Text Message (SMS) Alerts: How Actors Opt In

 

Castability LLC ("Castability") sends optional text message alerts to actors who opt in inside the Castability app. This page shows exactly what an actor sees and agrees to when they opt in.

 

PROGRAM

Program name: Castability account alerts

What you'll receive: alerts when your score is ready, when you place in a scene, and when a scene you can enter is closing. No marketing or promotional texts.

Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply.

 

HOW ACTORS OPT IN

Actors opt in only inside the Castability iOS and Android app, in two places:

1. During profile setup, on the "Add your phone number" step.

2. At any time in Settings > Contact info > Phone.

On either screen the actor enters their mobile number and then checks a box labelled "Text me Castability account alerts". The box is unchecked by default and is optional; an actor can save a phone number without checking it, and then receives no texts. The consent statement below appears directly under the checkbox, at the same size as the rest of the screen's text, with links to our Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. When the box is checked, the button reads "Yes, text me".

AFTER OPTING IN

The app shows: "You're in. We'll text you when your score lands. Reply STOP to unsubscribe."

We then send one confirmation text:

Castability: You are now opted in to account alerts (score ready, scene placings, scenes closing). Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help. Reply STOP to unsubscribe.
