SMS Consent Policy

Last updated: June 2025

About Our SMS Messaging

Repair Bay Evolution is a platform used by auto body shops to communicate with their customers about vehicle repairs. SMS text messages are sent to customers only after explicit consent has been obtained.

How We Collect SMS Consent

Before any SMS text message is sent to a customer, the auto body shop must collect explicit consent from the customer. This is done through our application using a dedicated consent step:

  1. When a shop adds a customer to a repair order, the shop employee verbally asks the customer for permission to send them SMS text messages about their vehicle repair.
  2. If the customer agrees, the shop employee clicks the "Confirm SMS Consent" button in the application, which records the customer's consent in our system.

SMS messaging is not enabled for a customer until this consent step is completed. The consent button requires an affirmative action by the shop employee to confirm that verbal consent was obtained.

What Messages You Will Receive

If you consent to receive SMS text messages, you may receive messages related to:

  • Repair order status updates
  • Vehicle repair progress notifications
  • Direct communication from the auto body shop handling your repair

Messages are only sent when there is relevant information about your vehicle repair. No marketing, promotional, or advertising messages are sent.

Message Frequency

Message frequency varies based on your repair order activity. You will only receive messages when there are updates or communications related to your active repair.

Opting Out

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

  • Replying STOP to any message you receive
  • Asking the auto body shop to revoke your SMS consent through the platform

Once opted out, you will not receive further SMS text messages unless you provide consent again.

Opting Back In

To opt back in after opting out, reply START to the number you previously received messages from, or ask the auto body shop to re-confirm your consent through the platform.
