2. SMS Messaging Consent

By checking the SMS consent box on our booking form or walk-in form, you agree to receive automated text messages from Afro Magic Braiding Hair. These messages may include:

• Appointment confirmations and reminders
• Service updates and follow-up care instructions
• Promotional offers, discounts, and special deals
• Important business announcements

3. How We Collect Consent

Customers opt-in by visiting our website, https://afromagicbraiding.shop, and entering their phone number into our booking form. Before submitting, they must check a clear box that states:

We also collect verbal consent for follow-up care instructions during in-person appointments at our salon.

4. Message Frequency

Message frequency varies. You may receive up to 4 messages per month, including appointment reminders and occasional promotional offers. Message and data rates may apply depending on your carrier.

4a. SMS Marketing Program

Separately from appointment reminders, clients may choose to join our SMS marketing program by checking the optional promotional-texts box on the booking form, or by replying YES to an invitation text.

• Types of messages: service specials (like our Wednesday Silk Press Special), new product announcements, online-store offers, seasonal promotions, and occasional re-booking offers.
• Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.
• Consent is not a condition of purchase. You can book and receive all salon services without joining the marketing program, and you will still receive normal appointment reminders if you consented to those.
• Opt out anytime: reply STOP to any message. Promotional texts stop immediately and you receive one final confirmation text.
• Need help? Reply HELP to any message, call (313) 484-7307, or email booking@afromagicbraiding.shop.

We record the date, time, phone number, and source of every consent and every opt-out request. We never enroll anyone in promotional texts without their affirmative consent, and we never share your phone number with third parties for their marketing.

5. How to Opt-Out

You can opt out of receiving SMS messages at any time by:

• Replying STOP to any message you receive from us
• Calling us at (313) 484-7307
• Emailing booking@afromagicbraiding.shop with "UNSUBSCRIBE" in the subject line

After opting out, you will receive one final confirmation message and no further texts will be sent.

6. Help

For help or questions about our SMS program, reply HELP to any message, call (313) 484-7307, or email booking@afromagicbraiding.shop.

7. Information We Collect

When you use our booking or walk-in forms, we collect:

• Full name
• Phone number
• Email address (optional)
• Service preferences

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. Your phone number and personal information collected through our SMS consent process will not be shared with any third parties. Your information is used solely to provide our hair braiding services, send appointment communications, and occasional promotional offers.

8. Data Security

We use industry-standard security measures to protect your personal information, including encrypted connections (HTTPS) and secure payment processing through Stripe.
