Such providers may process information under their own privacy notices and applicable legal requirements.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of the providers with whom you choose to proceed.

The inclusion of a provider name on our website does not necessarily indicate a direct partnership, endorsement, or authorized-dealer relationship.

 

7. SMS Messaging and Mobile Privacy

Pinacle Marketing may use SMS text messaging to communicate with customers and prospective customers who have provided the necessary consent or otherwise initiated communications permitted by law.

7.1 Types of SMS Communications

Customer Support

  • Responses to customer inquiries

  • Requested callbacks

  • Customer assistance

  • Service-related follow-ups

Service Notifications

  • Appointment reminders

  • Order or application status notifications

  • Requested service updates

  • Account-related notifications

Marketing and Promotional Messages

  • Internet service information

  • Available offers and promotions

  • Insurance service information

Marketing text messages are sent only when the appropriate consent has been obtained.

7.2 SMS Opt-In Consent

Customers may opt in to text messaging through supported channels, such as:

  • Website contact forms

  • Service inquiry forms

  • Digital lead forms

  • Event registration forms

  • Other documented consent processes

When marketing SMS consent is requested, the opt-in must be clear, voluntary, and separate from unrelated agreements.

Consent to receive marketing text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services.

Providing a phone number through a general inquiry form does not automatically authorize unrelated promotional text messages.

7.3 SMS Message Frequency

Message frequency may vary.

The number of messages depends on your specific inquiry, requested services, and any messaging programs to which you have subscribed.

7.4 Message and Data Rates

Message and data rates may apply.

Charges are determined by your mobile carrier and wireless service plan.

7.5 SMS Opt-Out

You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by replying STOP to any SMS message sent by Pinacle Marketing.

After opting out, you may receive a final confirmation message.

You will not receive additional messages from the applicable program unless you provide new consent or initiate another communication permitted by law.

7.6 SMS Assistance

For assistance, reply HELP to any SMS message or contact us directly.

Phone: +1 (800) 488-8014

Email: contact@ustxtraders.com

7.7 Mobile Information Sharing and Protection

No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

All other categories of personal information sharing described in this Privacy Policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent. This information will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes.

We do not sell SMS opt-in consent information.

Mobile information may be processed by messaging platforms and service providers acting on our behalf solely as necessary to deliver authorized communications, manage messaging preferences, maintain program operations, or comply with applicable law.

Such processing does not authorize those service providers to use your mobile opt-in information for their own independent marketing campaigns.

Any information you separately authorize us to transmit as part of a specific service request will be handled according to the relevant request, applicable privacy requirements, and the disclosures presented to you.

7.8 SMS Security

We strive to use reasonable administrative and technical safeguards to protect messaging-related information.

However, ordinary SMS communications may not be encrypted end-to-end and should not be used to transmit highly sensitive personal, financial, or medical information.

 

8. Email Communications and Marketing Preferences

We may communicate with you by email to:

  • Respond to inquiries.

  • Provide requested service information.

  • Send appointment or service-related updates.

  • Provide customer support.

  • Share business or promotional information where permitted by law.

Where required, marketing emails will include an unsubscribe method.

You may opt out of marketing emails by following the unsubscribe instructions in the message or contacting us at:

contact@ustxtraders.com

Opting out of promotional communications does not necessarily prevent us from responding to inquiries you initiate or sending other legally permitted service-related communications.

10. Website Hosting and Third-Party Technology

Our website may be developed and hosted using Wix.
