How the enquiry form works
When you select “Request a confidential chat”, the website sends the information you entered directly to the Franchise Centre campaign inbox at enquiries@franchisecentre.org. The website does not open your email application and does not publish your information. The enquiry is recorded in the campaign operations ledger and the submitted message is stored in the campaign inbox under the email provider’s normal operation.
Information included
The enquiry may include your name, contact details, location, company and role, business or leadership background, franchise experience, management-team capability, capital-readiness range, timing and reason for interest. When available, campaign source, medium, campaign and variant identifiers are recorded with your enquiry to show which campaign led you here. These identifiers are retained for this browser session when browser storage is available.
Why it is used
- to respond to your enquiry;
- to assess potential fit for the Vanguard New Zealand opportunity;
- to manage the qualification process and keep an audit trail of the enquiry; and
- if you progress, to arrange a controlled introduction to the authorised Vanguard representative.
Who handles it
The Franchise Centre campaign team receives the enquiry. The campaign delivery and vetting team may review it for the purposes above. Information is not passed to Vanguard or its authorised representative merely because you submit an enquiry; that disclosure occurs only when the campaign team decides the enquiry should progress or where disclosure is required by law.
Access, correction and privacy questions
To request access to or correction of your enquiry information, to withdraw from the process, or to ask a privacy question, email enquiries@franchisecentre.org. The approved legal privacy owner and physical service address must be inserted here before publication.
Retention and security
Enquiry information must be restricted to authorised campaign personnel and retained only for the approved campaign purpose. The final retention period and deletion schedule are awaiting written approval and must be inserted before publication. Email is not a perfectly secure channel; do not send identity documents, bank statements or other sensitive financial evidence through this form or by ordinary email.
