Effective date: October 19, 2026
Scope and program status
This SMS Privacy Policy applies to Arnold Gauge IT Alerts, an automated, non-marketing business-system monitoring program operated by Arnold Gauge Company, Inc. for its expressly enrolled owner/IT administrator. Alerts concern office PBX, UniFi network, servers, QuickBooks server or backup status, recovery events, and requested tests. Personal-residence alerts, customer marketing, and public enrollment are outside this program.
SMS enrollment and delivery are not yet active. Messaging will begin only after carrier approval, documented consent for this business-alert program, and verification of STOP/HELP handling. The proposed sending number is 855-672-7867.
Information collected and used
We collect the enrolled recipient’s mobile number and name or account association, affirmative consent and opt-out records, message content, delivery status, timestamps, and system-event details needed to provide alerts. We use this information to enroll the administrator, deliver and troubleshoot alerts, maintain security, honor messaging preferences, and document consent. Alert content should be limited to operational status and must not include passwords, authentication codes, customer records, financial details, or other sensitive information.
Disclosure and mobile information
We do not sell mobile numbers or SMS information. We do not share mobile information with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. SMS opt-in data and consent are not shared with third parties or affiliates for their own use. Limited disclosure to messaging providers, mobile carriers, and technical service providers is permitted only as necessary to deliver, operate, secure, and support this program, or as required by law. These SMS-specific restrictions apply even where our general website Privacy Policy describes broader disclosures for other types of information.
Retention and security
We retain SMS information only as reasonably necessary to operate and troubleshoot the program, document consent and opt-outs, resolve disputes, and meet applicable obligations. Limited suppression records may be retained to prevent messages after an opt-out. Access is restricted to authorized personnel and providers. We use reasonable safeguards, but no electronic communication or storage system is completely secure.
Your choices and requests
Enrollment requires affirmative written consent specific to this business-alert program. Reply STOP to cancel messages, or HELP for assistance. Consent is not a condition of purchasing goods or services. To request access, correction, or deletion of SMS information, contact mike@arnoldgauge.com or 800-942-4243. Requests are subject to identity verification and records needed to honor opt-outs or meet applicable obligations.
