The suffix “foundation” should be disregarded because “foundation” is a category of products the Complainant produces and sells under both the REVLON and REVLON PHOTOREADY Marks. In the case of LEGO Juris A/S v. Private, Registration / Dohe Dot,
WIPO Case No. D2009-0753, the panel found that the addition of a term that is generic or descriptive of the complainant’s products is likely to produce more confusion since it creates an obvious association with the complainant. ...The term “foundation” is a descriptive term that can be used to describe a make-up product produced by the Complainant. As noted in LEGO Juris A/S v. Private, Registration / Dohe Dot,

In the case at hand, the Panel finds that adding the generic words “my” and “world” to the ALPITOUR trademarks and “my” to the ALPITOURWORLD trade mark does not render the Domain Name less confusingly similar to both the ALPITOUR and ALPITOURWORLD trademarks (see, e.g., Lego Juris A/S v.

Previous panels have consistently found that the mere registration of a domain name that is identical or confusingly similar to a famous trademark can create a presumption of bad faith registration.

The Respondent alleges it adopted the name “legoraai” for the Disputed Domain Name based on its Latin
meaning, deriving from “lego” meaning “to read”, and “ora” meaning “edge”, and that this “aligns with a news
site focused on cutting-edge AI developments”. The Panel observes various discrepancies, such as that: (i)
the first definition for “ora” is “pray”, as per the evidence provided by the Respondent; and that (ii) the
association of the words “lego” and “ora” would result in “legoora” and not “legoraai”. The Respondent also
refers to “Legora AI News” (which corresponding domain name is not registered) a number of times in the
Response, but this is not the same as the Disputed Domain Name, and if the domain name included the
word “news” that would lend credibility to the Respondent’s contentions.

The authority is legion under the Policy that a finding of confusing similarity is warranted where the disputed domain name embodies the complainant’s mark in its entirety despite the addition of descriptive terms, and even more so where as here, the Complainant’s mark is widely known.

Panels have previously held that rights or legitimate interests cannot be created where the user
of the domain name at issue would not choose such names unless he was seeking to create an impression
of association with the complainant (see LEGO Juris A/S v. DomainPark Ltd, David Smith, Above.com
Domain Privacy, Transure Enterprise Ltd, Host master, WIPO Case No. ...Panels have previously held that a finding of bad faith can be established where a complainant’s trademark
is shown to be well-known or in wide use at the time of registration of the disputed domain name (see LEGO
Juris A/S v. store24hour, WIPO Case No. D2013-0091). The Respondent is likely to have been fully aware
of the Complainant, the Complainant’s Trademark and the Complainant’s Website when it registered the
Disputed Domain Name, given the online gambling-related content on the Respondent’s Website, the fact
that the registration of the Complainant’s Trademark predates that of the Disputed Domain Name, as well as
the Respondent’s unauthorised use of the Complainant’s Trademark in the Respondent’s Website.

Complainant also refers to previous UDRP decisions that had already recognized the definite knowledge of
the Complainant’s trademarks and activities at the time of the registration of the Disputed Domain Name may
