    • Program description: messages may include appointment confirmations and reminders, replies to your inquiries, service and account notifications, and — where you opted in to marketing — promotional offers.
    • Consent is not a condition of purchase. You are not required to agree to receive text messages in order to buy any product or service from us.
    • Message frequency varies based on your interactions with us.
    • Message and data rates may apply. Your mobile carrier's standard rates apply; carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.

    7. Client Messaging Obligations

    If we build, configure, or manage SMS, email, or voice campaigns on your behalf, you are solely responsible for the contacts you provide and the messages sent under your brand. You represent and warrant that you have obtained valid express written consent from every recipient prior to messaging them, that you maintain records of that consent, and that you will honor all opt-out requests promptly. You agree to comply with the TCPA, CAN-SPAM, applicable state telemarketing laws, CTIA messaging principles, and carrier A2P 10DLC registration requirements. You may not use our services or any system we deliver to send unsolicited, deceptive, or prohibited content (including messages relating to illegal substances, hate speech, or fraudulent offers). You agree to indemnify Thrive Media against any claims, fines, or carrier penalties arising from your messaging practices or the contact data you supply.

    8. Third-Party Tools

    Our services may integrate with third-party platforms such as CRMs, ad networks, messaging carriers and aggregators, and AI model providers. We are not responsible for the availability, policies, or changes made by those third parties, including carrier filtering or suspension of messaging campaigns.

    9. Termination

    Either party may terminate a service agreement according to the terms specified in that agreement. Upon termination, access to any managed accounts or hosted assets may be transitioned as agreed.

    10. Changes to These Terms

    We may update these terms from time to time. The latest version will always be posted on this page with the updated date.
