[lac-discuss-es] Fwd: ICANN News Alert -- Notice of Potential Grant of Registrar Data Retention Waiver Request

Mie Mayo 7 23:42:58 UTC 2014

Estimados,

Reenvió esta información que ha publicado ICANN sobre un tema que estuvimos
siguiendo y discutiendo en esta lista: Descripción de Especificaciones de
elementos de retención de datos y propósitos potencialmente legítimos para
la recolección/retención de datos -RAA 2013.

Este es un ejemplo práctico de este tema: un registrador que está
solicitando exención a la retención de datos. Además, si esta exención
fuera aprobada por ICANN se podría extender a los demás registradores de
dicho país por violar sus leyes de protección de datos. El registrador es
Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd. y el país Irlanda.
Este asunto está abierto ahora a comentario público.

Como recordarán yo había sugerido que desde mi punto de vista, este era un
asunto que nuestras organizaciones podrían seguir a nivel nacional, ya que
algunos países de nuestra región no cuentan con leyes de protección de
datos, y los que tienen leyes, tienen algunas diferencias entre ellas.
En nuestro caso no hemos podido darle seguimiento a este asunto. ¿Algunas
de sus organizaciones ha trabajado en el tema? Sería interesante conocer si
lo han hecho y de qué manera, para tener algunos modelos de nuestra región.

Saludos cordiales,
Fatima Cambronero

Notice of Potential Grant of Registrar Data Retention Waiver Request

7 May 2014

Blacknight Internet Solutions Ltd. ("Blacknight") submitted a data
retention waiver request under the 2013 Registrar Accreditation Agreement
(the "2013 RAA") on the basis of its contention that compliance with the
data collection and/or retention requirements of the Specification violates
applicable law.

The Waiver Request was accompanied by a legal opinion from Irish counsel
asserting that compliance with the data collection and/or retention
requirements of the Specification violates Ireland Data Retention Acts 1998
- 2003.

Following receipt of the Waiver Request, and in accordance with the 2013
RAA, ICANN, through its staff and legal counsel, and Blacknight, through
its staff and legal counsel, discussed the matter in good faith in an
effort to reach a mutually acceptable resolution of the matter.

The outcome of those discussions is that Blacknight is seeking a waiver
with respect to Sections 1.1.1 through 1.1.8 of the Specification that
would reduce from two years to one year the period for which those
specified data elements must be retained after the Registrar's sponsorship
of the Registration ends, and is seeking a waiver with respect to Sections
1.2.1 through 1.2.3 of the Specification that would reduce from 180 days to
90 days the period for which those specified data elements must be retained
following the relevant interaction.

ICANN is posting Blacknight's proposed waiver for a period of thirty (30)
days to seek feedback and input from the community on the proposed data
retention waiver. After the thirty (30) day period following this posting
has expired, ICANN will consider all feedback and input received before
making a final determination on whether to grant the Waiver Request.

The scope of the proposed waiver would be to permit Blacknight to maintain
the information specified in Sections 1.1.1 through 1.1.8 of the
Specification for the duration of its sponsorship of the Registration and
for a period of one (1) additional year thereafter rather than two (2)
additional years thereafter, and to maintain the information specified in
Sections 1.2.1 through 1.2.3 of the Specification for a period of 90 days
after the relevant interaction rather than for 180 days thereafter. In all
other respects the terms of the Specification would remain AS-IS.

The specific change to the Specification would be that, for the duration of
the Waiver, the retention requirement of Section 1.1 of the Data Retention
Specification be changed from "two additional years" to "one additional
year" and the retention requirement of Section 1.2 of the Data Retention
Specification would be changed from "one hundred eighty (180) days" to
"ninety (90) days."

If ICANN does make a final determination to grant the Waiver Request sought
by Blacknight, the provisions of Section 3 of the Specification would apply
to similar waivers requested by other registrars located in the same
jurisdiction. Section 3 of the Specification provides as follows:

If (i) ICANN has previously waived compliance with the requirements of any
requirement of this Data Retention Specification in response to a Waiver
Request from a registrar that is located in the same jurisdiction as
Registrar and (ii) Registrar is subject to the same applicable law that
gave rise to ICANN's agreement to grant such wavier, Registrar may request
that ICANN to grant a similar waiver, which request shall be approved by
ICANN, unless ICANN provides Registrar with a reasonable justification for
not approving such request, in which case Registrar may thereafter make an
Wavier Request pursuant to Section 2 of this Data Retention Specification.

A public comment period will remain open until 23:59 UTC, 7 June 2014.
Public comments will be available for consideration by ICANN staff and the
ICANN Board.
