POTTERYBARN.ORG domain name under dispute

[awt22]

There a problem thats just arose.


I have been given a notice that icann procedding are being taken against me for the use of this domain <potterybarn.org>, which it is claimed by a third party to be breaking icann rules against such matters. I have read the rules about trademarks and other issuess and i can not understand what i have done wrong.

Once i became aware of the EU and USA trademark owened by the company, i clearly stated on my website that i have nothing to do with them

There are three rules they must meet in order to have this domain taken (i myself look on it as stealing away from me). all three of these rules clearly do not match my site, apart from my domain being the same as this big company POTTERY BARN, but i have place trademark compliance notice clearly on my site, this should cover me from this shouldn't it



Basicly its a big company from the USA, williams-somona inc, i'm a small little guy and they have twisted various information i have given them and tried to make me look like some sort of scammer or shady character

Infact information they had submited is incorrect, they have made up false information in order to paint me as some shading character lurcking on the interent trying to steal the customers and send them to click threw referals

If this was not such a serious issue boarding on liable my legal adviser told me, this might be laughable, it s not tho
