SMS Consent

1. Who We Are

Buildalytic is a construction operations software platform serving general contractors, subcontractors, and construction management companies across the United States. We operate as an Independent Software Vendor (ISV). We send SMS messages on behalf of our client construction companies to their own employees and field workers.

Every SMS message sent through the Buildalytic platform is strictly operational. The originating business in any SMS interaction is the construction company that employs the recipient. Each client company operates on its own dedicated phone number. Messages from different companies are never co-mingled on the same number.

2. Types of Messages

All messages are operational. We do not send promotional or marketing messages.

• Crew Scheduling: Weekly schedule assignments, shift start times, job site locations, and foreman contact information.
• Dispatch Notifications: Same-day or next-day job dispatch alerts including site address, equipment requirements, and crew lead details.
• Schedule Changes: Notifications of job site changes, weather delays, schedule conflicts, or shift cancellations.
• AI Receptionist Follow-Up: When an inbound caller interacts with a company's AI receptionist and verbally consents to receive a text, a single follow-up SMS is sent with contact information and next steps.
• Account Notifications: Onboarding confirmations, document requests, and operational alerts for company administrators.

3. How We Collect Consent

Consent is always affirmative, informed, and documented before any message is sent. We collect opt-in consent through two methods:

Verbal Consent: Employee Onboarding

When a construction company onboards field workers verbally during a job site briefing, onboarding meeting, or phone call, the following script is used:

Verbal Consent: AI Receptionist

Verbal consent is logged with a timestamp, the administrator's user ID, and the consent method. Records are retained for a minimum of 4 years per CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices.

Text-Based Opt-In Confirmation

When a foreman or administrator adds a worker's phone number to the scheduling system, the worker receives a one-time opt-in confirmation before any further messages are sent:

No further messages are sent until the worker replies YES. Workers who reply STOP or do not reply receive no further messages.

4. Enrollment Confirmation

Upon successful enrollment, recipients receive:

8. Message Frequency

Message frequency varies based on scheduling activity and job site needs. Field workers typically receive 3 to 10 messages per week during active project periods. AI receptionist follow-up messages are single, one-time messages per inbound call where consent was obtained. No recurring promotional messages are ever sent.

9. Message and Data Rates

Standard message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier plan. Buildalytic does not charge recipients for SMS messages. Carrier fees are determined solely by your wireless service provider.

10. No Sharing of Phone Numbers

Phone numbers collected for SMS messaging are never sold, rented, or shared with third parties for marketing purposes. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent, which will not be shared with any third parties. Numbers are used exclusively for delivering the operational notifications described in this policy.

11. Platform Architecture

Buildalytic operates as an Independent Software Vendor (ISV). Each construction company sends messages to its own employees under its own business identity using its own dedicated phone number.

Messages from different construction companies are never co-mingled on a single number. If you receive a message, it originates exclusively from the construction company that has added your phone number to their Buildalytic account.

12. Consent Record Retention

We retain records of all consent interactions for a minimum of 4 years per CTIA Messaging Principles and Best Practices. Records include the enrolled phone number, timestamp, method of consent (verbal or text reply), the administrator who initiated enrollment, the consent language delivered, and a log of any subsequent opt-out events.

13. Privacy

All phone numbers and SMS consent data are handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We implement industry-standard security measures including encryption in transit and at rest. No personal data collected for SMS purposes is used for advertising, sold to data brokers, or shared beyond what is described in this policy.
