The Complainant has, to the satisfaction of the Panel, shown the disputed domain name is identical or confusingly similar to a trademark or service mark in which the Complainant has rights (within the meaning of paragraph 4(a)(i) of the Policy).<\/p>", "no_rights_or_legitimate_interests": "

The language of the registration agreement is Chinese.<\/p>\n

The Complainant has requested that the language of proceedings was English.<\/p>\n

Having considered all circumstances of the case, the Panel has decided that it would be fair and equitable to all parties to have the language of the proceedings be English as:<\/p>\n

The Respondent did not submit a Response and did not object to the change of language;<\/p>\n

English is a widespread language around the world and is a global means of communication;<\/p>\n

The disputed domain name is in Latin characters and contains the English word “rewards”, which indicates that the Respondent is familiar with the English language and is comfortable in using it;<\/p>\n

The Complainant is a German entity which will require translation services, which would cause significant expenses and delays. This would be unfair to the Complainant, as these fees are not recoverable, and would also cause unnecessary cost, and delay the proceedings without due cause.<\/p>\n

The Panel is satisfied that all procedural requirements under UDRP were met and there is no other reason why it would be inappropriate to provide a decision.<\/p>", "decision": "Accepted", "panelists": [ "Jonathan Agmon" ], "date_of_panel_decision": "2025-02-10 00:00:00", "informal_english_translation": "
