Consent standard

Verification and ongoing SMS consent are separate

Hāvin does not treat a phone number or a successful verification code as permission for ongoing texting.

A user must first verify control of the mobile number and then separately take an intentional, default-off action to enable Hāvin by Text. Users can later disable the master text setting or individual message categories.

Exact workflow

How a Hāvin user opts in

  1. 1

    Open Hāvin by Text settings

    An eligible signed-in user opens Settings → Hāvin by Text. Hāvin by Text is optional and is not required to keep or use a Hāvin account.

  2. 2

    Request one-time phone verification

    Before requesting a verification code, the user sees the one-time SMS disclosure shown below. The user must intentionally select Send verification code.

  3. 3

    Confirm the verification code

    Hāvin uses Twilio Verify to confirm that the user controls the mobile number. Successful verification alone does not enable recurring Hāvin messages.

  4. 4

    Separately enable recurring Hāvin by Text

    After verification, the recurring-message consent control is displayed off by default. The user must intentionally turn it on after seeing the full consent language.

  5. 5

    Choose message categories

    The user can control service & maintenance messages, Watch alerts, usage check-ins, and—when available on the user’s plan—shared-access activity. The master switch can disable the entire channel.

Hāvin Verified number

Hāvin by Text · Messaging consent

Hāvin by Text Off by default
Consent shown before the user turns the switch on:
I agree to receive recurring transactional and informational SMS messages from Hāvin, provided by Havin LLC, at my verified mobile number. Messages may include service and maintenance reminders, Hāvin Watch alerts, usage check-ins, shared-access activity where available, account-related notices, and replies from Hālo to questions I send by text. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase. See SMS Terms and Privacy Policy.

The user must intentionally change this control from OFF to ON.

What users may receive

Message categories and conversations

Service & maintenance

Maintenance due reminders, service-related notices, and ownership care information tied to assets in the user’s Hāvin account.

Hāvin Watch alerts

Notifications generated by defined Hāvin Watch conditions or other explicit product events related to tracked assets.

Usage check-ins

Occasional requests for mileage, hours, or similar usage information when a defined maintenance workflow needs an updated baseline.

Shared-access activity

When available on the user’s plan, permitted notices about activity involving assets or portfolios the user is authorized to access.

Two-way Hālo conversations

An enabled user may send questions from the verified number and receive replies from Hālo about assets and information the user is authorized to access. Hāvin may ask a short clarification question when a message could refer to more than one asset.

No marketing program.

Hāvin by Text is currently for transactional, informational, account-related, asset-care, and user-initiated support/conversation messages. It is not used for unsolicited marketing, lead generation, or third-party promotional messages.

User control

Opt out, get help, or change preferences

STOP

Stops Hāvin text messaging and records the opt-out. Standard STOP-family carrier keywords are honored.

HELP

Requests help information. Users can also visit the Hāvin Contact page.

END HĀVIN TEXTING

An additional Hāvin-specific command that disables Hāvin texting.

START / UNSTOP

Clears a carrier/app opt-out when supported, but does not silently turn the Hāvin master preference back on. The user must re-enable Hāvin by Text in Settings.

Users may also turn off the Hāvin by Text master switch or individual message categories from Hāvin Settings. Opting out of texts does not cancel the user’s Hāvin account or subscription.

AI & outbound safeguards

Hālo does not independently decide who to text or when

Outbound Hāvin messages originate from defined product logic, such as a service or Watch event, a defined usage-check interval, a permitted shared-access event, or another explicitly designed system rule. Hālo may help compose or answer content after Hāvin determines that communication is allowed, but the AI does not independently select recipients or initiate contact on its own.

Messaging privacy

SMS consent is kept for the Hāvin messaging relationship

Hāvin does not sell, rent, transfer, or share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in data, or text-messaging consent with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. SMS opt-in data and consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates.

Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are excluded from any broader information-sharing permissions in Hāvin’s policies. Operational SMS delivery records are designed to store delivery and idempotency metadata rather than SMS message-body content.

For broader data practices, see the Privacy Policy. For messaging program terms, see the Hāvin SMS Terms.

Availability

SMS is not an emergency channel

Do not rely on Hāvin SMS for emergencies, urgent life-safety communication, or time-critical instructions. Wireless carriers and messaging providers can delay or fail to deliver messages. For account or program questions, use the Hāvin Contact page.
