Definition : UDRP procedure

The UDRP procedure, also known as the Uniform Domain-Name Dispute-Resolution Policy, is a process established by the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN) to resolve disputes over domain names. This procedure allows trademark owners to challenge the registration of a domain name that is identical or confusingly similar to their trademark, and is being used in bad faith. The UDRP procedure involves a neutral panel of experts who review evidence and make a decision on whether the disputed domain name should be transferred to the trademark owner or remain with the current registrant. This process provides a cost-effective and efficient way to resolve domain name disputes without having to go through lengthy and expensive legal proceedings.
