Privacy Policy

Universal Franchising is not an agent, employee, representative, or other functionary of the seller of the respective franchises introduced to you.

Universal Franchising is an Independent Contractor, engaged in the activity of introducing prospective business buyers to sellers of franchises.

Universal Franchising is paid a finder's fee or commission by the seller if you elect to purchase a business from a company that was introduced to you by us.

Universal Franchising has not checked the accuracy of the written or web site information provided by the seller, and assumes no responsibility for the acts, errors, or ommissions of the seller, or the outcome of any transaction.

Universal Franchising is not qualified to advise in any part of the purchase of a franchise.  You are urged to seek professional advice from a lawyer, accountant, or other qualified resource.

Many Franchisors disclose various earnings claims in their disclosure documents.  Universal Franchising does not enter into discussions of earnings claims.  Any earning claims information shall come directly from the franchise representatives.

Buying a franchise is a complicated investment.  Take your time to decide, and personally visit the headquarters of the company you elect to buy from.  Make good, common sense decisions in all investment matters.

The Federal Trade Commission regulates the sale of franchises.  The FTC has a very user friendly web site, www.FTC.gov.  We suggest you use it.

Your state may also have laws regarding franchises.  Ask your state consumer affairs agencies about them.

The Better Business Bureau is another excellent information source for potential franchise buyers.  www.BBB.com will put you in instant touch with both local and national offices.

You alone are responsible for researching the franchise you purchase.
