party</h3> <p>When registering and administering domain names, Switch is fundamentally not obliged to check whether the holder is entitled to the domain name. Instead, it is up to the holder to make sure, prior to registration, that he/she is not violating any distinctive sign rights of third parties. You can find more information on the page <a href="/terms/#collapse-aaec843e-cb2a-11e5-bd54-525400a7a801-4">Rights of third parties</a>.</p> <p>In the event of disputes concerning a domain name, Switch is a party to neither the civil action nor the dispute resolution proceedings. This also applies when it is solely a matter of ensuring that judgements or rulings are enforced.</p> <h3>Means of recourse for the third party</h3> <p>If a third party raises a claim against the domain name holder, then this is a matter for the former and the latter which is to be settled through civil action or through these <a href="/terms/disputes/proceedings/">dispute resolution proceedings</a>. They are designed as simple, rapid and inexpensive proceedings.</p></div></div> </div> </div> <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-4 swi-subsite-sidebar"> <div class="swi-tree hidden-xs"> <ul> <li><a href="/terms/">Legal Info</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/agb/">General Terms and Conditions</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/aup/">Acceptable Use Policy</a></li> <li class="active"><a href="/terms/disputes/">Dispute Resolution</a> <ul> <li><a href="/terms/disputes/proceedings/">Proceedings</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/disputes/rules/">Dispute Resolution Rules</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/disputes/rules_of_procedure/">Rules of Procedure</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/disputes/provider/">Service Provider</a></li> <li><a href="/terms/disputes/decisions/">Decisions and Statistics</a></li> </ul> </li> </ul> </div> <div id="context" ></div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="swi-footer-bottom swi-footer-bottom-subsite hidden-print"> <div class="container clearfix"> <div class="swi-footer-breadcrumb pull-left"> <ol class="breadcrumb"> <li><a href="/about/disclaimer/">Legal notice</a></li> <li><a href="/about/imprint/">Imprint</a></li> </ol> </div> <div class="swi-footer-copyright-subsite pull-right"> © 2025 for content at Switch </div> </div> </footer>  <script type="text/javascript"> var _paq = _paq || []; _paq.push(['trackPageView']); _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']); (function() { var u=(("https:" == document.location.protocol) ?
