Search Limitations
In China, foreign names are sometimes recorded in court transcripts in Roman alphabetical format to preserve the value of the identity. A secondary source — court reporter translated transcripts — was also used for this search. In this instance, the search was of no avail.
Divorce searches in China are performed through the Marriage Registration Office within the Ministry of Civil Affairs. GlobalScan has found there is no accurate centralised collection method to date, and records cannot be reliably searched without prior notice that a divorce has been registered.
Identity-Match Limitation
GlobalScan does not verify identity linkage unless full identifiers (date of birth, address, national ID, occupation) are available. All name-based matches are supplied strictly as precautionary intelligence and do not confirm involvement in any proceedings.
Information Security Alignment
GlobalScan maintains an information security framework aligned with ISO/IEC 27001 standards, with documented policies for data handling, access management, incident response, and system monitoring.

Adverse Intelligence Reconciliation Protocol (AIRP)
Subject Identifiers
Interpretation
The underlying decision establishes that the subject is not a peripheral or incidental party but the verified registrant and sole respondent responsible for the disputed domain. The panel's findings of bad-faith registration and use, anchored in deliberate exploitation of a globally famous trademark and pay-per-click monetisation, indicate intentional conduct rather than inadvertent or technical infringement. While the remedy is limited to transfer of the domain and does not include financial penalties or damages, the formal determination of bad faith by an international IP authority creates a durable adverse record that is highly relevant for brand-risk, compliance, and counterparty assessment.

AIRP Score

| Financial Risk | 2/10 | No financial sanctions; only a domain transfer was ordered. |
| Litigation Exposure | 8/10 | Adverse findings of bad-faith registration and use; formal UDRP proceeding. |

| Data Integrity | 9/10 | High-quality, authenticated decision with a full procedural record. |
Conclusion
The subject is identified as the respondent in the referenced WIPO case. Registrar verification confirms that they registered the disputed domain. The panel found that they registered and used the domain name in bad faith, intentionally leveraging a globally famous trademark to divert users for commercial gain. The proceeding resulted in an order transferring the domain to the complainant. No financial penalties were imposed, but the reputational impact is significant due to documented trademark misuse and bad-faith conduct. The identity linkage is fully confirmed, and the adverse finding is authoritative and final.
