SMS Alerts & Consent

Members add their mobile number and give consent from inside their account. The exact path is:

1. Sign in and open the Member Dossier from the account menu.
2. Open the Mobile · SMS Alerts panel (right column). This panel is available to Field Member and Alliance Core tiers. Free-tier members see a locked panel with an upgrade path and cannot enter a number.
3. Enter a valid US mobile number in the phone field (e.g. (555) 123-4567; US numbers auto-format to +1).
4. Review the consent statement below the field and check the opt-in checkbox. The box is unchecked by default and must be checked before the number can be saved.
5. Tap Save mobile. The number and consent are stored on the member's account; the member begins receiving SMS alerts for breaches detected near their monitoring ZIP grid.

The checkbox is unchecked by default. A member can only save a mobile number while the box is checked. The exact text shown beside the checkbox is:

This capture occurs only inside the authenticated member account. The checkbox is never pre-checked, and no number is stored without it.

Members receive automated SMS life-safety and preparedness alert messages covering breaches detected near their monitoring ZIP grid, including water-grid, power, hurricane, weather, air-quality, hydrology, and communications continuity conditions. We do not send promotional messages to this number.

Message frequency varies. Expect up to several messages per week during active emergencies, and fewer during quiet periods. Message and data rates may apply. The member is responsible for any charges from their wireless carrier.

A member may reply HELP to any message for support, or reach us through the Need Help page on the Off-Grid Alliance website.

A member may reply STOP to any message to cancel alerts at any time. After opting out, they will receive no further SMS alerts from us. A member may also remove their number on the member dossier at any time.

Consent is not a condition of purchase. The member must be the owner of the mobile number or have authorization to enroll it, and represents that they are at least 16 years old. Consent may be revoked at any time.

Information provided is handled under our Privacy Policy. We use the mobile number solely to deliver the alert service the member requested.

This page is the public opt-in documentation for the Off-Grid Alliance SMS alert program. The live opt-in form resides behind a member login in the account dossier; reviewers without an account may use this page to verify the call-to-action, checkbox wording, and message flow.
