SMS Consent & Opt-In

How we obtain and manage SMS consent

Overview

Explicit Opt-In Required

Private Event Manager only sends SMS messages to users who have explicitly opted in. Phone number entry alone does not constitute consent.

How Consent Is Obtained

During the registration process at privateeventmanager.com/signup/, users may optionally enter a phone number. If a phone number is entered, the following consent checkbox is displayed and must be explicitly checked before the form can be submitted:

"I agree to receive SMS event notifications from Private Event Manager. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out."

Consent is recorded with a timestamp at the time of registration. No SMS messages are sent until this checkbox has been explicitly checked by the user.

Types of SMS Messages Sent

All SMS messages are transactional and directly related to the user's use of the platform:

  • Event invitations — notification that you have been invited to a private event
  • RSVP deadline reminders — reminder that your RSVP deadline is approaching
  • Pre-event reminders — reminder sent 1–6 days before an event you are attending
  • Event cancellation notices — notification that an event has been cancelled
  • Network invitations — notification that a host has invited you to join their private network
  • Application approval — notification that your platform application has been approved

Message Frequency & Rates

Message frequency: Varies based on event activity. Typically 1–5 messages per event.

Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier plan.

How to Opt Out

You may opt out of SMS notifications at any time using any of these methods:

  • Reply STOP to any SMS message you receive
  • Log in to your account and disable SMS notifications in your profile settings

Opting out of SMS does not affect your account status, event access, or any other platform functionality. You may re-enable SMS at any time by replying START or updating your notification settings.
