SMS Terms
Texts about your request.
Last updated September 28, 2026
The program
The program is called “Open·Civ texts about your request.” The texts come from Open Civic Intelligence Ventures LLC, doing business as Open·Civ, in Saint Paul, MN. Each one says it’s from “Jacob with Open Civ.”
What you’ll get
Texts about the request you made: a reply to your booking or message, a reminder before we meet, and a short follow-up after. That’s about 1 to 3 texts per request.
We never put your number on a marketing list.
How you opted in
You only get texts if you asked for them. The booking form has a box under the phone number that says “Text me about this request.” It starts unchecked, and it only works once you’ve typed a number. Checking it is how you opt in.
Saying yes is not a condition of purchase. You don’t have to agree to texts to book a meeting, to work with us or to buy anything from us.
Rates and how often
Msg & data rates may apply. Message frequency varies, and it’s about 1 to 3 texts per request.
How to stop
Reply STOP to any text to cancel. You’ll get one text confirming you’re unsubscribed, and then no more.
Getting help
Reply HELP to any text, or email Jacob at jacob@open-civ.com or call (651) 378-1161.
Carriers
Carriers aren’t liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
Your number
We don’t share or sell your mobile number or your text consent with anyone for their marketing.
Our privacy page says what we collect when you book, where your answer about texts is kept, and who helps us handle it.
Changes to these terms
If we change these terms, we’ll update this page and the date at the top.
