Lisa, In addition, and in line with my comments on the call, I have the following question and comments from the requestor-side: 1. What is the purpose of the Request Category? * More importantly does it make a difference to the Registrars’ decision-making. 1. I don’t understand the purpose of asking the question: Are you asserting a legal basis under which you would process the requested data pursuant to the European Union General Data Protection Regulation or other applicable law? * Put differently, when should a Requestor answer yes and when should they answer no? Does it make a difference? One Registrar in San Juan remarked that it does. Moreover, if the answer is other applicable law, shouldn’t the Requestor disclose that so that the Registrar can apply the applicable law? In terms of what the responses that a requestor gets, they look like this (cut and pasted from the RDRS): 2024-02-15 Request status change to Denied · Contracted party cannot disclose the data due to applicable law · Other corrective action is required before request can be processed There is an “Explanation” provided, but it does not answer (A) what applicable law prevents the Registrar from disclosing, or (B) under the unknown applicable law why the request was deficient; and (C) what other corrective action is required.

As discussed at the meeting, I understand that requestors are not always clear on the outcomes for their requests, it sounds like the denial reasons are not always readily evident. This seems like a significant barrier to a positive Thanks Lisa! As discussed at the meeting, I understand that requestors are not always clear on the outcomes for their requests, it sounds like the denial reasons are not always readily evident. This seems like a significant barrier to a positive user experience, and I think that registrars would be open to improvements re indicating the outcome to the requestors, but we all need more info first. Here are the questions that arise for me: * If a registrar selects 'denied' and then selects a reason from the menu, what is shown to the requestor? * How is it shown, does the requestor get an email or must they look at it in the RDRS interface? * How does the RDRS functionality for indicating outcomes compare to what requestors expect? * Should any difference be addressed by modifying what the registrar does in RDRS, or by educating the requestor on RDRS functionality? * I know there is an optional box for further explanation, but I would generally expect that the provided menu of options should be enough info, do we need to revisit those and consider enhancements?

I’m hoping to get back to you toward the end of the week with details on timing for implementation for the items below. System Enhancements for RDRS Requestors discussed on 11 March: 1. Improved error messaging to address concerns surfaced at the EURALO roundtable (e.g. ccTLDs, non-participating registrars, unsupported TLDs) 2. Language added to system interface to indicate which TLDs are not supported in RDRS (e.g. ccTLDs, mil, .int, .arpa, .gov, .edu) 3. The “Help” link on the RDRS requestor home page will be anchored to the “RDRS Resources” section of the RDRS page<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.icann.org/rdrs-en__;!!LBFcHN3WCgnqDQ!...> of icann.org for better user experience 4. RDRS FAQs for Requestors will be updated to include additional explanations on unsupported TLDs (e.g. .mil, .int, .arpa, .gov, .edu) Thanks Lisa Carter Sr. Program Manager, Strategic Initiatives _______________________________________________ Gnso-rdrs-sc mailing list Gnso-rdrs-sc@icann.org<mailto:Gnso-rdrs-sc@icann.org> https://mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gnso-rdrs-sc<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/mm.icann.org/mailman/listinfo/gnso-rdrs-sc__;!!LBFcHN3WCgnqDQ!hmsSwRvoIpQB6Sb4HzuBKegr1Xqz6YwjlfYvSqPcTs1FPIGgZIvqNcF3dsD-YuI_eCka0lVCp-rY0uN-E_0-C3Y$> _______________________________________________ By submitting your personal data, you consent to the processing of your personal data for purposes of subscribing to this mailing list accordance with the ICANN Privacy Policy (https://www.icann.org/privacy/policy<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.icann.org/privacy/policy__;!!LBFcHN3WCgnqDQ!hmsSwRvoIpQB6Sb4HzuBKegr1Xqz6YwjlfYvSqPcTs1FPIGgZIvqNcF3dsD-YuI_eCka0lVCp-rY0uN-fl5hcF0$>) and the website Terms of Service (https://www.icann.org/privacy/tos<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.icann.org/privacy/tos__;!!LBFcHN3WCgnqDQ!hmsSwRvoIpQB6Sb4HzuBKegr1Xqz6YwjlfYvSqPcTs1FPIGgZIvqNcF3dsD-YuI_eCka0lVCp-rY0uN-69PrjqA$>).
