Text Message Terms
Last updated: October 2026
These terms explain how Terms Deal Academy ("we", "us") uses text messages (SMS and MMS), and what you agree to when you opt in.
Who sends the messages
Two kinds of texts exist on our platform:
- Texts from us to our members and applicants, such as account and security notices, training reminders, support replies and service updates.
- Texts that Agents send to their own contacts using the SMS Messages tab. The Agent is the sender and is responsible for having consent and following the law. We provide the tool only.
How you opt in
You opt in to texts from us when you enter your mobile number on a sign-up, checkout, onboarding or support form and check the box that says you agree to receive texts from Terms Deal Academy. Consent is not a condition of buying anything. You can use the platform without agreeing to texts.
The consent checkbox reads: "I agree to receive text messages from Terms Deal Academy about my account, training and support. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel and HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase. See Text Message Terms and Privacy Policy."
What we send and how often
- Account and security codes or notices.
- Training reminders and progress notes.
- Support ticket updates.
- Occasional service announcements.
Message frequency varies. Most members receive a few messages a month.
Costs
We do not charge for texts. Your carrier's message and data rates may apply.
How to stop and get help
Reply STOP to any message to cancel. You will get one confirmation, and then no more texts from that number. Reply HELP for help, or contact us at [email protected] or (888) 272-0260. If you opt out and later want to rejoin, reply START or update your preference in Agent Office.
Carriers
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
Privacy
We do not sell or share your mobile number or opt-in data with third parties or affiliates for their marketing. We share it only with service providers that help us deliver messages (for example, our messaging platform), and as required by law. See our Privacy Policy.
Agents who send texts
If you use the SMS Messages tab, you agree to:
- Send marketing texts only to people who gave prior express written consent where the law requires it.
- Scrub numbers against the National Do Not Call Registry and applicable state lists where required.
- Include your name and an opt-out instruction.
- Stop messaging a person immediately when they reply STOP, or ask not to be contacted.
- Respect state quiet hours.
- Keep records of consent.
We may suspend messaging access for violations. These rules follow the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, 47 U.S.C. 227, and the FTC Telemarketing Sales Rule, 16 CFR part 310. Some states add their own requirements.
Changes
We may update these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version.
