Dear Working Group,
as mentioned in last week's DB-WG meeting, we will shortly be implementing the following changes:
- Do not include personal data in historical queries (notify, e-mail, address attributes). - Do not include person/role references in historical queries (admin-c, tech-c, ping-hdl, zone-c).
A legal review found we should not return historical contact details, as they may contain personal data, which is not in line with the purpose of the RIPE database or data protection legislation.
For background, Maria Stafyla from RIPE NCC Legal presented on this topic at RIPE 76: https://ripe76.ripe.net/presentations/101-GDPR-Database-WG-RIPE-76.pdf
