Does a Basecamp Fitness franchisee consent to the release of information to a proposed transferee?

According to the 2025 Basecamp Fitness Franchise Disclosure Document, as a Basecamp Fitness franchisee, you consent to the franchisor releasing information to any proposed transferee. This information pertains to the development business or any Basecamp Fitness studio.

This means that if you decide to sell your franchise, Basecamp Fitness is allowed to share details about your business operations, financial performance, and other relevant information with potential buyers. This is a standard practice in franchising, as it helps the franchisor ensure that the new franchisee is a good fit for the system and has the necessary information to succeed.

As a prospective franchisee, it's important to understand that this clause allows Basecamp Fitness to share potentially sensitive business information with third parties during a transfer process. While this is generally done to facilitate a smooth transition and find a qualified buyer, you should consider the implications for your business's confidentiality and competitive advantage. You may want to discuss with Basecamp Fitness what specific types of information they typically disclose and what measures they take to protect the confidentiality of that information.
