Re: [NA-Discuss] Question about GDRP
by Alan Greenberg May 1, 2018

May 1, 2018

GDPR generally applies to all businesses. There is an exemption about not maintaining records of how data is used, but if a person requests such a record, you would have to reconstruct it after the fact. I was not aware of any exemption on publishing why and how data is collected and processed, but that may be ignorance on my part.

Fwd: Follow-up from ICANN61 Reading
by Joly MacFie May 1, 2018

May 1, 2018

Michael (below) attended our ICANN readout in NYC. He was at ICANN 61 in passing, and expressed his wish to participate more in ICANN affairs. I suggested he might join NARALO as an individual. He then told me he had wished to earlier, but on visiting the relevant page, found no actual method. I asked him to send me details. See below. This is something I made a fuss about a few years back. Surprised to see it is yet to be fixed. joly ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Michael Casadevall <mcasadevall(a)ubuntu.com> Date: Mon, Apr 30, 2018 at 9:46 PM Subject: Follow-up from ICANN61 Reading To: president(a)isoc-ny.org Hey Joly, As a follow-up to individual membership in NARALO, here's the current page from ICANN that describes the how's and whys. The NARALO section just simply stops, and I've been unable to find specifically what or how you become an individual member: https://atlarge.icann.org/get- involved/individual-member Thanks for your time tonight w/ running and managing the streams, Michael -- --------------------------------------------------------------- Joly MacFie 218 565 9365 Skype:punkcast -------------------------------------------------------------- -

Call for Workshop
by Glenn McKnight April 30, 2018

April 30, 2018

https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-call-for-workshop… IGF 2018 Call for Workshop Proposals *All stakeholders* are invited to submit proposals to hold workshops at the *13th Annual Meeting of the Internet Governance Forum (IGF <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/lexicon/8#IGF>)* to take place in November/December 2018. An announcement is expected imminently on the exact dates and venue of the meeting. *The deadline for **workshop submissions* <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-proposal…>* is 27 May 2018, 23:59 UTC.* *A Thematic Approach to the IGF Programme* Based on inputs from the IGF 2017 stocktaking process as well as the first 2018 IGF Open Consultations, and in line with outcomes of the earlier CSTD Working Group on IGF Improvements and the IGF Retreat organized by the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UNDESA), this year, many MAG <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/lexicon/8#MAG> members expressed their preference for having *more concrete, focused and cohesive discussions during the IGF annual meeting*, trying to avoid sessions that duplicate content and concepts, and reducing the number of parallel sessions. It was decided that taking *a more thematic approach* to the programme would be most likely to deliver the requested results. A *bottom-up, community-wide* *Call for Issues* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6037…> was held between 26 March and 13 April, during which stakeholders were asked to indicate their areas of interest (‘themes’) and suggest the issues (‘subthemes’) to feature in this year’s programme, including new or emerging ones. The *themes and proposed subthemes* for the meeting have therefore been preliminarily determined through the *more than 300 submissions* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6119…> received through this process. *IGF 2018 Workshops* The *IGF 2018 Call for Workshops* incorporates the results of the Call for Issues by inviting proposers to submit under the following *8 themes* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6119…> : *Cybersecurity, Trust & Privacy; Digital Inclusion & Accessibility; Emerging Technologies; Evolution of Internet Governance; Human Rights, Gender & Youth; Development, Innovation & Economic Issues; Media & Content; and Technical & Operational Topics.* In addition, proposers are invited to select from *more than* *50* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6132…> <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/613…> *subthemes* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6132…> classified under the themes. These cover a broad range of Internet governance interests and include topics as varied as* Access & Connectivity*, *Cyberdiplomacy*,* Encryption*,* Internet & the Environment*,* Local Content*, and *Virtual Reality*, among many others. Proposers may also* write in a subtheme of their choosing.* *Workshop Evaluations* The four major *criteria in the evaluation process* <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-review-a…> will centre around *Relevance, Content, Diversity, and Format* <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-session-…> of each proposal. Proposers are strongly advised to pay particular attention *to ensuring gender, regional and stakeholder diversity* within their organizing teams, as well as among their listed speakers, as these will be reviewed against diversity criteria <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-review-a…>, which is a key measure. Proposers are further advised that they should have a minimum of three speakers listed and to *limit their number of speakers to five* wherever possible, in particular when selecting a panel format, so as to ensure space in their session for participant engagement. While this is not a disqualifying criteria, excessive numbers of speakers will result in lower support for the proposal. Please note that *individual speakers will be limited to three sessions* after the selection process. *All proposers should consult the detailed documents below before making a submission.* Resource documents include an* abbreviated manual for proposers*, a *step-by-step overview of the screening and evaluation process by the Secretariat and MAG, *as well as *explanations on workshop formats and how they may impact evaluation criteria*. *IMPORTANT IGF 2018 WORKSHOP RESOURCES:* *> IGF 2018 Workshop Submission Form <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-proposal…>* *> **Short Manual for Proposers* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6132…> *>* *IGF 2018 Workshop Review Process and Criteria* <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-review-a…> *>* *Workshop Session Formats, Durations & Associated Criteria* <https://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/content/igf-2018-workshop-session-…> *>* *IGF 2018 Workshop Report Template* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/6132…> *>* *Statistics on Selected IGF 2017 Proposals* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/4931…> (reference document on last year's proposals) *>* *Statistics on All IGF 2017 Proposals Received* <http://www.intgovforum.org/multilingual/index.php?q=filedepot_download/4415…> (reference document on last year's proposals) *The final selection of workshops will take place during the IGF 2018 Second Open Consultations and MAG Meeting, scheduled on 11-13 July 2018 in Geneva, Switzerland.* Glenn McKnight NARALO Secretariat mcknight.glenn(a)gmail.com skype gmcknight twitter gmcknight 289-830 6259 .

Question about GDRP
by Eduardo Diaz April 30, 2018

April 30, 2018

A friend of mine quoted the following from an article written here (bullet #9): https://government.diginomica.com/2018/01/22/gdpr-compliance-here-are-the-1… *"Smaller firms – those defined as having 250 employees or less – do not have to comply with all GDPR rules as standard. If your organisation falls into this band, there’s no need to have documentation of why personal data is being collected and processed, the information you’re storing or how long for. Smaller firms are not required to maintain a record of processing activities unless this carries a risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, it is a regular occurrence, or it relates to certain data like criminal convictions and offences."* The question: Is this statement true or false. If false what 's the real thing? Thanks to whomever answers this. -ed
