    "factual_background": "Complainant states that it is “a diversified group of industrial companies structured by a strong corporate culture” with businesses “centered on three sectors of activity: construction, with Bouygues Construction, Bouygues Immobilier, and Colas; and telecoms and media, with French TV channel TF1 and Bouygues Telecom.” Complainant further states that it operates in more than 80 countries and has “net profit attributable to the Group” in the amount of 696 million euros. \r\n\r\nThe Disputed Domain Name was created on August 31, 2021, and is not being used in connection with an active website, although Complainant states that “there are several active MX records connected to the disputed domain name.”\r\n\r\n\r\nComplainant contends, in relevant part, as follows:\r\n\r\nParagraph 4(a)(i): Complainant states that the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the BOUYGUES Trademark and the BOUYGUES TRAVAUX PUBLICS Trademark because it includes both of those trademarks in their entirety.\r\n\r\nParagraph 4(a)(ii): Complainant states that Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the Disputed Domain Name because, inter alia, “Respondent is not identified in the Whois database as the disputed domain name”; “Respondent is not affiliated with nor authorized by the Complainant in any way”; “[n]either license nor authorization has been granted to the Respondent to make any use of the Complainant’s trademarks”; and “Respondent did not make any use of disputed domain name since its registration.”\r\n\r\nParagraph 4(a)(iii): Complainant states that the Disputed Domain Name was registered and is being used in bad faith because, inter alia, “given the distinctiveness of the Complainant's trademarks and its reputation, it is reasonable to infer that the Respondent, a French organization, has registered and used the domain name with full knowledge of the Complainant's trademark”; and “although the domain name appears to be unused, it has been set up with MX records… which suggests that it may be actively used for email purpose.”\r\n",
