What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Face Foundrie's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, both before and after the expiration or termination of the agreement, Face Foundrie has the right to use the franchisee's name, photograph, or biographical material, including the names, photographs, or biographical materials regarding the franchisee's owners. This information can be used in any publication, circular, or advertisement related to Face Foundrie's business, without compensation to the franchisee.
Additionally, if the franchisee or their affiliates or owners operate an existing facial bar that is being converted to a Face Foundrie Facial Bar, the franchisee must make certain representations. These include confirming that there is no pending or threatened litigation against the existing facial bar, that the bar has been managed in compliance with all applicable laws, and that all information provided to Face Foundrie regarding prior revenues, profits, expenses, and customer numbers is accurate. The franchisee must also confirm that they and their affiliates and owners do not own a competitive business that would violate the non-competition terms of the agreement.
This clause allows Face Foundrie to use the franchisee's and their owners' personal information for marketing and advertising purposes. It also ensures that any existing facial bar being converted into a Face Foundrie location is in good legal and financial standing. Prospective franchisees should be aware of these requirements and ensure they are comfortable with Face Foundrie using their personal information in this way. They should also carefully review the representations they are required to make if they are converting an existing business.
