RDNH Case D2018-2385

The WIPO case D2018-2385 involved a domain name dispute between Dialoga Servicios Interactivos, S.A., a Spanish telecommunications company, and Finlead AG, a Swiss company specializing in domain name investments, over the domain name “dialoga.com”. The case was filed on December 3, 2018, with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center. Dialoga Servicios Interactivos argued that the domain name was confusingly similar to their trademark and that Finlead AG had no legitimate interest in it. They also claimed that it was registered and used in bad faith.

Finlead AG countered that “dialoga” is a generic term used by many companies in various industries and not exclusively associated with the complainant. They also highlighted their business of investing in generic domain names and claimed no bad faith in the acquisition or use of “dialoga.com.”

The case focused on the evaluation of the complainant’s trademark rights against the respondent’s claim of the domain name being a generic term. The decision considered the legitimacy of the domain name’s usage and the assessment of bad faith in its registration and use.
