SMS Consent & Messaging Program
Old Josephs Bourbon Co LLC (“Old Josephs”) operates a private, invitation-only membership program. Membership registration is not available to the general public.
This page describes the Old Josephs SMS messaging program and explains how invited members may voluntarily consent to receive text messages from Old Josephs.
SMS Opt-In Process
Old Josephs membership is available by invitation only. Individuals must first receive an invitation from Old Josephs before accessing the private membership enrollment process.
During enrollment, invited members may voluntarily provide a mobile telephone number and choose whether to receive account and transactional SMS messages from Old Josephs.
Old Josephs operates one SMS program for account and transactional messages. Consent is collected through a single checkbox that is unchecked by default and requires affirmative action by the member.
Providing a telephone number does not constitute SMS consent. SMS consent is not required to purchase or maintain an Old Josephs membership.
The SMS consent disclosure presented to members states:
I agree to receive recurring SMS messages from Old Josephs regarding my membership account, payments, orders, shipping, and customer support. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Terms & Conditions | Privacy Policy.
Verification of the Private Opt-In Process
Because Old Josephs is an invitation-only membership program, the membership enrollment and SMS opt-in screens are not publicly accessible.
