Recommendation #16: ICANN, in consultation with Registrars, ALAC and other interested parties, will develop educational materials about how to properly steward a domain name and how to prevent unintended loss. Such material may include registrant responsibilities and the gTLD domain life-cycle and guidelines for keeping domain name records current.
Recommendation #17: In the event that ICANN gives reasonable notice to Registrars that ICANN has published web content as described in Recommendation 16:
- Registrars, who have a web presence, must provide a link to the ICANN content on any website it may operate for domain name registration or renewal clearly displayed to its Registered Name
- Holders at least as clearly as its links to policies or notifications required to be displayed under ICANN Consensus Policies.
- Registrars may also host similar material adapted to their specific practices and processes.
- Registrar must point to the ICANN material in a communication sent to the registrant immediately following initial registration as well as in the mandated annual WHOIS reminder.
