SMS Privacy Policy

Phoenix Men’s Arts Council and its affiliates (“We” or “Us”) are offering a mobile messaging program (the “Program”). This SMS Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect personal information in connection with the Program. By opting in to or participating in the Program, you also accept and agree to our SMS Marketing Terms and Conditions. PLEASE READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY, AS THEY CONSTITUTE A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND US.

Overview

This Privacy Policy describes how Men’s Arts Council collects, uses, stores, and protects personal information collected through:

  • SMS / MMS mobile messaging programs (including SlickText)
  • Sweepstakes and fundraising campaigns
  • Online forms and embedded entry / donation experiences

For the full rules of the messaging Program—including opt-in, opt-out, HELP, cost, and frequency—see our SMS Marketing Terms and Conditions.

Information We Collect

Depending on how you interact with Us, we may collect:

  • Mobile phone number
  • SMS opt-in and opt-out timestamps
  • Message interaction data
  • Sweepstakes entry information
  • Donation or campaign-related metadata

We do not sell mobile phone numbers or SMS consent data.

How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to:

  • Send SMS/MMS messages you have opted into
  • Administer sweepstakes and fundraising campaigns
  • Provide updates, reminders, and confirmations
  • Maintain compliance with legal and regulatory requirements

User Opt In

The Program allows users to receive SMS/MMS mobile messages or other marketing and informational communications by opting into the Program, such as through online or application-based enrollment forms or by texting a keyword to one of our phone numbers (such as a traditional 10-digit phone number or a toll-free number) or “short codes” (a 5 or 6-digit number that We use to exchange SMS/MMS with you), to which you may need to respond to confirm your opt-in. Regardless of the opt-in method you used to join the Program, you agree that our SMS Marketing Terms apply to your participation in the Program. By participating in the Program, you agree to receive text messages, including automated text messages, at the phone number associated with your opt-in, and you understand that consent to these terms is not required to make any purchase from Us.

User Opt Out

If you do not wish to continue participating in the Program, reply STOP, UNSUBSCRIBE, REMOVE, CANCEL, END, QUIT, OPT OUT, or ARRET to any mobile message from Us. You may receive one additional mobile message confirming your decision to opt out.

Support Instructions

For support regarding the Program, text HELP in reply to the message you received from Us, or email vicki@mensartscouncil.org. For further opt-out support, contact our SMS platform provider, SlickText, at support@slicktext.com.

Cost and Frequency

Although We do not charge you for our messages, message and data rates may apply from your wireless carrier. The Program involves recurring mobile messages, which may vary in frequency based on, among other factors, your level of interaction with Us.

SMS Privacy Practices

  • SMS consent is used only for Men’s Arts Council communications related to the Program
  • Consent is not shared or sold to unaffiliated third parties for their own marketing
  • You may opt out at any time by replying STOP (or the other keywords listed above)

Service Providers

We may use service providers (including SlickText for SMS delivery and platforms that power sweepstakes entry / donation flows) to operate the Program. Those providers process information only as needed to provide services to Us and are not authorized to sell your SMS consent.

Data Security

We take reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect personal information from unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure.

Your Rights & Choices

You may:

  • Opt out of SMS communications at any time by replying STOP
