By opting in to receive text messages from us, you agree to the following terms.

1. Consent to Receive Text Messages

By providing your phone number and opting in -- whether through a form submission on the Site, by texting a keyword to one of our numbers, or by otherwise expressly consenting -- you agree to receive text messages from Trail Mark Digital LLC and its service providers. These messages may include:

• Responses to your service inquiries
• Appointment confirmations, reminders, and updates
• Follow-up messages related to your service request
• Service-related notifications and status updates
• Promotional messages about services available through the Site (only if you have separately consented to marketing messages)

Your consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services.

2. Message Frequency

Message frequency varies based on your interactions with the Site and service providers. You may receive multiple messages related to a single service request. Recurring messages may be sent for ongoing service relationships. We aim to limit messages to only those that are relevant and necessary.

4. How to Opt Out

You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by using any of the following methods:

• Reply CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, END, or QUIT: Any of these keywords will also opt you out.
• Contact us directly: Email info@trailmarkdigital.com with your phone number and a request to be removed from SMS communications.

After opting out, you may still receive a single confirmation message acknowledging your opt-out request. If you wish to resume receiving messages, you may opt back in by texting "START" or by submitting a new request through the Site.
