Use of Phone Numbers for SMS

We collect your phone number only when you voluntarily provide it to us, for example, during transactions, inquiries, or when you request to receive SMS communication rather than e-mail or voice. You can opt in to receive these SMS messages by expressly communicating your phone number to the FTDD employee assigned as your contact. You may do this by contacting them verbally or by email.
Opting out of SMS
If at any time you wish to stop receiving SMS communication from us, you can opt out by contacting your contact at FTDD, emailing info@ftdd.org, or by calling 423-928-0224.
Privacy of Phone Numbers
Once you have opted out, we will not send you any more SMS text messages.
