Sam Reynolds LLC, doing business as Cafe Namaste (“we,” “us,” or “our”), operates www.gocafenamaste.com and related services, events, programs, email communications, and SMS communications.

INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We may collect several types of information in order to provide and improve our services.

SMS AND TEXT MESSAGE DATA
If you choose to subscribe to Cafe Namaste SMS communications, we may collect your mobile phone number, SMS consent status, signup information, message history, and related information necessary to operate our text messaging program.
SMS consent is collected separately from email consent. Providing your phone number does not automatically enroll you in marketing text messages.
We use SMS information to send communications that you have specifically agreed to receive, which may include event announcements, class reminders, schedule updates, registration information, special offers, and other Cafe Namaste news.
Your consent to receive marketing text messages is voluntary and is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services.
We do not sell your mobile phone number or SMS consent information.
We do not share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt in information, or SMS consent data with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
We may share information with service providers that assist us in operating our SMS program, such as Mailchimp and telecommunications providers, solely as necessary to provide messaging services on our behalf.
SMS OPT OUT
You may opt out of Cafe Namaste SMS communications at any time by replying STOP to a text message.
After opting out, you may receive a confirmation message indicating that you have been unsubscribed. You will no longer receive marketing SMS messages unless you subsequently provide consent again.
You may reply HELP for assistance when supported by the applicable messaging service.
Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
