4. SMS Communications and Consent

Great Blue IQ, LLC may communicate with Users through SMS/text messaging in connection with the Services ("SMS Communications"). By providing a mobile telephone number to Great Blue IQ, whether through execution of a Client Services Agreement, submission through any website form or onboarding process, or through any other interaction with the Services that includes an express opt-in mechanism, the User expressly consents to receive SMS Communications from Great Blue IQ in accordance with applicable law.

4.1 Consent and Authorization

Such consent constitutes prior express consent, and where required by applicable law, prior express written consent, to receive SMS Communications, including messages sent using automated technology. SMS Communications may include, without limitation, account notifications, onboarding communications, service-related updates, administrative messages, and, where permitted by applicable law and consistent with User consent, marketing or promotional communications relating solely to Great Blue IQ's services, programs, or opportunities. Message frequency may vary based on the User's interaction with the Services and account activity.

4.2 User Representations and Warranties

Users represent and warrant that any mobile telephone number provided to Great Blue IQ is accurate, current, and belongs to the User, or that the User has full legal authority to provide such number and to consent to receive SMS Communications at such number. Users acknowledge and agree that they are solely responsible for ensuring that any mobile telephone number provided remains accurate and associated with the User, and that Great Blue IQ has no obligation to verify the identity of any recipient of SMS Communications. Users expressly assume all risks associated with reassigned, recycled, or incorrect telephone numbers and agree that Great Blue IQ shall have no liability for communications sent to any such number.

4.3 Opting Out of SMS Communications

Users may opt out of SMS Communications at any time by replying "STOP" to any message received. Upon receipt of a valid opt-out request, Great Blue IQ will process the request within a commercially reasonable timeframe and will cease sending SMS Communications to that number, except to the extent a limited confirmation message is permitted or required by applicable law. Users may obtain assistance by replying "HELP" or by contacting Great Blue IQ using the contact information provided in this Privacy Policy.

4.4 Message and Data Rates

Users acknowledge that message and data rates may apply in accordance with the User's mobile carrier plan and that Great Blue IQ is not responsible for any charges imposed by mobile carriers or service providers. Consent to receive SMS Communications is not a condition of purchasing or using the Services, unless expressly stated otherwise.

4.5 Recordkeeping and Compliance

Great Blue IQ maintains records of SMS consent and communications, including, without limitation, timestamps of opt-in and opt-out activity, associated account or submission records, message delivery data, and system-generated logs, for purposes of demonstrating compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and carrier requirements.

Great Blue IQ uses information collected in connection with SMS Communications solely for purposes of administering, delivering, documenting, and supporting such communications and managing User communication preferences in connection with the Services.

4.6 No Sale or Sharing of SMS Data

Great Blue IQ does not sell, rent, or share mobile telephone numbers or SMS consent data with third parties or affiliates for their independent marketing or promotional purposes. All categories of personal information described in this Privacy Policy expressly exclude SMS opt-in data and consent records from any form of third-party sharing for purposes unrelated to the provision of SMS Communications.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Great Blue IQ may share mobile telephone numbers and SMS-related data with third-party service providers strictly to the extent necessary to facilitate the delivery and administration of SMS Communications, including messaging platform providers, telecommunications carriers, and vendors engaged in message transmission and delivery. Such sharing is limited to operational purposes and does not include any use of such data for independent marketing or promotional purposes.

4.7 Delivery and Carrier Limitations

Users acknowledge that SMS Communications are transmitted through third-party carriers and messaging platforms and are subject to carrier filtering, network limitations, and delivery constraints. Great Blue IQ does not guarantee delivery, timeliness, or receipt of any SMS Communications and shall not be liable for delayed, undelivered, or misdirected messages.

Users further acknowledge that their consent to receive SMS Communications applies solely to communications originating from Great Blue IQ and does not extend to any third party.

4.8 Prohibition on Sale of SMS Data

For the avoidance of doubt, mobile telephone numbers, SMS consent records, and SMS opt-in data shall never be sold, rented, licensed, or otherwise transferred to any third party for monetary or other valuable consideration.
