who would like to attend; however, only the appointed representatives will be invited to speak. Questions agreed to by the entire Legal Committee will be sent to outside counsel for review and forwarded to the EPDP Team as an FYI; please note this means if you have an interest in the Legal Committee’s work and/or have concerns with certain questions, please filter that feedback through your appointed representative. Thank you. Best regards, Marika, Berry, and Caitlin

Thanks, Melina. Copying in the correct email address for the GNSO EPDP Team (please see message below). We’ll get your access to the google drive sorted shortly. Best regards, Caitlin, Berry and Marika From: STROUNGI Melina <Melina.STROUNGI(a)ec.europa.eu> Date: Tuesday, 19 January 2021 at 12:45 To: "gnso-epdp-team-bounces(a)icann.org" <gnso-epdp-team-bounces(a)icann.org>, Marika Konings <marika.konings(a)icann.org> Cc: NEMIGUENTCHEVA - GRAU Velimira <Velimira.GRAU(a)ec.europa.eu>, "LEWIS-EVANS, Christopher" <Christopher.Lewis-Evans(a)nca.gov.uk>, "Kapin, Laureen" <LKAPIN(a)ftc.gov> Subject: [Ext] RE: For your review - feasibility of requiring unique contacts terminology, problem statement and examples Dear Caitlin, Berry and Marika, Just to let you know that I do not appear to have access to the google docs below. I had requested access since yesterday but it doesn’t seem to have been authorized. In order to meet today’s deadline, please find some initial questions/comments from my side (copying also my GAC colleagues). If someone could insert them in the doc, where appropriate, it would be great. 1. On the B&B definition of pseudonymisation, currently defined as: “The same unique string is used for multiple registrations by a unique data subject.”--> By ‘multiple registrations’ we mean various registrations within the same registrar or within multiple registrars/registries? (Melina/GAC) Why do we need a different definition of pseudonymisation as compared to the one in GDPR? What is the added value of such definition? (Velimira/GAC) 1. According to the description of the specific exercise of Phase 2a, our goal/task is : “Addressing the feasibility of requiring unique contacts to have a uniform anonymized email address across domain name registrations at a given Registrar” Moreover, according to EPDP Team Recommendation #13: “The EPDP Team recommends that the Registrar MUST provide an email address or a web form to facilitate email communication with the relevant contact, but MUST NOT identify the contact email address or the contact itself”. -->Doesn’t this mean that the purpose of Phase 2a has been already defined and is limited to contactibility of the registrant? Or can we still consider including feasibility of correlation or registrations across multiple registrars? (Melina/GAC) 1. ENISA’s report on pseudonymisation techniques states that: ‘however, it is often not the choice of pseudonymisation technique utilised for one or two specific identifiers that causes the most problems; it is the implicit linkability among a set of pseudonyms and other data values that are joined into a more complex data structure’. The issue of linkability is precisely the point that we need to understand and this is precisely why an example of how pseudonymisation would work in the context of registries/registrars would be useful. We need to understand how this ‘unique string’ would be shared (if shared) across registries/registrars, if and to what extent they already exchange internally personal data and if such linkability would be possible from the side of third parties (if yes, how? By hacking/leaking the mapping table for example or also in any other way?). It is crucial for the purpose and success of the whole Phase 2a exercise to have a solid understanding on specific technical implementation details. To that end, specific case examples provided by the contracted parties would be very useful. Best, Melina From: Gnso-epdp-team <gnso-epdp-team-bounces(a)icann.org<mailto:gnso-epdp-team-bounces@icann.org>> On Behalf Of Marika Konings Sent: Friday, January 15, 2021 8:56 PM To: gnso-epdp-team(a)icann.org<mailto:gnso-epdp-team@icann.org> Subject: [Gnso-epdp-team] For your review - feasibility of requiring unique contacts terminology, problem statement and examples Dear EPDP Team, Per the action items from Thursday’s meeting, the staff support team has tried to pull together terminology, problem statements and examples for your review and input here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1weQemSQ0-884ILbhmR3OLzUWouyGXMKH/edit<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/docs.google.com/document/d/1weQemSQ0-884…>.

Contact Relays
by James M. Bladel Jan. 18, 2021

Jan. 18, 2021

Hi folks – On last Thursday’s call, we spent a chunk of time discussing the merits/efficacy of various Registrar implementations of the Contact Relay requirement. In my view, this is one of htose topics that our group can’t resist debating, and yet it is not within scope for our work in Phase 2A. Our calendar is extremely tight, and I would ask everyone (myself included) to try and avoid these “catnip” topics that burn a lot of call time, but ultimately don’t end up anywhere. Thanks— J.
