How SMS opt-in works

This page documents, for public verification, exactly how a Summit K12 Achieve user consents to receive text messages under Summit K12 Achieve account and document notifications. No account is needed to read it.

Where consent is collected

Only a signed-in staff user can opt in, and only from inside the Summit K12 Achieve application at achieve.summitk12.net, under Settings → Notification Preferences.

The user enters and confirms their own mobile number and ticks a consent checkbox. The checkbox is unchecked by default and is separate from acceptance of the terms of service, so consent to text messages is never bundled with anything else and is never a side-effect of signing up.

The exact language shown to the user

Reproduced from the same source the application renders, not transcribed. Consent text version: sms-consent-v1

Send me SMS notifications about my Summit K12 Achieve account.

Summit K12 Achieve will text you when a document is ready for you to review, when a document has been shared with your account, and when an action you took on your account has completed. Msg frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel or HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of using Summit K12 Achieve.

Shown above as it appears in the product, with the checkbox in its default unchecked state.

What is recorded

When a user opts in, Summit K12 stores the user’s account identifier, the mobile number, the date and time, and the version identifier of the consent text shown at that moment. Only users who have completed this step receive messages.

How consent is withdrawn

Replying STOP to any message cancels immediately, at the carrier level, for every message this program would otherwise send. A user can equally untick the box in Settings → Notification Preferences, which clears the stored number.
