Version 1.4, 1. October, 2023
1. About enforcing judicial decisions
1.1 According to section 10.1 of Punktum dk’s terms and conditions for the right of use to a .dk domain name, Punktum dk will transfer, suspend, delete or block a .dk domain name if there is a decision of a court or court of arbitration to this effect, if the Danish Complaints Board for Domain Names has issued an order to this effect, or if a competent authority has issued an injunction to this effect. Such decisions must be implemented according to Punktum dk’s instructions.
This procedure provides instructions on how to enforce a judicial decision.
2. If the decision concerns suspension, deletion or blocking of a domain name
2.1 If the judicial decision relates to suspension, deletion or blocking of a domain name, a copy of the decision must be sent to Punktum dk by using the contact form on Punktum dk’s website. It is important that the decision specifically mentions the domain name and that it specifically states the extent to which the domain name should be suspended, deleted, or blocked.
3. If the decision concerns transfer of a domain name
3.1 If the decision requires transfer of a domain name, the party to whom the domain name is to be transferred must send a copy of the decision to Punktum dk. It is important that the decision specifically mentions the domain name and that the natural or legal person to whom transfer has been requested is named as the party with the right of use to the domain name in the future.
3.2 In order to transfer the domain name, Punktum dk requires additional information about the party to whom the domain name is to be transferred. This party must send a completed information form to Punktum dk together with a copy of the decision. The information form is available on Punktum dk’s website.
3.3 Punktum dk initiates transfer of the domain name on receipt of both the copy of the decision and the information form. The party to whom the domain name is to be transferred will receive an email from Punktum dk about the initiated transfer. The transfer will be completed when the future registrant
- has accepted the transfer and entered into an agreement with Punktum dk on the right of use to the domain name; and
- paid the fee for transferring the domain name; and
- has proven his or her identity, either using MitID or by submitting other documentation at Punktum dk’s request.
3.4 Punktum dk must receive the information form, cf. section 3.2, no later than 90 days after the Danish Complaints Board for Domain Names has ruled on transfer of the domain name, or no later than 90 days after Punktum dk has received documentation stating that a court has ruled on transfer of the domain name.
If the information form is not received by Punktum dk in good time, or the party to whom the domain name is to be transferred does not ensure that the transfer can be completed within the time limit specified in Punktum dk’s email, cf. section 3.3, Punktum dk ceases to be obliged to ensure that the original registrant of the domain name at issue does not delete or transfer the domain name to a third party.
This procedure is laid down in accordance with section 14(1) of the Danish Domain Names Act. Punktum dk A/S is obliged to observe good domain name practice in the laying down of this procedure; see section 14(3) of the Danish Domain Names Act.
