These Terms and Conditions govern the SMS text messages sent by SecTek, Inc. (“SecTek”) to its employees through SecTek’s internal workforce communication system. By providing your mobile phone number on the SecTek Authorization and Consent form during onboarding, you agree to these Terms and Conditions.
Schedule Buddy (operated by SecTek, Inc.)
Schedule Buddy is SecTek’s internal workforce communication system. It sends operational text messages to active SecTek security officer employees regarding shift coverage. Messages cover:
Schedule Buddy does not send marketing, promotional, or third-party content via SMS.
Typical volume is 2 to 10 messages per month per employee. Volume varies with shift availability and the individual employee’s coverage schedule. Volume is higher during periods of unfilled shifts and lower during periods of full coverage.
Standard message and data rates may apply to all messages sent and received. Message and data rates are determined by the employee’s mobile carrier and mobile plan. SecTek does not charge employees for messages sent through Schedule Buddy.
Schedule Buddy SMS messages are sent only to current SecTek employees who provided written consent to receive electronic communications by signing SecTek’s Authorization and Consent form during onboarding. SMS contact ceases when an employee terminates employment, when the employee opts out, or when the employee revokes consent in writing — whichever is sooner.
To stop receiving Schedule Buddy SMS messages at any time, reply STOP to any message sent from SecTek. Opt-out is honored immediately, and you will receive a confirmation message acknowledging your opt-out. To re-enroll after opting out, reply START. Per the signed Authorization and Consent form, employees may also revoke consent in writing by contacting SecTek HR.
For help with Schedule Buddy SMS messages, reply HELP to any message. You will receive a response with assistance information. For shift-specific questions, contact your assigned supervisor. For employment-related questions, contact SecTek HR.
For support related to Schedule Buddy SMS messages, contact SecTek through the Contact Us page or by replying HELP to any Schedule Buddy message.
SecTek’s handling of personal information, including phone numbers used for SMS, is described in our Privacy Policy. Mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in consent are never shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.
Carriers (including but not limited to AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, and their subsidiaries) are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
SecTek may update these SMS Terms and Conditions from time to time. The “Last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision. Continued participation in the Schedule Buddy SMS program after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
