The Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) provides trademark owners with a streamlined mechanism to seek transfer or cancellation of domain names that infringe their rights. UDRP proceedings are commonly used to address cybersquatting, phishing and fraud, counterfeit and gray-market sales, and impersonation.
To prevail, a complainant must establish all three of the following:
- The domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark in which the complainant has rights.
- The registrant has no rights or legitimate interests in the domain name.
- The domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith.
