Your use of our services is also governed by our Privacy Policy. By using Yoga Joint services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described therein.
9. SMS Messaging Program
Description of SMS program and messaging use cases: Yoga Joint Park Ave South operates a two-stream SMS program for customers and prospects who voluntarily opt in. Users will receive the following types of SMS messages: (a) non-marketing messages, including booking confirmations, account notifications, class reminders, schedule changes and event check-in messages; and (b) marketing messages, including offers, studio events, class launches and Yoga Joint news.
How to opt in: Check the optional SMS opt-in box of your choice on any Yoga Joint sign-up form (waitlist, founders rate, first class free, first week free, kickoff RSVP, event check-in or quiz): one box for non-marketing messages, one for marketing messages. Neither box is pre-checked and neither is required to submit the form.
Consent is not bundled into these Terms: Acceptance of these Terms of Service does not constitute consent to receive SMS messages. SMS consent is given separately and only by checking an optional SMS opt-in checkbox on a sign-up form. You may accept these Terms, submit any form and purchase any service without opting in to SMS.
Instructions to opt out (Text STOP): To stop receiving messages, reply STOP to any text message. You will be unsubscribed immediately and will receive a confirmation message.
Support contact information: For assistance, reply HELP to any text message, email parkavesouth@yogajoint.com or call (917) 446-2505. Mailing address: Yoga Joint, 470 Park Avenue South, New York, NY, 10016.
Message frequency: Message frequency varies based on your activity. Typically fewer than 10 messages per month.
Disclosures for message/data rates: Message and data rates may apply. Check with your mobile carrier for details on your messaging plan.
Carrier liability disclaimer: Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Yoga Joint cannot guarantee delivery of every message and is not responsible for message delays or failures caused by your carrier.
Age restriction: You must be 18 years of age or older to use this SMS service.
Links to Privacy Policy: For details about how we handle mobile information and SMS opt-in consent, please review our Privacy Policy. Consent to receive SMS messages is never a condition of purchase. Your mobile information and SMS opt-in consent are never sold, rented or shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes.
