PourTrak

SMS messaging policy & opt-in flow

Last updated: 2026-04-25

What this page is

This page documents how a PourTrak user opts in to receive SMS reminders from PourTrak, what those messages contain, their frequency, and how to opt out. It exists to provide carriers and toll-free verification reviewers a publicly reachable record of the opt-in flow described inside the (auth-gated) app.

Where the user opts in

After signing into PourTrak, a user navigates to Settings → Notifications and:

  1. Toggles on the “Morning reminder text” option.
  2. Enters a mobile phone number in any common format.
  3. Picks the local hour and minute they want to receive the reminder.
  4. Checks an explicit consent checkbox displaying the exact disclosure quoted below.
  5. Taps “Save.”

The form will not save with the toggle on unless the consent checkbox is also checked. The server stamps a sms_consented_at timestamp on the user’s profile at this moment as proof of consent. Toggling the reminder off removes the user from the daily send list immediately.

What the user sees (visual reproduction)

The following is a pixel-faithful, non-interactive reproduction of the actual opt-in form shown at /settings/notifications inside the signed-in app. It is rendered as static HTML on this public page so reviewers can verify the consent UI without needing an account.

Exact disclosure shown next to the consent checkbox

I agree to receive recurring automated text messages from PourTrak at the number above. Message frequency: about once per day. Message & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELPfor help. Consent isn’t required for any other use of the app.

What messages are sent

A single “morning reminder” SMS sent at the user’s configured local time, containing a friendly greeting, the prior day’s ISO date, and a link to the app’s dashboard so the user can log drinks they didn’t enter the previous day. Example body:

PourTrak: Log yesterday's (2026-05-08) drinks: https://app.pourtrak.com/dashboard
Reply HELP for help, STOP to opt out. Msg & data rates may apply.

Frequency

At most one message per calendar day per user. A backend uniqueness constraint prevents the cron from double-sending if it runs more than once during the user’s configured send window.

Opt-out

Users may opt out at any time by:

  • Replying STOP (or any standard opt-out keyword: STOP, STOPALL, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, QUIT). The carrier-mandated keyword handling is honored by Twilio automatically.
  • Toggling off “Morning reminder text” in Settings → Notifications inside the app.

Replying HELPreturns Twilio’s default help response. Standard message and data rates may apply.

Data handling

Phone numbers are stored encrypted at rest in our database and only used for the morning-reminder SMS. They are not shared with third parties or used for marketing. Consent is not required to use any other feature of PourTrak. Removing a phone number or toggling the reminder off deletes the relationship from the daily send list.
