Dear Advisory Committee representative,

This is a W3C Patent Policy Call for Exclusions for the following
Recommendation Track document:

- Clear Site Data
   (http://www.w3.org/TR/2015/WD-clear-site-data-20150804/),
   exclusion opportunity ending on  1 January 2016 23:59 UTC


This specification was produced by the Web Application Security Working
Group.

If you do not wish to exclude patent claims during this exclusion
opportunity, no further action is required. Member participants who
think their organization may have patent claims to exclude should
contact their Advisory Committee Representative.

Participants made a Royalty-Free licensing commitment upon joining this
Working Group. With the publication of this document, per section 4.1 of
the Patent Policy [1] Participants have an opportunity until 1 January
2016 23:59 UTC to exclude patent claims reading on this Recommendation
track document. Excluded claims are not subject to the licensing
requirements of the W3C Patent Policy for this document. For more
information about exclusions, please see

To make exclusions, please use the following form:
  https://www.w3.org/2004/01/pp-impl/49309/exclude

The Patent Policy anticipates that the document will evolve during the
90 days following the first publication.  Per section 4.1 of the Patent
Policy [1], whatever draft is available on  2 November 2015 establishes
the reference material [3] for the purposes of this exclusion
opportunity.Just after  2 November 2015, we will send a reminder and
identify the reference draft. Due to the anticipated instability of the
document prior to  2 November 2015, Participants may wish to exclude any
claims only after publication of the reference draft (and no later than
the end of the exclusion opportunity).

Per section 4.2 of the Patent Policy [2], a Participant may resign from
the Working Group before  2 November 2015 and be excused from all licensing
commitments arising out of Working Group participation.

To resign from the Working Group before  2 November 2015, please use the
following form:
