Please do not post any domains on the forum containing the following Olympic trademarks:

"Olympic(s)"
"Olympiad"
"Paralympic(s)"
"Paralympiad"

These are heavily guarded trademarks and registrants may be actively pursued by the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ).

If you try to park a domain at Sedo with these terms you will get the message: 'Inserting this domain violates German trademark law. Because of that, we cannot accept this domain name at the moment.' as they do not accept Olympic domains either.

Take a look here:

http://www.inta.org/info/basics_olympictm.html

If you post any domains containing these words you will be asked to remove them or they will be deleted.

Thanks for your co-operation.
