Twirling Princess provides centralized staff scheduling, substitution, and operational communications for its instructor and staff network and is the registrant for this SMS program. All operational communications — class assignments, substitution requests, schedule updates, studio closures, and administrative reminders — are conducted through email and Slack, which are the channels of record for the business.
This SMS program is a supplemental, optional convenience for instructors and staff who personally prefer to also receive these notifications by text message. SMS duplicates information that staff are already receiving via email and Slack. No operational information is delivered exclusively by SMS, and no staff member is required to enroll in SMS in order to perform their job, receive their schedule, or be informed of any work-related matter.
We collect staff contact information such as name, mobile phone number, role, and scheduling information as needed to administer staff communications.
We use this information solely to send supplemental, work-related SMS messages — mirroring operational notices already delivered via email and Slack — to staff and instructors who have opted in to receive text messages as a personal convenience.
Staff opt in to receive supplemental SMS messages by completing the SMS notifications consent form, which collects their name, mobile number, and an affirmative (unchecked-by-default) checkbox indicating they agree to receive supplemental work-related text messages. The consent form is publicly viewable at twirlingprincess.com/sms-consent.html.
SMS enrollment is entirely optional and is not a condition of employment, hiring, continued employment, scheduling priority, pay, or access to any service provided by Twirling Princess. All operational communications are delivered through email and Slack, which are the channels of record. Staff who decline SMS enrollment receive all the same operational information — including schedules, substitution requests, studio closures, and administrative reminders — through email and Slack exactly as opted-in staff do. SMS is offered solely as a personal convenience for staff who additionally prefer text messages.
Consent may be revoked at any time by replying STOP to any message. Revoking SMS consent does not affect a staff member's employment, pay, scheduling, or continued receipt of operational notices via email and Slack.
Message frequency varies based on scheduling and operational needs.
Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier plan.
Reply STOP at any time to unsubscribe from SMS messages. Reply HELP for assistance.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All the above categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties. We do not sell, rent, or lease opt-in lists. This SMS program is not used for marketing; any future customer-marketing SMS programs will be registered separately with their own opt-in. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as messaging providers, is permitted only as necessary to provide the service.
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information.
