Google gets hands on GoogleWebAcademy.com domain

An arbitrator with the National Arbitration Forum has recently awarded Google the domain name GoogleWebAcademy.com .The company submitted a complaint with the National Arbitration Forum on September 18,2012,asserting legal rights over the disputed domain name.

Google owns many trademark registrations for the “Google” mark.Therefore,it is more than obvious that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to its trademark.The company also managed to demonstrate that the respondent had no rights and legitimate interest in the disputed domain name and that the respondent registered and used the disputed domain name in bad faith .

“Complainant has not licensed or otherwise authorized Respondent to use the GOOGLE mark.

Respondent is not employing the disputed domain name to make a bona fide offering of goods or services.

Respondent has no rights to or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name.

Respondent employs the domain name to redirect Internet users to a website that prominently displays a header and text that is intended to deceive users who are seeking Complainant’s Web Academy website.

Respondent offers these users, for Respondent’s profit, educational products that purport to be legitimate GOOGLE Web Academy offerings.

Respondent registered and is using the disputed domain name in bad faith, in that Respondent knew of Complainant’s rights in the GOOGLE mark when it registered the domain name, and in that Respondent uses the domain name to generate revenue using pay-per-click advertising.”

The respondent failed the submit a response in this proceeding.

The Panel ordered the disputed domain name to be transferred from the respondent to the complainant.
