I can explain where I got this information:

"you really are owner of your domain, as explained on point 1 of our
contract,"
 -- http://gandi.net/whowe.html.en

"I. USE OF DOMAIN NAME AND GANDI SERVICES

1. 
The Client owns the Domain Name registered. Gandi simply acts on the Client's
behalf. Client acknowledges that Gandi services consist only of including in
the shared Domain Names database ..."
 -- http://gandi.net/contract.en.txt


Who knows how good that contract would be if push comes to shove;
but that's the contract I (and thousands of others) executed.
