[bc-gnso] RV: Pending trademark claim on XXXX

["Chris Chaplow" <chris@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just thought BC members might want to see wording of an early notice TM notice 
on a new gTLD.

It is actually a registrar pre-registration on general registration of a domain 
against a mark that my client has in the TMCH. Sunrise registrations are about 
150€ and general registration is 30€ so to protect a brand that is not in the 
worldwide spotlight this is a more economical option. (I edited out the domain 
name) 

 

 




        
Chris Chaplow, important information inside regarding a trademark claim and 
your domain.




 


Early notice:
Pending trademark claim

Dear Chris Chaplow,

Thank you for pre-registering XXXXXXX. Your domain matches at least one 
trademark record submitted to the Trademark Clearinghouse.

In the coming days, we'll send you another notice explaining how to acknowledge 
the trademark claim.

If you choose not to respond to the claim check, GoDaddy will send in the 
registration after May 06, 2014, if the domain name is still available.


Questions? Take a look at this FAQ:

 


1.      Why am I getting a claim check notification?
You pre-registered a domain name that is a trademarked name. A claim check is a 
process that protects trademark holders and notifies them of potential domain 
names registered with their mark.
2.      What is a trademark?
A trademark is a recognizable sign, design or expression that identifies 
products or services of a particular source from those of others.
3.      What happens next?
Approximately 48 hours before February 12, 2014, you will be asked to 
acknowledge the claim check in a separate email.

If you choose not to respond to the claim check, GoDaddy will send in the 
registration after May 06, 2014, if the domain name is still available.

If you are not awarded the domain name due to a trademark violation, we will 
issue you a refund, less any application fees.
