Terms of Service

These Terms govern your use of Text Them (textthem.app), group texting software owned and operated by Jon Tolley (“we,” “us,” or “our”). By signing in to the Text Them dashboard, you agree to these Terms.

If you receive texts from a program that uses Text Them, that program’s own messaging terms apply to you. You’ll find them on the program’s Join page.

Who Can Use Text Them

Organizer accounts are by invitation only. Keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for activity under your account, and you should tell us right away if you think someone else has used it.

Rules for Sending Messages

When you send messages with Text Them, you agree to:

• Text only people who joined your group themselves by texting its keyword. Do not add or import phone numbers, and do not use purchased or shared lists.
• Send only the kinds of messages your group was told to expect, such as announcements and reminders, and identify your program in your messages.
• Follow the laws that apply to text messaging, including the U.S. Telephone Consumer Protection Act, and wireless carrier rules.
• Not send content that is illegal, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, or deceptive; spam or phishing; or content that carriers prohibit, such as promotions for alcohol, firearms, tobacco, or cannabis.
• Not try to get around access controls, overload the service, or use it for anything other than messaging your own groups.

Opt-Outs and Help

Text Them automatically handles STOP and HELP replies. Anyone who replies STOP stops receiving texts from your program; do not try to reach them again by other means through Text Them.

Your Messages

You are responsible for the messages you send. We may review messages and delivery records to operate Text Them, investigate problems or complaints, or comply with the law or carrier requirements.

Availability

Text Them is provided “as is” and “as available.” Wireless carriers can delay or decline to deliver texts, and scheduled messages may not go out if the service is unavailable. We do not guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted or that every message will be delivered.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Jon Tolley is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or for messages that are delayed, not delivered, or lost, arising from your use of Text Them.

Suspension and Ending Access

We may suspend or remove access to Text Them at any time, including if these Terms are broken or if a carrier or our messaging provider requires it. You can stop using Text Them at any time and ask us to delete your account.

Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains what information we collect and how we use it.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page, and we will update the “Last updated” date above. Continuing to use Text Them after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
