SMS Messaging & Consent

SMS consent for emergency alerts

Just Chicken In sends SMS safety alerts only to emergency contacts who have already given permission.

Consent is collected by the app user before they add a phone number as an emergency contact. By adding a phone number, the user attests that the contact has explicitly agreed to receive SMS safety alerts from Just Chicken In.

Message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out. Reply HELP for help. Msg & data rates may apply.

Just Chicken In sends SMS messages only for safety related alerts (missed check ins or manual alerts). We do not send marketing or promotional text messages.

Why you may receive SMS messages

You may receive SMS safety alerts from Just Chicken In if:

• Someone listed you as an emergency contact and you agreed in advance to receive SMS safety alerts
• You receive a missed check in alert
• You receive a manual alert triggered by the user

Messages are sent only in connection with safety notifications.

Consent and opt in

Emergency contacts must provide permission before their phone number is added and before any SMS is sent.

• The app user must obtain the contact’s permission first
• The app requires the user to confirm that permission has been obtained before saving a phone number
• SMS safety alerts are sent only after that confirmation

Spanish support: Safety alerts are sent in English. Contacts may reply STOP at any time to opt out.
