Use Disclaimers, T&C/Privacy Policy and Business Name
The international trade association - CTIA - maintains the interests of the international wireless communications industry, and they strictly require that you include the following message in your initial auto reply to your subscribers: “Msg&Data rates may apply”.
This is an important regulation, and thus MeloText automatically adds this to the auto reply that you formulate so you don’t have to worry about getting in trouble. Again, this message must only be included in the first auto reply when the subscriber initially joins your list, and won’t be seen on every message.
It’s also important to include your business/program name and a link to your Terms & Privacy Policy page on the initial auto-reply after the user subscribes. This won’t be needed on every subsequent message that is sent, only on the initial auto-reply.
Example of an auto-reply that is compliant:
Jim’s Mobile Rewards: Thanks for joining! Show this text for a free drink.
STOP to end. HELP for help. 4 msgs/month. Msg&data rates may apply. T&C/Privacy @ https://melotext.com
