How we collect SMS consent

Last updated 27 October 2026

This page exists so anyone reviewing our messaging, including a mobile carrier, can see exactly where consent is collected and what it says, without needing an account or a login.

Where consent is collected

Consent is collected on our booking form at augustmarketing.co.uk/book, which is a scheduling form embedded on that page. A person reaches it by choosing to book a strategy call with us.

At the bottom of the form there is an optional mobile number field and, with it, an optional checkbox that is unticked by default. Booking works without either. We only send text messages if a number is entered and the box is ticked. Text message consent is separate from everything else on the form and is never a condition of booking. We never buy, rent or import mobile numbers from any other source.

The wording shown on the form

The optional checkbox next to the mobile number field reads, word for word:

Text me reminders for this call from August Marketing (about 4 texts, no marketing). Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Terms · Privacy

If the box is ticked, August Marketing sends about 4 texts about that booked call only: a confirmation, a reminder the day before, and reminders three hours and one hour before.

What we send

Four messages per booked call at most: a confirmation within minutes of booking, a reminder the day before, a reminder three hours before, and a reminder one hour before carrying the joining link. If the call is rescheduled the remaining messages move with it. If it is cancelled, they stop.

We do not send promotional, marketing or sales text messages to numbers collected this way, and we do not add these numbers to any other list.

Opting out

Replying STOP to any message stops all further messages immediately and permanently. Replying HELP returns our contact details. You can also email seb@augustmarketing.co.uk and we will remove the number. Opting out of text messages does not cancel your call.

What happens to the number

No mobile information is sold, rented or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent is not shared with any third party, other than the messaging provider that delivers the message on our behalf. Our full privacy policy and terms and conditions set out the rest.
