What is the scope of the license granted by Fly To Fit Franchise to the franchisee for business data?

According to Fly To Fit's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, all customer data and other non-public data generated by the franchisee's Fly To Fit business is considered Confidential Information and is exclusively owned by Fly To Fit Franchise. However, Fly To Fit grants the franchisee a license to use this data.

The license granted to the Fly To Fit franchisee is specifically for using the data in connection with operating their Fly To Fit business. This license is granted without charge and is valid only for the term of the Franchise Agreement. This means that while the franchisee operates the Fly To Fit business, they can utilize the customer data to manage and improve their services.

Upon termination of the Franchise Agreement, the franchisee's right to use this data also ends. Because Fly To Fit retains ownership of the data, the franchisee must cease using it and ensure its confidentiality is maintained even after the agreement expires or is terminated. This is a common practice in franchising, allowing the franchisor to maintain control over valuable business data while enabling franchisees to effectively manage their operations during the term of the agreement.
