Trademark Cease and Desist - Hosting/Infrastructure Provider (Arkansas)

ARKANSAS TRADEMARK NOTICE TO HOSTING OR INFRASTRUCTURE PROVIDER

Evidence, Policy-Review, and Response Packet

Use gate. This is a fact-specific notice framework, not a statutory
notice-and-takedown form. Receipt of a notice does not itself adjudicate
infringement, establish provider knowledge or liability, require disclosure
of customer information, or create a universal response deadline.

1. Sender, Provider, and Resource

Confirm the provider's actual technical and contractual role. Do not assume
that a domain record, IP address, reverse lookup, or branded error page proves
who controls content or an account.

2. Rights and Standing Record

Attach, as applicable:

• ☐ current registration record and status history;
• ☐ assignment, merger, license, or authorization chain;
• ☐ specimens and dated use evidence;
• ☐ goods, services, channels, territory, and customer evidence;
• ☐ evidence supporting distinctiveness, recognition, or claimed fame;
• ☐ prior coexistence, consent, settlement, or enforcement documents; and
• ☐ sender authority to act for the owner.

Ownership or authority issue requiring resolution: [________________]

3. Challenged Use and Direct Actor

Do not label conduct infringing, counterfeit, diluting, fraudulent, or willful
unless counsel has matched the facts to current authority and available
evidence.

4. Evidence Capture and Preservation

Potential materials:

• page, listing, advertisement, source, and checkout captures;
• product photographs, packaging, transaction records, and test purchase;
• domain, DNS, certificate, routing, and hosting records;
• account identifiers visible to the sender;
• communications with the direct actor or provider;
• owner records showing use, recognition, complaints, diversion, or harm; and
• a dated comparison of the claimed mark and challenged use.

Do not access an account without authorization, evade controls, misrepresent
identity, alter evidence, or demand data the sender is not entitled to receive.

5. Claim and Defense Analysis Gate

The packet states no rule from another circuit as automatically controlling in
Arkansas and does not treat a provider's continued service after notice as
automatic liability.

6. Provider Policy and Process Review

Use the provider's current trademark or abuse route unless counsel selects a
different method. A copyright form, counter-notice process, or designated-agent
workflow should not be represented as a trademark statute merely because the
provider voluntarily accepts it.

7. Requested Actions

Select only actions supported by the evidence, provider role, policy, and
counsel's current-law review:

• ☐ investigate the identified resource and account under current policy;
• ☐ forward the notice to the account holder or request a response;

• ☐ preserve identified account and activity records through the provider's
  lawful preservation process;

• ☐ restrict, suspend, or disable specified content or service as authorized;

• ☐ prevent a specifically identified repeat use within the same account;
• ☐ provide a ticket number and written disposition;
• ☐ identify information required for a complete complaint;
• ☐ maintain service while the parties use a stated dispute process; or
• ☐ other counsel-approved request: [________________].

Do not demand customer identity, billing data, logs, content, or communications
as though the notice alone compels disclosure. Identify the consent, policy,
legal process, or other authority required for any disclosure request.

Requested response date: [__/__/____]

This is a requested case-management date, not a representation of a statutory
cure, takedown, preservation, or limitations deadline.

8. Provider Notice Draft

Date: [__/__/____]

Via: [provider portal / email / courier / registered agent / other]

To: [PROVIDER AND CONTACT]

From: [OWNER OR AUTHORIZED COUNSEL]

Re: Trademark complaint concerning [RESOURCE / ACCOUNT / DOMAIN]

Dear [Provider Abuse or Legal Team]:

We represent [OWNER] concerning the mark and challenged use identified in
the enclosed rights and evidence schedules. We request review under the current
provider policy identified in Exhibit [____].

Rights and challenged use

• Current registration or use record: [________________]
• Exact resource and provider identifier: [________________]
• Challenged use and goods, services, or activity: [________________]
• Direct actor, if known: [________________]
• Key exhibits: [________________]

Counsel's claim analysis is summarized as follows without asking the provider
to accept an unsupported legal conclusion:

[____________________________________________________________]

Requested response

Please by [DATE]:

• acknowledge this complaint and provide a ticket number;
• review the identified resource under the policy stated above;
• advise whether more information is required; and
• state the action taken or dispute route available.

We also request preservation of the specifically identified records described
in Exhibit [____] through any applicable policy or lawful process. We do not
request disclosure of protected customer information without proper authority.

This notice does not claim that receipt alone adjudicates infringement,
establishes knowledge or liability, or imposes a statutory takedown deadline.
All positions are based on the attached facts and counsel review.

Sincerely,

________________________________
