How we collect, use, share, and protect your information — and your choices, including consent for calls and text messages.
Effective date: June 23, 2026 | Last updated: June 23, 2026
FranConsult Group ("FranConsult Group," "we," "us," or "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect through franconsultgroup.com and our related forms, landing pages, calls, and communications (collectively, the "Services"), how we use and share it, and the choices you have. By using the Services or providing your information, you agree to this Policy.
When you submit a form, take an assessment or quiz, request our free report, or contact us, we may collect your name, email address, phone number, location, and details about your goals, budget, timeline, and interest in franchise ownership.
When you visit our site, we and our providers may automatically collect your IP address, device and browser type, pages viewed, referring source, and similar usage data through cookies and similar technologies (see Section 6).
We may receive information about you from advertising platforms (such as Meta), analytics providers, and lead or enrichment services, and combine it with information we hold.
We do not sell your personal information for money. We share information in the following ways:
By providing your telephone number to us, you agree that FranConsult Group, our coordinators, our franchise consultants, and franchise partners may contact you at that number — including by automatic telephone dialing systems, artificial or pre-recorded voice messages, and SMS/text messages — for purposes related to your inquiry, scheduling, and franchise opportunities. Consent to receive marketing calls or texts is not a condition of any purchase or of using our Services.
Message and data rates may apply, and message frequency varies. You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP, and reply HELP for help. You may opt out of marketing calls by telling us during any call or by contacting us using the details below. Even after you opt out of marketing, we may still contact you about an active inquiry or for transactional purposes.
You may opt out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in any message, and opt out of texts or calls as described above. Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete your personal information, or to opt out of certain processing or "sharing" for targeted advertising.
California residents (CCPA/CPRA): you may have the right to know, delete, and correct your personal information, and to opt out of the "sale" or "sharing" of personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. We will not discriminate against you for exercising these rights. To make a request, contact us using the information below.
We use cookies, pixels, and similar technologies — including the Meta Pixel and analytics tools such as Google Analytics — to operate the site, understand usage, and measure and improve our advertising. You can control cookies through your browser settings and opt out of certain interest-based advertising through the platforms' own settings and industry opt-out tools. Where required, we honor recognized opt-out preference signals.
We keep personal information for as long as needed to provide the Services, pursue the purposes described in this Policy, and comply with our legal obligations, after which we delete or de-identify it.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Our Services are intended for adults and are not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
Our Services may link to third-party websites we do not control. This Policy does not apply to those sites, and we encourage you to review their privacy policies.
We may update this Policy from time to time. We will post the updated version here and revise the "Last updated" date above. Material changes may be communicated by additional notice where required.
