4.4 Our Commitment on SMS Data (Required A2P Disclosure)

No mobile information, opt-in consent data, or SMS communications will be shared with any third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All categories of personal data described in this Privacy Policy exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent — that information will not be shared with any third parties under any circumstances.

5. Information Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell or rent your personal information. We may share information only in the following limited circumstances:

  • Service providers — with trusted third-party vendors who help us deliver our services (payment processors, email/SMS platforms, CRM providers, hosting providers), bound by confidentiality obligations and permitted to use the data only for the services they provide to us.
  • Independent licensed attorneys — for AnswerZ Trust Foundation clients, we share necessary information with the independent licensed attorney handling your family legacy plan, with your consent.
  • Legal obligations — if required by law, court order, subpoena, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of AnswerZ, our clients, or the public.
  • Business transfers — in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, with notice provided to affected users.

As noted above, mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in consent data are never shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

6. Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Our website uses cookies and similar technologies to remember your preferences, analyze traffic, and improve your experience. You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may limit some features of the site.

We may use third-party analytics tools (such as Google Analytics) to understand how visitors use our site. These providers may use their own cookies and tracking technologies subject to their own privacy policies.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only as long as necessary to provide the services you request, comply with our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. When information is no longer needed, we securely delete or anonymize it.

8. Data Security

We use industry-standard technical and organizational safeguards to protect your personal information, including encrypted connections (SSL/TLS), secure payment processing, and access controls. However, no system is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
