SMS Policy

Consent / Opt-in Requirements

We use this non-marketing type of campaign to send a one-time SMS rental return reminder to Users regarding their rental order expiry date when they have to return the rented item to https://booksrun.com/ with a free return shipping label.

SMS rental return reminders are sent only to those Users who have an active rental order placed on the website.

User opts in for SMS during the rental order checkout by putting a tick that they agree to get a free return reminder by SMS. By confirming the rent order, the User agrees to receive one rental return reminder for every item from BooksRun by SMS (from +1 (570)-399-9769). Each SMS will contain the expiry date and a link to a rental order page. Once the User closes all current rental deals, they will stop getting SMS from BooksRun.

Opt-out

User has the ability to opt out from receiving the rental return reminders by replying STOP to +1 (570)-399-9769 and no longer receive SMS messages from BooksRun.

Help

By sending Help to +1 (570)-399-9769, User will receive an SMS with our Support team contacts.

Pricing disclosure

Our SMS rental return reminders are free. Charges may apply if the User sends us an SMS depending on the service plan used and the fees set by the carrier.
