SMS Terms & Conditions
Effective date: July 14, 2026 · Program operated by Reserve Your Date, a registered fictitious name (d/b/a) of a Florida corporation (“we,” “us,” or “the board”)
1. The messaging program
These terms apply to text messages sent to and from Reserve Your Date. By checking the SMS-consent box on an application, providing your phone number, and verifying it with the one-time code we text you, you give your express written consent to receive recurring automated text messages from Reserve Your Date, sent using an automated system, at the number you provided. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. The messages you may receive are:
- Verification codes — a one-time code to confirm your number when you apply.
- Queue status updates — your position in the waitlist, changes to your position, and estimated wait times. Positions mostly do not change. That is part of the experience.
- Application review notices — outcomes and administrative updates from the review board (population: 1).
- Service announcements — occasional operational notices (e.g., queue pauses, weather- or boat-related delays).
- Replies to your messages — automated responses to supported keywords such as STATUS, WITHDRAW, and SUPPORT, and personal replies from the board.
Message frequency varies; typically a few messages per month, and never more than a handful in any single day. We send non-time-sensitive messages between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. in your local time zone — the queue respects quiet hours even if it respects little else. Consent to receive messages is not a condition of any purchase — or of receiving a date, which remains subject to queue processing times.
2. Opting out
You can cancel the SMS service at any time by texting STOP — or QUIT, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, END, REVOKE, OPT OUT, or any other reasonable way of telling us to stop; we honor plain English. After you opt out, we will send one final message confirming that you have been unsubscribed, and then you will receive no further SMS messages from us. Your spot in the queue will not be affected, which may or may not be a comfort. To rejoin the messaging program, text START and we will resume sending messages.
3. Getting help
If you are experiencing issues with the messaging program, reply HELP for assistance, or contact us directly at info@reserveyourdate.com. (Replying SUPPORT also works, though the automated response is emotionally limited.)
4. Carriers
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages. Delivery is subject to your carrier’s network availability and coverage.
5. Message & data rates
Message and data rates may apply to any messages sent to you from us and to us from you, per your carrier plan. Message frequency varies. If you have questions about your text or data plan, contact your wireless provider.
6. Eligibility
The messaging program is available for US phone numbers only. You must be the account holder of, or have the account holder’s permission for, the number you provide.
7. Privacy
For how we collect, use, and protect your phone number and application information, please read our Privacy Policy. Your mobile opt-in data is never sold or shared with third parties for their marketing purposes. The messaging program is also governed by our Terms of Service.
8. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. Material changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. Continued participation in the messaging program after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
