Summary

Brand: VettedCalls (a SynergyCloud LLC product).

Use case: Customer Care — transactional, conversational SMS in two recipient classes.

Two opt-in paths, both documented below:

Consent is collected per-campaign, per-operator. It is never sold, transferred, or shared with affiliates or third parties for marketing purposes. STOP/HELP keywords are honored on every outbound message.

Path A — Consumer opt-in (DTMF press-1)

This path applies to consumers who place an inbound voice call to a VettedCalls number. The flow:

  1. Consumer dials a VettedCalls number (the subscriber's primary business cell forwards unanswered calls to the VC number via carrier conditional call forwarding).
  2. The AI screener answers and asks the consumer's name and reason for calling.
  3. Before any SMS is sent, the consumer hears the verbatim prompt below.
  4. If the consumer presses 1: VettedCalls writes a consent record (consumer phone in E.164 format, Twilio Call SID, ISO-8601 timestamp, source dtmf_press_1). Only after the consent record is written does the first SMS go out.
  5. If the consumer presses 2, hangs up, or never presses: no SMS is sent. The call may still be bridged to the operator if real, but no text message is generated.

Verbatim DTMF prompt (the script the consumer hears)

"Press 1 to connect with [BUSINESS NAME] and receive informational text messages about your inquiry. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out. Or press 2 to connect without text messages."

[BUSINESS NAME] is dynamically replaced with the subscribing operator's registered business name (e.g. "Smith Plumbing", "Eric Kirby Realty") so the consumer hears the operator they intended to reach.

Path B — Subscriber opt-in (web signup form)

This path applies to the service-business owners (the "subscribers" or "operators") who pay for VettedCalls. They consent to operational SMS to their own business cell at signup.

The checkbox is required (HTML required attribute). Checkout cannot proceed without it being checked. The consent record is stored with: subscriber email, business cell in E.164 format, ISO-8601 timestamp, and submission IP.
