Is collecting personal information about other users of the Epcon Communities Intranet allowed?

According to the 2025 FDD, Epcon Communities prohibits franchisees from collecting personal information about other users of the Epcon Communities Intranet. This restriction is part of the user conduct guidelines outlined in the agreement.

This means that franchisees and their employees are not allowed to gather or store any personal details of other individuals who use the Intranet. This includes names, addresses, contact information, or any other data that could identify another user. The purpose of this rule is likely to protect the privacy of Intranet users and prevent misuse of personal data.

Failure to comply with this rule could lead to consequences such as termination of access to the Intranet, or potentially further action for violating the franchise agreement. Prospective franchisees should be aware of this restriction and ensure that they and their employees adhere to it when using the Epcon Communities Intranet.
