05. SMS & Mobile Information Protection

We take mobile privacy and compliance with carrier and CTIA standards seriously. If you provide your mobile phone number on any form or booking calendar on this website, your mobile number and SMS consent are strictly protected.

Strict Separation of Consent

Consent to receive text messages is completely voluntary and is never a condition of purchasing any goods, services, or submitting an inquiry to Shared Summit LLC. If phone number collection forms provide SMS options, we maintain strict separation between:

• Non-Marketing Messages: Transactional communications directly related to your inquiry, appointment reminders, consultation confirmations, or active project notifications.
• Marketing Messages: Occasional promotional service updates, tips, or announcements.

Subscribers may opt into one category, both, or neither. Checkboxes are never pre-selected by default, and selecting a consent checkbox is never required in order to submit an inquiry form or schedule a call.

Opt-Out & Assistance

You may cancel SMS communications at any time. Simply reply STOP to any text message from us. To receive help or assistance regarding text messages, reply HELP or contact us directly at info@sharedsummitco.com.

06. Cookies & Analytics

Our website utilizes minimal, essential first-party cookies and storage mechanisms necessary for the site to function properly:

• Session Attribution (__vibe_sid): A first-party identifier stored in your browser session to attribute your completed form inquiry to the page you were visiting. It is not shared with third-party advertisers.
• Local Browser State: Temporary interface settings such as menu states or interactive review tabs.

We do not use third-party advertising cookies, retargeting pixels (such as Meta Pixel or TikTok Pixel), or data broker scripts.
