KPPB LLP, United States.

The Respondent is 郭田田 (guo tian tian), China.

2. The Domain Name and Registrar

The disputed domain name <skylight-calendar.com> is registered with Alibaba Cloud Computing Ltd. d/b/a

HiChina ( (the “Registrar”).

3. Procedural History

The Complaint was filed in English with the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center (the “Center”) on June 28, 2025. On June 30, 2025, the Center transmitted by email to the Registrar a request for registrar verification in connection with the disputed domain name. On July 1, 2025, the Registrar transmitted by email to the Center its verification response disclosing registrant and contact information for the disputed domain name which differed from the named Respondent (Redacted for Privacy) and contact information in the Complaint. The Center sent an email communication to the Complainant on July 3, 2025, providing the registrant and contact information disclosed by the Registrar, and inviting the Complainant to submit an amendment to the Complaint. The Complainant filed an amended Complaint in English on July 4, 2025.

On July 3, 2025, the Center informed the parties in Chinese and English, that the language of the registration
agreement for the disputed domain name is Chinese. On July 4, 2025, the Complainant requested English
to be the language of the proceeding. The Respondent did not submit any comment on the Complainant’s

submission.

The Center verified that the Complaint together with the amended Complaint satisfied the formal
requirements of the Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Policy” or “UDRP”), the Rules for
Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Rules”), and the WIPO Supplemental Rules for
Uniform Domain Name Dispute Resolution Policy (the “Supplemental Rules”).

In accordance with the Rules, paragraphs 2 and 4, the Center formally notified the Respondent in Chinese and English of the Complaint, and the proceedings commenced on July 7, 2025. In accordance with the Rules, paragraph 5, the due date for Response was July 27, 2025. The Respondent did not submit any response. Accordingly, the Center notified the Respondent’s default on July 31, 2025.

The Center appointed Douglas Clark as the sole panelist in this matter on August 8, 2025. The Panel finds that it was properly constituted. The Panel has submitted the Statement of Acceptance and Declaration of Impartiality and Independence, as required by the Center to ensure compliance with the Rules, paragraph 7.

4. Factual Background

The Complainant does business as Skylight, and is the maker of the Skylight calendar. It has acquired common law rights in the SKYLIGHT mark, which it uses in connection with calendars and digital photo frames, including digital photo frames for displaying digital pictures, video clips, music and a calendar.

The Complainant first used the SKYLIGHT mark in commerce at least as early as March 30, 2015. It is the owner of the trademark registration in the United States below.

Trademark	Jurisdiction	Registration Number	Registration Date	Goods (IC Class)
SKYLIGHT	United States	6039920	Apr 28, 2020	9

The Complainant is also the owner of the domain <skylightframe.com>, which it registered on March 2, 2015.

It is used to market and sell SKYLIGHT calendars and photo frames.

The Respondent is based in China. The disputed domain name <skylight-calendar.com> was registered on
December 10, 2024.

The disputed domain name resolved to a website with content and scraped images from the Complainant’s Website, prominently featuring the Complainant’s trademark and purporting to offer identical digital calendars. The website under the disputed domain name also features the Complainant’s phone number and social media handles.

6. Discussion and Findings

Language of the Proceeding

The language of the Registration Agreement for the disputed domain name is Chinese. Pursuant to the Rules, paragraph 11(a), in the absence of an agreement between the parties, or unless specified otherwise in the registration agreement, the language of the administrative proceeding shall be the language of the registration agreement.

The Complaint was filed in English. The Complainant requested that the language of the proceeding be English for several reasons, including the fact that the script of the disputed domain name is in English. Also, the Respondent exclusively used English on the website of the disputed domain name which

demonstrates the Respondent’s extensive familiarity with and ability to understand English.

The Respondent did not make any specific submissions with respect to the language of the proceeding.

In exercising its discretion to use a language other than that of the registration agreement, the Panel has to exercise such discretion judicially in the spirit of fairness and justice to both parties, taking into account all relevant circumstances of the case, including matters such as the parties’ ability to understand and use the proposed language, time and costs (see WIPO Overview of WIPO Panel Views on Selected UDRP Questions, Third Edition (“WIPO Overview 3.0”), section 4.5.1).

Having considered all the matters above, the Panel determines under paragraph 11(a) of the Rules that the language of the proceeding shall be English.

A. Identical or Confusingly Similar

It is well accepted that the first element functions primarily as a standing requirement. The standing
(or threshold) test for confusing similarity involves a reasoned but relatively straightforward comparison

between the Complainant’s trademark and the disputed domain name. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 1.7.

The Complainant has shown rights in respect of a trademark or service mark for the purposes of the Policy.
WIPO Overview 3.0, section 1.2.1.

The entirety of the mark is reproduced within the disputed domain name. Accordingly, the disputed domain name is confusingly similar to the mark for the purposes of the Policy. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 1.7.

The Panel finds the mark is recognizable within the disputed domain name. Although the addition of other terms “-calendar” may bear on assessment of the second and third elements, the Panel finds the addition of such term does not prevent a finding of confusing similarity between the disputed domain name and the mark for the purposes of the Policy. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 1.8.

The Panel notes that the Respondent is based in China and the Complainant does not have a registered trademark in China. However, it is also well-established that the jurisdiction where the Complainant’s trademark is registered is not relevant consideration in respect of the first element. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 1.1.2.

The Panel finds the first element of the Policy has been established.

B. Rights or Legitimate Interests

Paragraph 4(c) of the Policy provides a list of circumstances in which the Respondent may demonstrate rights or legitimate interests in a disputed domain name.

page 4

Although the overall burden of proof in UDRP proceedings is on the complainant, panels have recognized
that proving a respondent lacks rights or legitimate interests in a domain name may result in the difficult task
of “proving a negative”, requiring information that is often primarily within the knowledge or control of the
respondent. As such, where a complainant makes out a prima facie case that the respondent lacks rights or
legitimate interests, the burden of production on this element shifts to the respondent to come forward with
relevant evidence demonstrating rights or legitimate interests in the domain name (although the burden of
proof always remains on the complainant). If the respondent fails to come forward with such relevant
evidence, the complainant is deemed to have satisfied the second element. WIPO Overview 3.0,
section 2.1.

Having reviewed the available record, the Panel finds the Complainant has established a prima facie case that the Respondent lacks rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name. The Respondent has not rebutted the Complainant’s prima facie showing and has not come forward with any relevant evidence demonstrating rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name such as those enumerated in the Policy or otherwise.

First, the Complainant’s registration for the trademark SKYLIGHT in the United States constitute prima facie
evidence of its rights to the trademark. Whereas the Respondent is not in any way affiliated with the
Complainant.

Second, the Respondent is not commonly known by the name “skylight”, which suggests a lack of rights and legitimate interest in the disputed domain name.

Complainant’s registration of its trademark of SKYLIGHT. Prior to the Respondent’s registration, the	Third, the disputed domain name’s registration on December 10, 2024, came significantly after the authorised to use.
Panels have held that the use of a domain name for impersonation can never confer rights or legitimate interests on a respondent. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 2.13.1.
In any event, as the Respondent has failed to come forward with any relevant evidence demonstrating rights or legitimate interests in the disputed domain name such as those enumerated in the Policy or otherwise, the Complainant is deemed to have satisfied the second element. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 2.1.
The Panel finds the second element of the Policy has been established.
C. Registered and Used in Bad Faith
The Panel notes that, for the purposes of paragraph 4(a)(iii) of the Policy, paragraph 4(b) of the Policy establishes circumstances, in particular, but without limitation, that, if found by the Panel to be present, shall be evidence of the registration and use of a domain name in bad faith.
Paragraph 4(b) of the Policy sets out a list of non-exhaustive circumstances that may indicate that a domain name was registered and used in bad faith, but other circumstances may be relevant in assessing whether a respondent’s registration and use of a domain name is in bad faith. WIPO Overview 3.0, section 3.2.1.
As stated above, the Panel notes that the disputed domain name was registered at least four years after the Complainant’s registration of the trademark SKYLIGHT and the Complainant had been selling goods under this trademark well before the registration of the disputed domain name. The Respondent’s registration of the disputed domain name and the contents on the website which the disputed domain directs bearing
resemblance to the Complainant’s trademarks and official website, indicating the Respondent’s knowledge of and familiarity with the Complainant’s brand and business. As such, the Respondent’s use of the trademark with a term related to the Complainant’s business in the disputed domain name cannot be a coincidence.

The Panel finds that the Complainant has established the third element of the Policy.

7. Decision

For the foregoing reasons, in accordance with paragraphs 4(i) of the Policy and 15 of the Rules, the Panel orders that the disputed domain name <skylight-calendar.com> be transferred to the Complainant.
