Dear WG members,

Please find attached a document that staff has compiled of P/P provider responses to the 5 questions posed by the WG chairs to the group after the call last week, as follows:

1. What are provider practices regarding customer notification when a disclosure request is received, and is the customer given the opportunity to respond?

 

2. Does any provider offer its customer an option other than disclosure or publication, e.g. an opportunity to cancel the registration instead (i.e. what some WG members have mentioned as a “takedown”)?

 

3. What are provider “standards" for determining disclosure to third parties?

 

4. Can providers give the WG some general information about the percentage of requests for disclosure that are successful?

 

5. For Q4, do providers also have information about the type of claims those relate to e.g. If they are from LEA, 3P IP claim etc.?

Please let me know if I have mischaracterized or omitted any response that you may have sent (for which I offer my apologies!). If you have not yet provided a response and are in a position to do so, or if you’d like to add to a response you’d provided previously, please send it along and I’ll make sure it gets added to this document.

Finally, please note that certain actual provider terms of service obtained from a sample of providers had previously been compiled as part of the draft template for this Category F, so that may also be helpful – these are available on the WG wiki here: https://community.icann.org/x/QwbxAg.

Thanks and cheers

Mary
