SMS program terms

The texting, in writing

What a text from this desk is, how often they come, and the two words that control all of it. Short enough to actually read.

01The program

Negotiation Inc is real-estate software. Operators use it to reach property owners about possibly buying their property — a first contact after a call went unanswered, a written copy of an offer already discussed, a follow-up somebody asked for. Conversational, person-to-person messages about one specific property. No blasts, no marketing lists, no “deals in your area”.

03Frequency and rates

Message frequency varies with the conversation — typically one to four messages over a few weeks about one property, and it stops the moment you reply or ask it to. Message and data rates may apply; those are your carrier’s charges, not ours.

04STOP, and it stays stopped

Reply STOP (or STOPALL, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, QUIT) and you get one confirmation — “You will not receive further messages from this number.” — and then silence. The number lands on a suppression list that nothing in the software overrides: not a scheduled follow-up, not a new import, not an operator having a determined afternoon. Plain-English refusals work too: “stop texting me” and “take me off” are read exactly like STOP, because they mean exactly the same thing.

The suppression also silences the dialler for that number. Asking not to be texted should not earn you a phone call.

05HELP

Reply HELP and you get: “Negotiation Inc. Reply STOP to opt out. Msg & data rates may apply.” Or just write the question — a person reads the replies, and replying pauses any scheduled messages while a human sorts it out.

06Carriers

Messages travel over the major U.S. carriers and their regional partners. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. If a message never reaches you, nothing bad happens — the software never treats silence as a yes.

07Your data

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties. The rest of the data story — every company that touches a byte, named — is in the privacy policy, section 7 of which covers this program.
