MCV Wines Text Message Terms & Conditions
Effective: 27 August, 2024
These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between MCV Wines (“MCV Wines”, “we”, “us”, “our”) and you, which describes the terms and conditions applicable to your use of our SMS messaging program (the “Platform”). By registering for or using our Platform, you agree to abide by all of the terms and conditions of these Terms between you and us. You agree to use our Platform in accordance with these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy, and any additional rules that may apply to specific functionality of our Platform.
The Platform
MCV Wines operates the Platform that sends opted-in subscribers SMS messages to interact with MCV Wines by text message. Subscribers can also expect to receive periodic conversational, informational and promotional messages from MCV Wines.
You may have the opportunity to receive SMS or "text" messages, pre-recorded voice messages or auto-dialed phone calls from us, our affiliates, subsidiaries, and related entities. Such messaging may be used to authenticate your identity or mobile device, as well as provide you informational updates about services or products you may have requested. In providing your mobile device number or cell phone number to the Platform, you knowingly consent to such communications from the Platform or for the Platform to use your cell phone number or mobile device number in accordance with these Terms. In providing your number and accepting these Terms, you represent that you have the authority to agree to receive text messages at the telephone number that you provide to the Platform, or from which you sent the text message request to us. You further acknowledge that no purchase is required to opt into this service, and you may opt out at any time.
You can cancel the SMS service at any time. Just text "STOP" to the number or short code that sent you the message. After you send the SMS message "STOP" to us, we will send you an SMS message to confirm that you have been unsubscribed. After this, you will no longer receive SMS messages from us. If you want to join again, just sign up as you did the first time and we will start sending SMS messages to you again. If you are experiencing issues with the messaging program you can reply with the keyword HELP for more assistance, or you can get help directly at info@mcvwines.com.
Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
​
As always, message and data rates may apply for any messages sent to you from us and to us from you. Message frequency varies. If you have any questions about your text plan or data plan, it is best to contact your wireless provider.
​
If you have any questions regarding privacy, please read our privacy policy: https://www.mcvwines.com/privacy-policy.
​
Any such communications you receive from us will be administered in accordance with your preferences and these Terms.
In providing your mobile device number or cell phone number to the Platform, sending or receiving text messages via the Platform, you knowingly consent to SMS or "text" messages transmitted or received within the Platform being recorded and stored. You acknowledge that such messages are the data of MCV Wines and will be viewable and processed by MCV Wines and by RedChirp, LLC (“RedChirp”) (the provider of the Platform), and you knowingly consent to the same.
