If you choose to provide your phone number, we may use it to send you important service-related communications, such as account notifications or updates relating to your entries.

We will only send you promotional or marketing SMS messages where you have explicitly opted in to receive them. This consent is collected through a clear and separate opt-in mechanism at the point of registration or within your account settings.

You can withdraw your consent to receive marketing SMS at any time. Each marketing message will include clear instructions on how to opt out (for example, by replying STOP), or you can update your preferences in your account or contact us directly.

We do not send unsolicited marketing messages and will not share your phone number with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
