What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Healthsource Chiropractic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, your right to use their marks is specifically tied to your compliance with the franchise agreement. This means you can only use the Healthsource Chiropractic marks, logos, information, and materials if you are operating your franchise according to the standards, specifications, and operating procedures they set.
To maintain the right to use Healthsource Chiropractic's intellectual property, you must make timely payments of all fees, including the Initial Franchise Fee, Continuing Franchise Fees, and Advertising Fees. Unauthorized use of the marks, whether during or after the term of the agreement, constitutes a breach of the agreement and an infringement of Healthsource Chiropractic's rights.
Even after submitting a deposit, you are not granted any rights to use Healthsource Chiropractic's marks, logos, information, or materials until a Franchise Agreement is duly executed by both parties. If a Franchise Agreement is not signed or the remaining portion of the Initial Franchise Fee is not paid by the deadline, you will not have the right to operate a Healthsource Chiropractic franchise or use any of their proprietary materials.
