    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant’s Bolloré Group of companies was founded in 1822. Based on a diversification strategy it now holds strong positions around three business lines, namely (i) Transportation and Logistics, (ii) Communication and Media, and (iii) Electricity Storage and Solutions. It is one of the 500 largest companies in the world. While listed on the Paris Stock Exchange, the majority interest of the Group's stock is still controlled by the Bolloré family. \r\n\r\nFor its main corporate website the Complainant uses the domain name <bollore.com>, which was registered on July 25, 1997.\r\n\r\nComplainant contends that Respondent is not affiliated with Complainant nor authorized by Complainant in any way to use the trademark “BOLLORE”. Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with the Respondent.\r\n\r\nComplainant asserts that Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the domain name <bollore.shop> and that he is not related in any way to the Complainant’s business. \r\n\r\nOn September 22, 2017, an e-mail cease and desist letter was sent to Respondent, to which Respondent did not reply.\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name redirects to a registrar parking page which states that the domain name is on sale and invites visitors to “make an offer”.",

    "informal_english_translation": "Complainant claims to be the owner of various \"BOLLORE\" trademarks, including the international trademark registration no. 704697 “Bolloré” (with design), issued December 11, 1998, which is protected in numerous countries and covers various goods and services in international classes 16, 17, 34, 35, 36, 38, and 39. \r\n\r\nA different legal entity named “BOLLORE PROTECTION”, which also has a different street address than Complainant, owns the international trademark registration no. 595172 “BOLLORE” (word), issued August 14, 1992, which is protected in various countries and covers numerous goods and services in international classes 06, 09, 11, 12, 13, 19, 20, 37, 41, 42. The Complaint does not explain, however, the relationship between the Complainant’s company “BOLLORE” and this other company “BOLLORE PROTECTION”, so it remains unclear whether they belong to the same group of companies. The Panel has therefore decided to disregard this international trademark registration no. 595172 “BOLLORE” (word).\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on September 19, 2017, i.e. the Complainant’s international trademark registration no. 704697 “Bolloré” (with design) predates the registration of the disputed domain name.",
