What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Caring Transitions' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Caring Transitions makes no guarantees about any website it provides to franchisees. Specifically, Caring Transitions does not represent that any website will be suitable, reliable, or consistently available.
The disclaimer extends to all warranties and conditions related to the website. This includes implied warranties of merchantability (that the website is fit for its intended purpose), fitness for a particular purpose, title (ownership), and non-infringement (that the website does not violate anyone else's rights). It also disclaims warranties that might arise from the course of dealing or customs within the trade.
Caring Transitions also states it will not be liable for any damages that arise from a franchisee's use of a website. This includes direct, indirect, compensatory, punitive, incidental, special, or consequential damages. This broad disclaimer means a franchisee cannot hold Caring Transitions responsible for any losses, such as loss of use, data, or profits, stemming from website issues, delays, or failures. Prospective franchisees should be aware of these disclaimers and consider them carefully, as they assume the risk of website performance and any associated losses.
