5. Text (SMS) Message Communication
To comply with U.S. carrier regulations and ensure responsible use of text messaging for business purposes, we participate in The Campaign Registry (TCR) process for A2P (Application-to-Person) messaging.
​
When you opt in to receive SMS communications from us (such as updates, confirmations, or promotional messages), your information is registered with TCR to help verify the legitimacy of our messaging campaigns. This process improves message deliverability, reduces spam, and enhances security for all users.
​
This information is used solely for compliance with telecommunications regulations and is not shared or sold to third parties outside of this specific purpose.
​

You are providing express written consent to receive text messages from us

Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier
-
You can opt out at any time by replying “STOP”
We retain proof of consent and registration for auditing purposes, as required by mobile carrier guidelines.

​
6. Third-Party Tools
We may use trusted third-party services such as:
- Google Analytics for website traffic analysis
- Email service providers (e.g., Mailchimp or ConvertKit) to manage subscriptions and send newsletters
These tools may collect information in accordance with their own privacy policies.
