Domains are business assets for many companies. Websites are a popular and effective way of attracting clients, disseminating corporate information, advertising and placing service platforms.
As a rule, companies oriented towards international markets register domain names in the upper segment domain zones: gTLD (.com, .net, .org, .edu, .info, .biz, etc.). However, the wider company’s business area is, the more chances it faces to come across a dispute over infringement of competitor’s trademark or to fall prey to cybersquatters.
Competitors may turn out to be trademark owners, which will allow them to use the UDRP procedure to file a claim seeking to invalidate the registration of a domain name, transfer of rights to, or amendment of a domain name. Moreover, competitors may petition national courts to seek compensation or damages.
Cybersquatters are those who unconscientiously register a domain name that is equal or similar to a renowned trademark, exclusively for the purpose of further re-selling the domain to the trademark owner.
