What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to HealthSource Chiropractic's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'HS' mark, specifically the letters and design, has two registration numbers. One registration number is 5625161, registered on December 11, 2018, and the other is 6836038, registered on September 06, 2022. Both are listed on the Principal Register.
HealthSource Chiropractic grants franchisees the right to use several marks, including the 'HS' logo used on vitamins and supplements. However, franchisees' rights to use these marks are derived solely from the Franchise Agreement. This means a franchisee must comply with the agreement, including specifications, standards, and operating procedures, to maintain the right to use the marks. Unauthorized use of the marks constitutes an infringement of HealthSource Chiropractic's rights.
Prospective franchisees should note that they must use the marks as the sole identification of their franchise and identify themselves as the independent owner. They cannot use any mark as part of a corporate or trade name or with any modifying words without express written authorization from HealthSource Chiropractic. Franchisees must also display the marks on posters, displays, contracts, and stationery as prescribed by HealthSource Chiropractic and must notify HealthSource Chiropractic of any potential infringement or claims against the marks.
HealthSource Chiropractic retains exclusive control over any litigation or proceedings related to the marks and will decide on any affirmative action deemed appropriate. Franchisees are required to assist in protecting the marks by signing documents and providing necessary assistance. If HealthSource Chiropractic decides to modify or discontinue the use of any mark, franchisees must comply with these instructions at their own expense, without reimbursement for any loss of revenue.
