Domain name FAQs
Can I trademark a domain name?
Registering your domain name as a trademark offers better protection, ensuring:
● you have legal rights over the name in the jurisdiction in which the trademark is registered;
● similar domain names cannot be used by others if this would disadvantage your business or damage its reputation.
If your domain name is trademarked, you will have strong grounds for enforcement of your domain name rights.
Can I claim compensation in domain name disputes?
Whether you can claim compensation depends on the dispute resolution procedure being used. We can advise on your best course of action.
