SMS Opt-In Consent Disclosure

Pen Point Project Co. collects SMS consent with an unchecked checkbox on a standard web form. Consent is not collected in a chat widget, a pop-up, a modal, or any overlay.

The consent checkbox reads, word for word:

Yes, text me reminders about my sessions from Pen Point Project Co.

A parent or legal guardian enrolling a student under 18 sees this instead:

Yes, text me reminders about my child’s sessions from Pen Point Project Co.

A decline option is shown directly alongside it, reading:

No, do not text me.

Neither box is pre-checked. The form can be submitted without choosing either, which is recorded as no consent. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of enrollment, of purchase, or of any service.

Where the checkbox appears

Consent is collected on the enrollment form at https://thepenpointproject.org/signup, on the second step of that form, directly beneath the mobile number field.

To reach it on the live form:

  1. Open https://thepenpointproject.org/signup
  2. Enter a date of birth of 18 years or older, then press Get started
  3. Complete step 1 and press Continue
  4. On step 2, the consent checkbox is immediately below the Phone number field

Existing account holders who enrolled before this step existed are asked the same question inside their account, with the same wording and the same decline option.
