Privacy policy

[DRAFT: for review before launch]

Last updated October 6, 2026.

Peak Franchising is Chris Hilgers’s franchise consulting practice. This policy explains what information peakfranchising.com collects, what we do with it, and the choices you have.

What you tell us

When you fill in the contact form, book a call or take the quiz, you give us details such as your name, email address, phone number and anything you choose to write. If you call or email, we have your number or address and whatever you tell us.

Where it goes

The contact form, the booking calendar and the quiz run on GoHighLevel (also called LeadConnector), the system Peak Franchising uses to keep track of conversations with candidates. What you enter is stored there, and GoHighLevel’s own privacy policy covers how it handles that data.

If you decide to talk with a franchise company, we introduce you and share the details that company needs to reach you.

What’s collected automatically

Server logs. Like most websites, the server that hosts this one keeps standard technical logs, such as your IP address, browser type and the pages you asked for.

Call tracking. The site may show a tracking phone number from CallRail, so we can tell which page a call came from. CallRail records the number that called, the time and length of the call, and the page you were on.

The form provider’s tracking. As GoHighLevel currently delivers the contact form, it loads a Meta (Facebook) pixel, which tells Meta that you visited the page and can be used to measure and target advertising. It also uses Cloudflare to filter out bots, which sets a short-lived cookie.

Episode players. Pages about podcast appearances embed players from YouTube (in its privacy-enhanced mode) and Apple Podcasts. Those load from YouTube and Apple, and their own policies apply.

This site doesn’t run Google Analytics or any other analytics of its own.

How we use it

To reply to you, to hold the conversations you ask for, to keep notes on them, and to understand which pages lead people to get in touch. We don’t sell your personal information.

Who sees it

Peak Franchising, the service providers named above that run the forms, calendar and phone tracking, and any franchise company you’ve decided to talk with.

How long we keep it

For as long as it’s useful to the conversation you started. You can ask us to delete it at any time.

Your choices

You can ask to see the information we hold about you, correct it, or have it deleted. You can unsubscribe from any email we send. You can also block or clear cookies in your browser settings.

Children

This site isn’t meant for anyone under 18.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version goes on this page with a new date at the top.
