The following is excerpted from the applicant's response to question #18:

"The new .macys gTLD will operate as a restricted registry, in which Macy’s Inc (Macy’s) can create and control domain spaces that promote its Macy’s brand identity and authenticity. In this regard,.macys will be used by Macy’s to provide information, services and resources for personalised marketing purposes to consumers in a way that promotes trust, convenience and utility, with internet users assured of brand authenticity. The .macys gTLD will provide an authoritative internet space for Macy’s and, potentially, its affiliates and partners that are associated with the brand.
