    "factual_background": "FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nComplainant, through its subsidiaries and licensees, operates websites offering online gaming and betting with licenses issued in the Philippines, Curacao, UK, Ireland and Kenya. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant uses the name DAFABET to operate its business, which consists of several gaming sites across the internet. It operates under the name “DAFABET”, which is also its trademark. Its domain names, such as <dafabet.com> <dafabet.co.ke> also incorporate the DAFABET trademark.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant has registered its rights over the trademark “DAFABET” in the EU, as well as various jurisdictions, including Australia and Israel, with the trademark “D DAFABET”.\r\n\r\n“DAFABET” is also known through its various sponsorships of various football clubs.\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name was registered on February 28, 2017.",
    "other_legal_proceedings": "The Panel is not aware of any other pending or decided legal proceedings relating to the disputed domain name.",
    "no_response_filed": "Complainant:\r\n\r\nThe disputed domain name is identical and confusingly similar to the trademark owned by the Complainant as it uses \"DAFABET\" as a prefix with the generic term \"city\".\r\n\r\nThe Complainant is the owner of intellectual property rights pertaining to “DAFABET” due to its registration in various jurisdiction and its usage and notoriety. Complainant denies any direct connection with Respondent that Respondent’s use of the Complainant’s intellectual property in the disputed domain name and website are unauthorized and illegal.\t\r\n\r\nOn the other hand, there is no evidence that the Respondent is commonly known by the disputed domain name. Respondent will not be able to show prior usage, registration or any right to use the mark “DAFABET” for its website.\r\nThe Respondent’s registration has been made in bad faith as it will not be able to establish a reason as to why it uses the trademark \"DAFABET\" in the disputed domain name. The only conceivable reason for using the trademark \"DAFABET\" in the disputed domain name is to sell the disputed domain name to the Complainant. \r\n\r\nFurther, the use of a privacy service to conceal the identity of the registrant is obviously resorted to avoid the discovery of the fact that the respondent has repeatedly taken advantage of third party trademarks by registering domain names identical or confusingly similar and then offering it for sale. The Respondent is well aware that the Complainant is the owner of the mark “DAFABET” because of, registrations in various jurisdictions; and goodwill and notoriety of the trademarks.\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT: \r\n\r\nNo administratively compliant Response was filed.",
