'''Vertical Integration''' ('''VI''', or '''Cross Ownership''') is a business structure in which the various functions of the [[Registry]] Operator and the [[Registrar]] are handled by a single body. This single body is either owned or is under supervision of the same company that supports the specific [[gTLD]]; alternatively, the controlling body can be a partnered company that is given the contract of the gTLD. The Registry Operator is not required to provide equivalent access and non-discriminatory access to non-affiliated registrars to sell names under its gTLD.
[[Data Escrow]] is the act of storing data with a neutral third party in case of [[registry]] or [[registrar]] failure, accreditation termination, or accreditation relapse without renewal. ICANN requires all registrars and gTLD registries to contract with a data escrow provider in order to safeguard registrants. Both registry and registry escrows follow the same system: a weekly full deposit on sundays, and a partial deposit on all other days containing all new data since the last full deposit.

TLDs with signed Registry Agreements
As the expansion of the Domain Name space becomes a reality, dozens of new gTLDs are joining the ranks of current TLDs by signed Registry Agreements (RAs) with ICANN. Signing a contract is a significant step towards the delegation of a new TLD, and ICANNWiki has an up-to-date list of TLDs that have signed RAs.

Article of the Week

Data Escrow
Data Escrow is the act of storing data with a neutral third party in case of registry or registrar failure, accreditation termination, or accreditation relapse without renewal. ICANN requires all registrars and gTLD registries to contract with a data escrow provider in order to safeguard registrants. Both registry and registry escrows follow the same system: a weekly full deposit on sundays, and a partial deposit on all other days containing all new data since the last full deposit.
