The Centerโ€™s services include administering second-level domain name disputes for generic Top-Level Domains (gTLDs) to which the UDRP applies. The Center is the leading provider of dispute resolution services under the WIPO-initiated, ICANN (๐˜๐˜ฏ๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ต ๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ฑ๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜ต๐˜ช๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ง๐˜ฐ๐˜ณ ๐˜ˆ๐˜ด๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜จ๐˜ฏ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฅ ๐˜•๐˜ข๐˜ฎ๐˜ฆ๐˜ด ๐˜ข๐˜ฏ๐˜ฅ ๐˜•๐˜ถ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ด)

Which Policy is Applicable to My Dispute?

๐Ÿ‘‰The Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy – UDRP is applicable to second-level domain name registrations in the following gTLDs: .aero, .asia, .biz, .cat, .com, .coop, .info, .jobs, .mobi, .museum, .name, .net, .org, .pro, .tel and travel. The UDRP also applies to all New generic Top-Level Domains- gTLDs.

๐Ÿ‘‰Policies and procedures other than the UDRP may also be applicable to some of the above-mentioned gTLDs. For example, there are two dispute resolution policies potentially applicable to second-level domain name registrations within the .name space, one being the UDRP and the other the Eligibility Requirements Dispute Resolution Policy (ERDRP).

๐Ÿ‘‰Some registries have also put in place Rights Protection Mechanisms (RPMs) such as a โ€œsunriseโ€ procedure during their pre-launch phase by which rights holders may defensively register or object to the registration of domain names in certain circumstances.

WIPO Activities Related to New gTLDs

Following ICANNโ€™s announcement of plans to broadly expand the present number of gTLDs, WIPO has been collaborating with ICANN constituents in seeking to ensure that intellectual property, and in particular trademark law, is appropriately respected in the event the introduction of New gTLDs proceeds as envisioned by internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers – icann.

This collaboration has inter alia taken the form of WIPOโ€™s policy input to ICANN including proposals and further input on trademark-based dispute resolution procedures which aim to respect trademark rights while striking a balance with the practical interests and legitimate expectations of the Domain Name System actors.

An arbitral award rendered by WIPO is attached for reference.
