COMMUNITY-BASED PURPOSE OF THE APPLIED-FOR GTLD:

The community-based purpose of the .католик TLD is to enable the TLD Catholic Community to achieve the mission⁄purpose of the TLD, which is to: disseminate the teachings, message and values of the Catholic Church to its own members and to the wider global community by creating a dedicated, authoritative online space for the exclusive use of the Catholic Church and its constituent institutions and for the benefit of its adherents globally.
The .католик TLD offers members of the TLD Catholic Community the opportunity to register domain names in an authenticated space and use these to promote and achieve the mission⁄purpose of the TLD.

INTENDED REGISTRANTS IN THE .католик TLD:

The .католик TLD is a dedicated and authoritative communications structure for the exclusive use of the TLD Catholic Community. The PCCS, a member of this Community, is ideally situated to facilitate the fulfillment of this purpose as the sole registrant given that it is specifically tasked by the Apostolic Constitution Pastor Bonus with the dissemination of teachings, messages and values of the Catholic Church through communications media. Registrations in the .католик TLD will therefore be made exclusively by the PCCS.

INTENDED END-USERS OF THE .католик TLD:

Through its role as sole registrant, the PCCS serves as representative of the many members of the TLD Catholic Community, who collectively are the intended end-users of the .католик TLD. Such end-users are the members of territorial communities, membership-based communities and institutionalized activity structures of the Catholic Church.
All domain name registrations in the .католик TLD will be registered to, and maintained by, the PCCS for the exclusive use of the PCCS and of the other members of the TLD Catholic Community as defined above.

LASTING NATURE OF COMMUNITY BASED PURPOSE:

The purpose of the .католик TLD is to enable the PCCS and the other members of the TLD Catholic Community to disseminate the teachings, message and values of the Catholic Church. As established by the centuries long history of the Catholic Church, the TLD Catholic Community itself and its purpose are of a lasting nature.

ACTIVITIES BY PCCS IN SERVICE OF THE COMMUNITY BASED PURPOSE:

As explained above in the context of accountability, the PCCS has a long-established relationship with other members of the .католик TLD Community. This relationship involves the ongoing presence of the PCCS at various assemblies and meetings of members of the .католик TLD Community, particularly those responsible for communications. The rollout and development of the .католик TLD will become a particular focus for these established activities. These meetings and assemblies will provide the PCCS with the opportunity to explain and promote to other members of the TLD Catholic Community the .католик TLD and its use as a tool in social communication. On the basis of its success in carrying out its existing mission, the PCCS is confident that the .католик TLD will be viewed as a natural extension of this existing mission. The PCCS is also confident that the .католик TLD will be warmly welcomed by the TLD Catholic Community because it addresses a perceived need to assure the authentication of the Catholic presence in the online environment.
