It is the market leader in steel for use in automotive, construction, household appliances and packaging with operations in more than 60 countries.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant’s official website is located at the domain name <arcelormittal.com>, registered on 27 January 2006.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent registered the disputed domain name on 10 December 2019. It does not resolve to an active website.\r\n",

    "no_response_filed": "NO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.\r\n\r\n\r\nPARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant submits that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the ARCELORMITTAL trademark in which the Complainant has rights, because the only differences between them are the addition of the letter “n” and the deletion of the letter “t”, and these differences are not sufficient to preclude a finding that the domain name is confusingly similar to the ARCELORMITTAL trademark. The disputed domain name contains an obvious misspelling of the Complainant’s trademark, which makes it a clear case of typosquatting.\r\n\r\nAccording to the Complainant, the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name, because it has not been authorized by the Complainant to use the ARCELORMITTAL trademark and is not related to the Complainant, and the disputed domain name does not correspond to the name of the Respondent. The Complainant adds that the disputed domain name is a typosquatted version of the ARCELORMITTAL trademark, and was registered in an attempt to take advantage of Internet users’ typographical errors. \r\n\r\nThe Complainant contends that the disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. According to the Complainant, the ARCELORMITTAL trademark is widely known around the world, and the Respondent chose and registered the disputed domain name, which is a misspelling of the ARCELORMITTAL trademark, with knowledge of this trademark and in order to make it confusingly similar to the trademark.\r\n\r\nThe Complainant points out that the website at the disputed domain name is currently inactive, and contends that it is not possible to conceive of any plausible active use of the disputed domain name by the Respondent that would not be illegitimate.\r\n\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nThe Respondent did not reply to the Complainant's contentions and did not submit any arguments or evidence in its defence.  \r\n\r\n",
