Subject: [SubPro-IRT] fraud and deceptive conduct

Hello All,

The RySG has been working on some text that is acceptable to us and we believe to be consistent with the policy recommendation. We ]set that text out below for your consideration.

 

(e) Registry Operator shall not engage in the following fraudulent or deceptive business practices under this Agreement for the TLD:

i. Making false or misleading statements about registry services required by ICANN to be implemented by the registries where the false or misleading statement  is material.

ii. Implementing any Critical Function within the TLD with the effect of circumventing requirements under this Agreement or Consensus Policy or Temporary  Policy.

iii. Using deceptive advertising or marketing practices concerning the performance of Registry Services required by ICANN to be implemented by the registries;  or

iv. Any other fraudulent or deceptive conduct that ICANN determines in its reasonable discretion based on sufficient and verifiable evidence is a threat  to the Security and Stability of registry services required by ICANN to be implemented by the registries or the DNS.

Cheers,

CD
