Where an individual initiates an SMS conversation with Holdings Oz, we may respond to that conversation as permitted by applicable messaging rules.
Consent to receive SMS communications is voluntary.
Where an SMS consent checkbox appears on our website, the checkbox is intended to be optional and is not pre-selected on behalf of the user.
Providing SMS consent is not intended to be a condition of purchasing a product or service unless SMS communication is reasonably necessary for the particular service requested and permitted by applicable law.
5. SMS Message Frequency
Message frequency varies.
The number of messages you receive will depend on your interaction with Holdings Oz, the nature of your inquiry, and the communications you have requested.
For example, an individual discussing a property, appointment, requested document, or ongoing inquiry may receive additional messages relating to that specific matter.
Holdings Oz does not guarantee a fixed number of messages per day, week, or month.
6. Message and Data Rates
Message and data rates may apply.
Charges associated with SMS or mobile data are determined by your wireless carrier and mobile service plan.
Holdings Oz is not responsible for charges imposed by your telecommunications provider for receiving or sending SMS messages.
7. SMS Opt-Out
You may withdraw your consent and stop receiving SMS messages from Holdings Oz at any time.
To opt out, reply STOP to any SMS message from Holdings Oz.
After receiving a valid STOP request, we will process your opt-out and cease sending SMS messages to that mobile number, except where a limited confirmation or other communication is permitted or required by law.
You may also request removal from SMS communications by contacting us at admin@holdingsoz.com.
Opting out of SMS communications does not necessarily prevent Holdings Oz from communicating with you through other methods when appropriate, such as email or telephone, unless you separately request otherwise.
8. SMS Help and Support
If you require assistance regarding SMS communications, reply HELP to an SMS message from Holdings Oz.
You may also contact us at admin@holdingsoz.com or visit https://holdingsoz.com.
9. SMS Opt-In Data and Mobile Information — No Marketing Sharing
Holdings Oz takes special precautions regarding mobile information and SMS consent.
Mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, and SMS consent data will not be sold, rented, traded, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes.
SMS opt-in consent is specific to Holdings Oz and is not transferred to another organization for that organization to independently market or promote its products or services.
Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are excluded from any disclosure of personal information to third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Holdings Oz does not sell SMS consent records or mobile phone numbers to lead generators, advertisers, data brokers, affiliates, or third parties for marketing purposes.
This SMS-specific restriction applies regardless of other provisions of this Privacy Policy that may permit limited disclosure of other information for legitimate operational purposes.
10. Sharing of Personal Information
Holdings Oz does not sell or rent personal information.
We may use reputable service providers to perform limited business functions on our behalf. These services may include:
- Website hosting
- Website maintenance
- Business communications
- Telecommunications
- SMS message delivery
- Email delivery
- Information technology
- Analytics
- Security
- Data storage
- Professional or administrative services
Such providers may process only the information reasonably necessary to provide their services to Holdings Oz and are expected to handle information in accordance with applicable contractual, privacy, and security requirements.
For clarity, the use of a telecommunications or messaging provider to technically deliver a communication on behalf of Holdings Oz does not authorize that provider to use your mobile phone number or SMS consent for its own independent marketing purposes.
Mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, and SMS consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to:
- Comply with applicable law
- Respond to a lawful governmental request
- Comply with a subpoena, court order, or other legal process
- Protect the rights, safety, or property of Holdings Oz or others
- Detect or prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
- Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims
11. Data Security
Holdings Oz uses reasonable administrative, organizational, and technical safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, misuse, alteration, loss, destruction, or disclosure.
These safeguards may include appropriate access controls, account security practices, system security measures, and limiting access to information to individuals or service providers who reasonably require it for legitimate business purposes.
However, no electronic transmission, telecommunications system, website, or data storage method can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
Accordingly, while Holdings Oz takes reasonable precautions to protect personal information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.
12. Data Retention
Holdings Oz retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes for which it was collected and for legitimate business, administrative, legal, security, and regulatory purposes.
Retention periods may vary depending on:
- The nature of the information
- The purpose for which it was collected
- The duration of a business relationship or inquiry
- Applicable legal requirements
- Recordkeeping requirements
- Dispute-resolution requirements
- Security and fraud-prevention needs
SMS consent and opt-out records may be retained as reasonably necessary to demonstrate compliance with applicable messaging requirements and to ensure that opt-out requests continue to be respected.
13. Your Privacy Choices
Depending on applicable law and the circumstances, you may request that Holdings Oz:
- Provide information regarding personal information we maintain about you
- Correct inaccurate personal information
- Update incomplete personal information
- Delete certain personal information
- Withdraw certain consent previously provided
- Stop certain communications
Requests may be submitted to admin@holdingsoz.com.
We may need to verify your identity before completing certain privacy requests.
