SMS Opt-In
Busy sends text messages for one purpose today: one-time verification codes (two-factor authentication) for signing in to Busy applications. This page shows exactly how a person opts in, the consent language they see, and how to stop.
How opt-in happens
During account setup or in account settings, a user chooses to enable SMS verification and enters their own mobile number. Nothing is pre-filled and no number is imported from anywhere else. Codes are sent only when that user requests one during a sign-in or verification attempt — there are no scheduled, promotional, or marketing texts on this number.
The enrollment form
This is the form as it appears in the Busy app, on the Safety → Two-Factor Overrides screen. The consent checkbox is unchecked by default and the Enroll button stays disabled until the person checks it themselves:
Your number: +1 (___) ___-____
[ ]By enrolling you agree to receive verification and Two-Factor Override texts from Busy at +1 (503) 974-3249 to your number. Message frequency varies. Msg&data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Privacy policy · Terms and conditions

Stopping, and getting help
Reply STOP to any message to opt out; you will receive one confirmation and nothing further. Reply START to re-enable. Reply HELP, or write to jeff@busyincorporated.com, for help. SMS verification can also be turned off in account settings at any time.
Mobile numbers and opt-in consent are used only to deliver these messages. No mobile information is shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes, and text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are not shared with any third parties, excepting the messaging carriers and Telnyx, our delivery provider, solely as required to deliver the messages.
