[[File:KNIPP.JPG‎|300px|right]]'''[[Knipp Medien und Kommunikation GmbH]]''' is an [[ICANN]] accredited registrar based in Germany. The company has 25 employees and is managed by twin brothers, [[Dietmar Knipp]] and [[Elmar Knipp]]. Knipp Medien und Kommunikation GmbH is a spin-off of another company, which was founded by Dietmar, known as Knipp EDV gesteuerter Lichtsatz. The first company provided automated phototypesetting and computer-aided publishing services.

The '''[[Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data]]''' (adopted by the ICANN Board on 17 May 2018) established temporary requirements for gTLD registry operators and registrars to comply with the European Union's General Data Protection Regulation ([[GDPR]]) without breaking existing ICANN contractual requirements and community-developed policies. The Temporary Specification provides a single, unified interim model that ensures a common framework for handling registration data and maintaining the WHOIS system while the GNSO determines whether to adopt it as a consensus policy or develop an alternative policy. ICANN's stated objective of the Temporary Specification is to comply with the GDPR, while maintaining the WHOIS system to the greatest extent possible. The [[Expedited Policy Development Process on the Temporary Specification for gTLD Registration Data]] followed, one of whose outputs has led to a discussion over whether ICANN should offer an [[SSAD]].
