The Complainant contends that the requirements of the Policy have been met and that the disputed domain names should be transferred to it. <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
FACTS ASSERTED BY THE COMPLAINANT AND NOT CONTESTED BY THE RESPONDENT:<\/p>\n
The Complainant is a company specializing in fashion- and lifestyle-related products, primarily for women, with a small selection for men. The Complainant’s goods are exclusively available through its online shop.<\/p>\n
The disputed domain name <sezane-ecommerce.com> redirects to a template website lacking any substantive content. The disputed domain name <sezane-fashion.com> is not used.<\/p>\n
The Complainant states that the disputed domain names are confusingly similar to its trademark “SEZANE” and its associated domain names.<\/p>\n
The Complainant asserts that the disputed domain names include the Complainant’s trademark in its entirety. The addition of the generic terms “ecommerce” and “fashion” is not sufficient to avoid the likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s trademark, as they directly relate to the Complainant’s business activities. The addition of the gTLD “.COM” is not sufficient to escape this finding, as it is a standard registration requirement.<\/p>\n
The Complainant also states that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain names.<\/p>\n
The Complainant asserts that the Respondent is not known as the disputed domain names and neither affiliated with nor authorized by the Complainant in any way. The Complainant contends that the Respondent has no rights or legitimate interests in respect of the disputed domain names. The Complainant does not carry out any activity for, nor has any business with the Respondent. Neither license nor authorization has been granted to the Respondent to make any use of the Complainant’s trademark SEZANE or apply for registration of the disputed domain names by the Complainant. <\/p>\n
Furthermore, the disputed domain name <sezane-fashion.com> is not used, which does not constitute a bona fide offering of goods and services or legitimate noncommercial or fair use.<\/p>\n
The Complainant states that the disputed domain names were registered and are being used in bad faith.<\/p>\n
The Complainant asserts that the disputed domain names contain the distinctive trademark SEZANE, which has been in use for many years and carries no generic or descriptive meaning. The Complainant asserts that the Respondent was aware of its trademark and deliberately sought to create a likelihood of confusion by impersonating the Complainant. Based on the distinctiveness and reputation of the Complainant's trademark, the Complainant argues that it is reasonable to conclude that the Respondent registered and used the domain names with full knowledge of the Complainant's trademark.<\/p>\n
The Complainant further states that because the disputed domain name <sezane-fashion.com> is not being used and incorporates the generic term “fashion” – which refers to the Complainant's business – the Respondent clearly registered the domain name in order to create a likelihood of confusion.<\/p>\n
The Complainant also asserts that the disputed domain name, <sezane-ecommerce.com>, has lacked substantive content since its registration, which is considered evidence of bad faith.<\/p>\n
