I think it only concerns the domain name. Why shouldn't you use the word
'lego' to your folders?
Btw. my site also has the name 'lego' in it. Allthough I use it for more
than three years no-one screamed about it. And actually I didn't knew about
any fair-play rules. All people who contacted me about my creations didn't
asked if I'm sponsored or something like that.
The only thing I knew is that you're not allowed to use the LEGO logos. Of
course that would create a clear link to the LEGO Group so people should
think your site is really related to the group. The rest of the content are
just models and other stuff. If your site looks professional people can
imagine it's LEGO Group related.
