What is a domain name?
 is the address of a web site that is intended to be easily
identifiable and easy to remember, such as goolge.com,
or nift.ac.in
 domain names have become business identifiers and,
increasingly, even trademarks themselves, such as
amazon.com.
 By using existing trademarks for domain names -
sony.com, for example - businesses attract potential
customers to their websites.
What is the nature of the
disputes?
 Cybersquatting - pre-emptive registration of
trademarks by third parties as domain names.
Why so many disputes?
 No agreement within the Internet community that
would allow organizations that register domain names
to pre-screen the filing of potentially problematic
names.
 The increasing business value of domain names on the
Internet has led to more cybersquatting
How does the UDRP work?
 UDRP (Uniform Domain Resolution Policy)
 The UDRP permits complainants to file a case with a
resolution service provider, specifying:
 the domain name in question,
 the respondent or holder of the domain name,
 the registrar with whom the domain name was
registered,
 the grounds for the complaint.
What factors guide the panelists'
decisions?
 Whether the domain name is identical or confusingly
similar to a trademark or service mark in which the
complainant has rights.
 Whether the respondent has any rights or legitimate
interests in the domain name
 Whether the domain name was registered and is being
used in bad faith
