4. SMS Messaging and Consent
RDT operates a conversational SMS messaging program for business-related communications.
Individuals may receive SMS messages concerning meeting arrangements, project coordination, business correspondence, requested information, and related professional communications.
Consent is obtained through appropriate methods, such as an optional website opt-in checkbox, documented direct authorization, or other consent methods permitted under applicable regulations.
Providing a phone number alone does not constitute automatic permission to receive unsolicited SMS messages.
Message frequency varies depending on business communication needs.
Message and data rates may apply.
Recipients may reply STOP at any time to unsubscribe from SMS communications or reply HELP for assistance.
We respect all opt-out requests and will not continue sending SMS messages after an effective unsubscribe request unless the recipient subsequently provides renewed consent.
5. SMS Privacy and Non-Sharing of Mobile Information
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All other categories described in this Privacy Policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent; this information will not be shared with any third parties.
RDT does not sell, rent, trade, or transfer SMS subscriber lists, mobile phone numbers, or SMS consent information to advertisers, marketing companies, lead generators, or affiliated entities for promotional purposes.
SMS consent applies specifically to communications from Renewable Development Trust and is not transferable to independent organizations for their marketing activities.
6. Disclosure to Service Providers
RDT may use service providers to support website hosting, business communications, telecommunications, information technology, and administrative operations.
These providers may process information strictly to perform authorized services on our behalf, subject to applicable confidentiality and data protection obligations.
Telecommunications service providers, including Dialpad, may process messaging information as necessary to transmit and manage authorized business communications.
Such operational processing does not authorize independent marketing or promotional use of mobile information or SMS consent records.
We may also disclose information when required by applicable law or valid legal process.
7. Data Security
RDT is committed to protecting personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or misuse.
We use reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards appropriate to the information processed.
Access to confidential business and personal information is limited to individuals and service providers who require it for authorized operational purposes.
Although we take reasonable protective measures, no electronic system can guarantee absolute security.
8. Data Retention
Personal information is retained only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill legitimate business purposes, maintain business records, comply with applicable legal requirements, and resolve disputes.
SMS opt-in and opt-out records may be retained as necessary to document consent, honor unsubscribe requests, and demonstrate regulatory compliance.
When information is no longer necessary, RDT takes reasonable steps to delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it, subject to applicable retention requirements.
9. Website Cookies and Technical Information
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to support website functionality, security, and performance measurement.
Depending on the technologies enabled, information collected may include browser types, device information, and website usage patterns.
Visitors may manage cookies through their browser settings, subject to the functionality required for website operations.
SMS opt-in information is not used for third-party behavioral advertising.
