The Complainant’s main company domain name is <hkscan.com>.\r\n\r\nThe Respondent has registered the domain name <hkscanswedenab.com> on 14 January 2021. The disputed domain name resolves to a website displaying an online store, offering a wide range of consumer goods including food products. Said website refers to the Complainant’s subsidiary, HKScan Sweden AB and includes the same address, as listed on the Complainant’s main website.",

    "no_response_filed": "PARTIES' CONTENTIONS:\r\n\r\nCOMPLAINANT:\r\n\r\nThe Complainant considers the disputed domain name to be confusingly similar to trademarks in which it has rights. The Complainant claims that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain name. According to the Complainant, the Respondent does not use the disputed domain name in connection with any legitimate use. Also, according to the Complainant, the Respondent has not been authorized to register or use the disputed domain name. Finally, the Complainant considers that the disputed domain name was registered and is being used in bad faith. The Complainant contends that the Respondent registered and has been using the disputed domain name with the intention to attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to the Respondent’s website, creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s registered and well-known HKSCAN trademark and company name as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, and endorsement of the Respondent’s web site. The purpose and registration of the disputed domain name has also been to cause disruption to the Complainant’s business in Sweden and elsewhere, according to the Complainant.\r\n\r\n\r\nRESPONDENT:\r\n\r\nNO ADMINISTRATIVELY COMPLIANT RESPONSE HAS BEEN FILED.",
