    "factual_background": "The  Complaint is based on the following grounds:\r\n\r\nA. The disputed domain name <NUNGESSERGMBH.COM> is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark in which the Complainant has rights.\r\n\r\n• The Complainant is the registered owner of the european trademark no. 013219795 “Nungesser” registered on March 3, 2015 for goods and services in classes 6, 21, 29 30, 31, 35, 42.\r\n\r\n• The Complainant is a commodity trader for baked seeds, nuts and other specialties. The Complainant registered class 6 for “preserving boxes of metal, class 21 for “preserve glasses”, class 29 for “marmalade; oils and fats; processed fruits, Fungi and vegetables (including nuts and pulses)”, class 30 for “natural starches for food; processed grains, starches and goods made thereof, baking preparations and yeasts; Spices; Salts, seasonings, flavourings and condiments”, class 35 for “wholesale services in relation to fodder for animals; Wholesale services in relation to lubricants; Wholesale services in relation to foodstuffs” and class 42 for “constructing an internet platform for electronic commerce”.\r\n\r\n• The disputed domain name registered in January 2018 is confusingly similar to the Complainants trademark where it incorporates the Complainant´s trademark in its entirety. In case at hand, the Complainant´s registered trademark “NUNGESSER” is fully included in the disputed domain name. It is true that the disputed domain name <NUNGESSERGMBH.COM> contains an additional generic term “gmbh” and the gTLD.com none of which distinguish the disputed domain name from the Complainant´s trademark.\r\n\r\n\r\nB. The Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name.\r\n\r\n• The Complainant believes that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name since, to the best of the Complainant´s knowledge, the Respondent is not commercially linked to the Complainant. Furthermore, the Complainant informs that it never granted the Respondent any authorization, consent, right or license to use the trademark “NUNGESSER” within the disputed domain name or in any other way. Additionally, the Complainant has made research and found no trademarks or any other rights owned by the Respondent on the “NUNGESSERGMBH” or “NUNGESSER” term.\r\n\r\n• It is not clear why the Respondent must use the trademark of the Complainant. The Respondent could use any other name for his domain. \r\n\r\n• Before any notice to the Respondent of the dispute, there is no evidence of the Respondent´s use of, or demonstrable preparations to use, the disputed domain name or a name corresponding to the domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods or services.\r\n\r\n• The Respondent is not commonly known by the disputed domain name.\r\n\r\n• The Respondent is not making a legitimate non-commercial or fair use of the disputed domain name, without intent for commercial gain to misleadingly divert consumers or to tarnish the trademark or service at issue.\r\n\r\n\r\nC. The disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. \r\n\r\n• The Complainant contends that the disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. In particular, the Complainant states that “NUNGESSER” trademark has enjoyed wide-spread extensive use and is widely well-known and that, accordingly, it seems inconceivable that the Respondent was not aware of the Complainants prior rights when the disputed domain name was registered. This is especially true, considering the fact that the Respondent is using the old address of the Complainant´s company “NUNGESSER” – “Am Steimel 12; GER-64397 Modautal”. In the first known mail from the Respondent, he offered the goods mentioned on the domain name <NUNGESSERGMBH.COM> for a certain price without sending an invoice. On May 22, 2018 the Complainant tried to order goods offered on the domain name <NUNGESSERGMBH.COM>. The Respondent then sent an invoice. Recently the Complainant received an e-mail from the police Südhessen (Germany) that the operator of the domain <NUNGESSERGMBH.com> is still active. They continue to send e-mails including invoices to requesting customers. All e-mails name different contact persons, addresses, e-mails, bank account contacts or phone numbers. It is therefore clear, in the Complainant´s view, that the Respondent had the Complainant or its trademarks in mind when registering the disputed domain name. \r\n\r\n• The Complainant sees no possible way whatsoever that the Respondent would use the disputed domain name in connection with a bona fide offer of products or services. Indeed, any use of the “NUNGESSER” trademark without authorization would amount to trademark infringement and damage to the repute of the trademark. In the Complainants view, the sole detention of the disputed domain name by the Respondent in an attempt to prevent the Complainant from reflecting its trademark in a domain name, is a strong evidence of bad faith. According to the Complainant, any actual use of the disputed domain name by the Respondent would amount to bad faith active use.\r\n\r\n• In order to hide the identity of the domain holder, the Respondent registered the disputed domain name via privacyguardian.org. PrivacyGuardian is an organization to hide the information of a domain registrant when buying a domain name. \r\n\r\n• By using the disputed domain name the Respondent has intentionally attempted to attract, for gaining, Internet users, to create a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant´s mark “NUNGESSER” as to the source and affiliation of the Respondent´s website or location.\r\n\r\n• The Respondent registered the disputed domain name primarily for the purpose of disrupting the business of the Complainant.
