.CO Internet has adopted stringent globally accepted best practices for the defense of trademark and cyber-squatting abuse, which includes the implementation of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) which has been defined and adopted by ICANN (Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers). We are committed to protecting the legal rights of both brand owners and domain investors, and to creating a safer, friendlier online experience for corporations, organizations, entrepreneurs and people from around the world.
If a person or entity claims that your domain name registration infringes on or violates their rights, an administrative proceeding under the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (UDRP) may apply to help resolve the claim. The UDRP was adopted by The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) for the quick and inexpensive resolution of domain name disputes and is a simple and fast process that trademark owners can initiate with an accredited Dispute Resolution Mediation center. .CO Internet uses the services provided by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), although other service providers may be added in the future.
It is your responsibility to determine whether a domain name registration infringes on or violates someone else's legal rights. This will likely be the case, for example, if the domain name is registered for the purpose of confusing, misleading or tricking the public; trading on the goodwill of someone else's brand; and/or for any other bad faith reason. In each of these cases, the domain name will likely be lost during a UDRP proceeding and returned to the rightful owner, resulting in the loss of your .CO domain investment.
If you’re not sure whether a proposed domain name registration would infringe on or violate someone else’s rights, please consult with a qualified attorney.
