Messaging Terms

Last updated 19 August 2026.

These terms cover the Beacon Peak text message program. Signing up means agreeing to them.

The program

Program name: Beacon Peak. Beacon Peak sends announcement and reminder text messages for community and congregational groups in Alpine, Utah: schedule changes, event details, and time-sensitive notices. Messages are one-way. The alert number is not staffed for conversation, and no marketing, promotional, or third-party content is sent through it.

How you join

There are exactly two ways onto a list, and both are your own action:

Each sign-up covers the program you signed up for. Being on one list does not put you on another.

Message frequency

Message frequency varies.

Cost

Message and data rates may apply. Beacon Peak charges nothing; whatever your mobile plan charges for a text is between you and your carrier. Consent to receive messages is not a condition of any purchase.

How to stop

Reply STOP to any message. That stops every list at once, not just the one the message came from. You will receive one confirmation and no further messages. Reply START to rejoin, or email support@beaconpeak.org and we will remove you by hand.

How to get help

Reply HELP to any message for the program name and contact details, or email support@beaconpeak.org.

Who can sign up

You must be 18 or older, and the number must be a US mobile that you use yourself - your own phone, whether or not the account is in your name. Do not enter someone else's number, even with their permission: consent has to come from the person holding the phone, so ask them to sign up themselves.

Carriers and delivery

Messages are delivered over the major US mobile carriers. Delivery is not guaranteed: carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages, and neither is Beacon Peak. Do not rely on a text message as the only warning in an emergency.

Your information

What we collect and how it is handled is set out in the Privacy Policy. Mobile information from opt-in will never be shared or sold to third parties or lead generators.

Changes to these terms

If these terms change, the date at the top changes with them, and the new version is posted here before it takes effect.
