Opt-Out Option: Employees have the option to opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying “STOP” to any SMS message they receive. Opting out via text will stop all work-related SMS communications.
For Customers and Clients:
When customers book services or inquire about our offerings, they may provide their contact information, such as phone numbers and email addresses.
We request their consent to receive SMS updates through an opt-in process by sending a confirmation email, where they can choose to subscribe to SMS notifications.
