Ask HN: How could you claim a Facebook URL, if you have the trademark?

2 pointsby karlclementvor 15 Jahren3 comments

Hello there,

If anyone has any additional information about how I would go about requesting a Facebook vanity URL, if we own the trademark for the name. It is very important for our brand to have the original username without any weird alternatives.

Thanks everyone,

The best would be to contact facebook and provide them with more information like trademark proof, website url, etc.

There was a similar case in the past: http://techcrunch.com/2010/01/23/facebook-vanity-url-harman/

Thanks Nader for the quick reply. Does anyone know the specific email address or contact form to use?
