SMS Messaging Consent & Opt-In Policy

How we collect verifiable consent before sending any text message

This page documents how MotoPin collects opt-in consent from every person before sending them a single SMS message, the types of messages we send, and how anyone can opt out at any time. It exists so our messaging program is fully transparent to our users and to our messaging providers and carriers.

✓ Verified double opt-in — no message is sent without confirmed consent

MotoPin uses SMS double opt-in. When a rider adds an emergency contact, that contact receives one opt-in request explicitly asking them to agree to receive text messages, and nothing else is ever sent unless they reply YES. Our backend hard-blocks every outbound alert to any number whose consent status is not confirmed, and logs an immutable audit record for every opt-in, confirmation, and opt-out. This program sends transactional safety alerts only — never marketing.

About the messaging program

Program name: MotoPin Safety Alerts

Operated by: Oxigenic Inc. (MotoPin)

What MotoPin is: a motorcycle ride-safety app. A rider starts a ride in the app and the people they choose — their emergency contacts — are notified if the ride ends safely, if the rider triggers an SOS, or if a possible crash is detected and the rider is unresponsive.

Message types (transactional safety alerts): ride-status and crash/SOS alerts, plus a one-time confirmation message when someone is added as an emergency contact. We do not send marketing or promotional texts through this program.

Message frequency: recurring, event-based — messages are sent only when a ride event occurs, so volume varies by how often the rider rides.

Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help.

How consent is collected

The people who receive text messages from this program are the rider's emergency contacts. Consent is collected directly from each message recipient, over SMS, before any alert is ever sent — a rider cannot consent on a contact's behalf.

1. Each message recipient agrees by text (double opt-in)

When a rider adds an emergency contact, MotoPin sends that contact one opt-in request that explicitly asks them to agree to receive text messages. We deliver safety alerts only to contacts who reply YES. Until they do, their status stays pending and our system blocks every message. Anyone can reply STOP at any time to opt out immediately and receive no further messages.

Step 1 · Opt-in request
MotoPinText Message
Today 4:12 PM
MotoPin: a rider added you as their emergency contact. Reply YES to agree to receive automated crash/SOS text alerts about them, including their location. You will receive no alerts unless you reply YES. Msg frequency varies. Msg&data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to opt out.

The one and only message sent before consent is confirmed.

Step 2 · Recipient agrees, MotoPin confirms
MotoPinText Message
Today 4:13 PM
YES
MotoPin: you're confirmed and will now receive automated crash/SOS safety alerts for your rider. Msg frequency varies. Msg&data rates may apply. Reply HELP for help, STOP to opt out.

Only after the recipient replies YES does their status become confirmed and alerts are enabled.

2. The rider is informed in the app

When a rider on a plan that includes SMS alerts adds a new emergency contact by phone number, they must actively check an unchecked acknowledgment box in the app. The box is never pre-checked, and checking it is not a condition of using unrelated parts of the app. This acknowledgment informs the rider about the texts their contacts will receive — it does not substitute for the contact's own consent, which is always collected directly from the contact by SMS as shown above. On plans without SMS alerts no text messages are sent at all — neither alerts nor the opt-in request — and the opt-in request is only sent if the rider later moves to a plan that includes SMS alerts. Whether or not a particular in-app path shows this acknowledgment, the contact-side flow never changes: every number that will receive alerts first receives the same opt-in request and is texted safety alerts only after replying YES.

I understand that each emergency contact I add will receive one text message from MotoPin asking them to agree to receive automated crash/SOS text alerts about me, and that alerts are sent only to contacts who reply YES. Message and data rates may apply to my contacts; they can reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help at any time.

What a confirmed contact receives

Once — and only once — a contact has replied YES, they may receive event-based safety alerts like these during a ride:

MotoPinText Message
Possible crash detected
Jordan may have crashed and isn't responding. Last known location: https://maps.google.com/?q=… — MotoPin
SOS triggered by the rider
🚨 Jordan pressed SOS on their ride. Last location: https://maps.google.com/?q=… — MotoPin
Ride ended without check-in
⚠️ Jordan's ride ended without them checking in. Last known location: https://maps.google.com/?q=… — MotoPin
All-clear / false alarm
✅ Earlier alert was a false alarm — Jordan is okay. — MotoPin

Sample alert messages. Every one carries the MotoPin identity; recipients can reply STOP at any time.

Opting out and getting help

Recipients can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any message; we will send no further texts to that number. Reply START to opt back in. Reply HELP for help, or contact us at support@oxigenic.com. Opt-out requests are honored immediately and recorded in our consent audit log.

Privacy

No mobile information is shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Phone numbers collected for this messaging program are used solely to deliver the safety alerts described above and are not sold or shared, except with the service providers (such as our SMS carrier) that are strictly necessary to deliver these messages.
