SSAC Report on Urgent Requests in the gTLD Registration Data Policy (R3)SAC122

Phase 2 | Understanding


Description:

ICANN org should acquire and document data regarding Urgent Requests and make high-level information available to the community for future consideration.

Specifically, the SSAC recommends the data made available to the community must include at least the following metrics:

  • a. Number of Urgent Requests received at registrars and registry operators;
  • b. Expediency with which Urgent Requests were reviewed, evaluated, and handled;
  • c. Percentage of Urgent Requests classified as spam, not urgent, or otherwise invalid;
  • d. Counts of requests handled and not handled within the contractual requirements (i.e., compliance statistics).

The data collected must be comprehensive enough for ICANN org to examine a registrar or registry operator’s handling of Urgent Requests for compliance purposes.
