5. SMS Program Terms

Consent to Receive Messages

To receive SMS reminders, a recipient must complete SportsFam's web opt-in form. The form requires phone verification (last 4 digits), an unchecked consent checkbox, and explicit submit action. No recurring reminder messages are sent unless this consent is confirmed. Users may opt out at any time by replying STOP.

Opt-In Flow

The following illustrates the web-form opt-in process. When a parent adds a family member, SportsFam provides a secure opt-in link for the parent to share. The recipient opens the link, verifies identity, reviews disclosures, and explicitly consents on the web form.

By submitting the web opt-in form, the recipient consents to receive up to 3 SMS messages per week from SportsFam. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to unsubscribe at any time. Reply HELP for support.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

6. Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information, including:

• Encryption of data in transit and at rest
• Secure cloud infrastructure (Microsoft Azure)
• Access controls and authentication
• Regular security assessments
