Text Message Terms

Hollywood Disruption, Inc. ("Hollywood Disruption," "we," "our," or "us") operates a text message (SMS) program that sends production-related notifications to people who have expressly asked to receive them.

These Text Message Terms apply in addition to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. By providing your mobile number and consenting as described below, you agree to these terms.

We do not add anyone to this program because a producer, employer, or colleague gave us a number. Verbal permission is not sufficient. Consent must be given by the mobile subscriber, on this website, and we verify it in two independent steps:

1. We verify your email. A production adds you as a contact using an email address you provided to them. We email you a one-time signup code. Entering that code on hollywooddisruption.com proves the address reaches you.
2. You provide your own mobile number and consent. You type in your own mobile number and check a box agreeing to receive text messages from Hollywood Disruption on behalf of the named production. The box is never pre-checked.
3. We verify the mobile number. We text a one-time verification code to that number. Entering the code on hollywooddisruption.com proves you control the handset.

Only after all three steps are complete will we send you production text messages. Consenting to text messages is not a condition of creating an account, being hired, being added to a production, or purchasing anything. You may decline and still use our services.

We send two kinds of text messages, and nothing else:

• Account verification codes — one-time passcodes used to confirm you control a mobile number.
• Production notifications — call sheets, call times, location and schedule changes, and similar operational messages relating to a production you are working on.

We do not send marketing or promotional text messages, and we do not send text messages on behalf of anyone other than the productions you have specifically consented to hear from.

Message frequency varies. Verification messages are sent only when you request one. Production notifications depend on the production's activity — during an active shoot this may be several messages per week, and between productions it may be none at all.

Message and data rates may apply. Your mobile carrier's standard messaging and data charges apply to messages you send and receive. Check your plan if you are unsure.

Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. We cannot guarantee that any message will be delivered, or delivered on time. Do not rely on text messages as the sole channel for time-critical or safety-critical information.

This program supports mobile numbers in the United States — including Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands — and Canada. We do not send text messages to other countries or to other U.S. territories.

You may withdraw your consent at any time, at no cost, by replying STOP to any message you receive from us. We also honor END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, QUIT, and STOPALL.

You will receive one final message confirming that you have been unsubscribed, and then no further text messages. Withdrawing consent does not delete your account, remove you from a production, or stop email you have separately agreed to receive.

To start again after opting out, reply START or UNSTOP, or complete the opt-in process again on hollywooddisruption.com.

Reply HELP to any message from us and you will receive a reply identifying the program and how to reach us.

You can also contact us directly at any time:

No mobile information will be shared with or sold to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent records are not shared with any third party except the messaging service providers we use to transmit the messages, and they are prohibited from using that information for any other purpose.

We keep a record of your consent — the date and time, the mobile number, the wording you agreed to, and the verification result — so that we can demonstrate it was given. See our Privacy Policy for full detail on what we collect and how long we keep it.

You must be at least 18 years old and the subscriber or authorized user of the mobile number you provide. Do not provide a number that is not yours. If you give up a mobile number, please reply STOP first so the next person to hold it does not receive messages intended for you.

We may update these Text Message Terms from time to time. Material changes to the program will be posted here with a revised "Last updated" date. Continuing to receive messages after a change means you accept the updated terms; if you do not, reply STOP.
