Policy On Compliance With Telephone Consumer Protection Act 47 U.S.C. § 227 For Sending SMS Text Messages

INTRODUCTION

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), codified at 47 U.S.C. § 227, is a significant federal statute enacted to safeguard consumer privacy against unwanted telemarketing calls, faxes, and SMS (Short Message Service) text messages. This policy outlines Access Point procedures and standards our organization will adhere to in order to ensure compliance with the TCPA when sending SMS text messages to consumers.

OBJECTIVE

The primary objective of this policy is to establish a framework that ensures all SMS text messages sent by our organization are in compliance with TCPA regulations, thereby protecting consumer rights and avoiding legal penalties.

SCOPE

This policy applies to all employees, contractors, and third-party vendors involved in the creation, approval, and dissemination of SMS text messages on behalf of our organization.

DEFINITIONS

TCPA: The Telephone Consumer Protection Act, a federal law that restricts telemarketing calls, auto-dialed calls, prerecorded calls, text messages, and unsolicited faxes.
SMS Text Message: A short message service text message, which can include marketing, informational, or transactional content.
Consent: Prior express written consent from the consumer, which is required for sending marketing SMS text messages.

CONSENT REQUIREMENTS

To comply with TCPA regulations, our organization must obtain prior express written consent from consumers before sending any SMS text messages for marketing purposes. This consent should be:

Explicit: Clearly stating that the consumer agrees to receive marketing messages via SMS.
Written: Documented in written form, which can be electronic or physical.
Voluntary: Given freely by the consumer without any coercion.

Transactional or informational SMS text messages may be sent without prior consent but must comply with applicable regulations.

OPT-OUT MECHANISM

Every SMS text message must include an opt-out mechanism, allowing consumers to easily and promptly unsubscribe from receiving future messages. This can be achieved by including instructions within the message, such as replying with “STOP” to opt-out.

DATA SHARING

No mobile information will be shared with third parties/affiliates for marketing/promotional purposes. All other categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.

DOCUMENTATION AND RECORD KEEPING

Our organization will maintain comprehensive records of consumer consent and opt-out requests. These records will include:

Date and time consent was obtained.
Method used to obtain consent.
Copies of consent forms or applicable logs.
Details or log of opt-out requests and confirmations.

MESSAGE CONTENT AND FREQUENCY

SMS text messages should be concise, relevant, and respectful of consumer privacy. Our organization will:

Limit the frequency of messages to avoid overwhelming consumers.
Ensure messages do not contain inappropriate or misleading content.
Provide accurate information regarding the identity of the sender.

THIRD-PARTY VENDORS

Any third-party vendors involved in sending SMS text messages on behalf of our organization must comply with TCPA regulations. Our organization will conduct due diligence and establish contractual agreements to ensure vendors adhere to these standards.

TRAINING AND AWARENESS

Employees and contractors involved in SMS text messaging activities must receive regular training on TCPA compliance. This training will cover:

Overview of TCPA regulations and requirements.
Procedures for obtaining and documenting consumer consent.
Opt-out mechanisms and record-keeping practices.

MONITORING AND ENFORCEMENT

Our organization will implement monitoring systems to ensure ongoing compliance with this policy. Non-compliance may result in disciplinary action, including termination for employees and contract termination for vendors.

REVIEW AND AMENDMENTS

This policy will be reviewed annually and amended as necessary to reflect changes in TCPA regulations or organizational practices. All amendments will be communicated to relevant stakeholders.

CONCLUSION

Adhering to TCPA regulations is crucial for maintaining consumer trust and avoiding legal penalties. This policy serves as a comprehensive guide to ensure our organization’s SMS text messaging practices are compliant, respectful, and transparent.

Access Point Biometric Data Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Access Point (“Company,” “we,” or “us”) has established the following Biometric Data Privacy Policy (the “Policy”) for [type(s) of data subjects/end users, e.g., “clients,” “client employees,” “internal employees,” “customer users,” etc.] of the Company’s biometric [type of biometric system, e.g., “authentication,” “access control,” etc.] system (the “Biometric System”). This Policy describes how the Company treats [type(s) of biometric data, e.g., facial images, face geometry, fingerprints, etc.], and other data that may be considered “biometric identifiers” or “biometric information” under applicable law (collectively, “Biometric Data”) that is collected, obtained, and/or processed by the Company from [type(s) of data subjects/end users] through its operation of the Biometric System. The Company reserves the right to amend this Policy at any time, without notice.

2. Collection and Processing

Biometric systems are computer-based systems that scan an individual’s face, finger, hand, or other physical feature for purposes of recognition and/or verification. These systems generate unique data points and create a unique mathematical representation, or algorithm, that is used to identify or verify an individual’s identity, such as when an individual uses their face or fingerprint as an authentication measure to gain access to a restricted area or an electronic device. The Company’s Biometric System operates by scanning and analyzing [type(s) of data subjects/end users]s’ Biometric Data to [recognize]/[verify] their identities. Any Biometric Data collected or processed by the Company will be used solely for purposes of [processing purposes, e.g., “identity verification,” “fraud prevention and detection,” “security,” “access control,” etc.], and to comply with our legal obligations under applicable law. In the event we begin collecting or using Biometric Data in connection with the Biometric System for any additional purpose, we will update this policy. Access Point will not sell or trade any Biometric Data that we receive from our clients and client employees.

3. Disclosures

We may disclose Biometric Data with our third-party service providers (e.g., cloud hosting providers) that assist with or otherwise facilitate our operation of the Biometric System, for purposes of [disclosure purposes, e.g., “when you request that we provide you with a product or service,” “to facilitate your use of the Biometric System,” etc.]. We may also disclose Biometric Data: (1) when required to do so by law; (2) when necessary to establish, exercise, or protect our rights; (3) to protect the vital interests of natural persons; (4) to investigate fraud or other criminal acts; or (5) in the context of merger, acquisition, or similar commercial transaction. Any Biometric Data disclosed by us will be solely for these purposes.

4. Retention and Destruction

Any Biometric Data collected, obtained, or otherwise processed by us will be permanently deleted if the Company receives a verifiable deletion request. Such requests may come from an employee, or a client request with a written agreement from the employee to discontinue the use of the biometric technology for any specific employee. Biometric Data may also be deleted due to the termination of a client’s contractual relationship and deletion will be executed in accordance with Access Point’s client services agreement or the Company’s record retention schedule, as applicable, whichever is earlier.

5. Security

We use a commercially reasonable standard of care, consistent with our industry, to store, transmit, and protect from disclosure, use, unauthorize access, or loss of any Biometric Data collected or otherwise obtained through use of the Biometric System. Such storage, transmission, and protection is performed in a manner that is the same as, or more protective than, the manner in which we store, transmit, and protect other forms of confidential and sensitive information, including personal information that can be used to uniquely identify an individual.
