The Complainant, Siemens Trademark GmbH & Co. KG, is a trademark holding company within the Siemens Group, responsible for licensing the trademarks at issue. It is a subsidiary of Siemens Aktiengesellschaft, the ultimate parent company of the Siemens Group.<\/p>\n
The Siemens Group, headquartered in Berlin and Munich, reported a turnover of EUR 75.9 billion and employs over 310,000 people across more than 190 countries. Its areas of activity include, among others, medicine, automation, energy, transportation, logistics, and information and communication technologies.<\/p>\n
The Complainant’s trademarks “SIEMENS” and “SIEMENS Healthineers” are used in connection with medical services, equipment, and solutions, as shown on its official websites (e.g. siemens-healthineers.com and new.siemens.com). In addition to registered trademarks, there are also domain names <siemens-healthineers.com> and <siemens-healthineer.com> which belong legally to the other member of Siemens Group companies, namely to Siemens Healthcare GmbH.<\/p>\n
On the other hand, Siemens Healthineers, another Siemens Group company, is one of the world’s largest medical equipment manufacturers, employing approximately 54,000 people.<\/p>\n
The “SIEMENS” trademark is widely used and has a considerable reputation. Moreover, the trademarks “SIEMENS” and “SIEMENS Healthineers” are exclusively associated with the Siemens Group, particularly with Siemens Healthineers AG.<\/p>\n
In the Complainant's view, the disputed domain name <<\/span>siemens-healthineerscareers.com><\/em> is confusingly similar to the Complainant marks “SIEMENS” and “SIEMENS Healthineers”. In particular, the Complainant notes that the mark “SIEMENS Healthineers” is integrally reproduced inside the disputed domain while the additional word “careers” merely indicates to the consumer that this is a domain name of Siemens Healthineers used in relation to careers\/human resources topics.<\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, according to the Complainant, there is no evidence that the Respondent is commonly known by the disputed domain name or a name corresponding to the disputed domain name, nor that the Respondent is making a bona fide offering of goods or services or preparing to use the disputed domain name in connection with a bona fide offering of goods and services. The Complainant also points out that the nature of the disputed domain name carries a risk of implied affiliation between the Respondent and the Siemens Group, which seems to be the Respondent’s actual intention in registering this domain name.<\/p>\n In addition, t<\/span>he Complainant considers that the Respondent deliberately registered the domain name <<\/span>siemens-healthineerscareers.com> <\/em>to exploit the reputation and goodwill of the trademarks SIEMENS and SIEMENS Healthineers and also contends that the Respondent went beyond passive registration by actively impersonating Siemens Healthineers personnel through fraudulent e-mail addresses associated with the disputed domain. In particular, the Complainant states that the Respondent approached a job applicant in July 2025, impersonating a Siemens Healthineers human resources employee (Denise Cook), and inviting him to a supposed interview process with Siemens Healthineers.<\/span><\/p>\n Finally, the Complainant further notes that the Respondent is using a privacy protection service to conceal its identity, which reinforces the conclusion of registration in bad faith. <\/p>",
