What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Basecamp Fitness Franchise Disclosure Document, the license granted by ProVision to a Basecamp Fitness customer for ProVision Materials is not transferable. The FDD specifies that the license granted to the customer is a "limited, non-transferable, non-exclusive license".
This means that a Basecamp Fitness franchisee cannot transfer or assign their rights to use the ProVision Materials to another party. This restriction is typical in franchising, as franchisors want to maintain control over who uses their proprietary materials and how they are used. The license is specifically tied to the franchisee operating the Basecamp Fitness studio at the address specified in the agreement.
Upon termination or expiration of the agreement between the Basecamp Fitness franchisee and ProVision, the franchisee must return all ProVision Materials and remove all copies from their computer equipment. This further emphasizes the non-transferable nature of the license and the franchisee's obligation to cease using the materials upon the end of the agreement.
