Terms and Conditions

Effective Date: October 01, 2025

Legal Company Name: 0981308 B.C. Ltd.

DBA: Petitext

Welcome to Petitext ("the Service"), operated by 0981308 B.C. Ltd., a corporation registered in British Columbia, Canada ("we", "us", "our").

By using Petitext, you agree to these Terms and Conditions ("Terms"). If you do not agree, you must discontinue using the Service immediately.

Petitext is a virtual phone number rental platform that provides subscribers with a dedicated virtual number which they can publish or share on classified listings, ads, profiles, business cards, signatures, or anywhere else they want people to be able to reach them. Each subscriber is assigned a unique number for a defined rental period (1, 3, or 7 days).

The Service operates on a receive-first model:

• Inbound SMS/MMS sent to your rented number is forwarded to your verified email inbox;
• You may reply to that conversation by email, and your reply is relayed back as SMS from your rented number;
• Outbound SMS is only enabled to recipients who have first sent an inbound SMS to your rented number. You cannot use Petitext to initiate contact with people who have not first texted your rental number.
• Account-related notifications regarding rental status, expiry, and billing are delivered by email.

Each subscriber receives a dedicated virtual number for the exclusive duration of their rental period. After expiry, the number is released back to our upstream carrier (Telnyx) and may be reassigned to a different subscriber in a future rental — numbers are pooled across rental cycles, but are never shared concurrently between active renters. Petitext does not control or edit message content.

To use Petitext, you must:

• Be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction);
• Provide a valid email address for communication;
• Use the Service only for lawful and personal or business-related purposes;
• Agree to comply with applicable telecommunications and privacy laws.

Petitext does not require account creation or password setup.

You provide your email address and payment information during setup. That email becomes the unique identifier for your use of the Service.

Petitext will use that email for:

• Account notifications (rental activation, expiry notices, service updates);
• Billing notices and policy changes.

While email verification is not mandatory, users must provide a valid and accessible email address to use the Service effectively.

Petitext is intended for low-volume, conversational, receive-first SMS communications only. You agree to use the Service in compliance with the following rules:

Permitted Use

Usage limits apply per rental period and vary by plan:

• An "active conversation" is a unique third-party recipient who has texted your rental number during the rental period and to whom you may now reply;
• Outbound SMS is permitted only as a reply to an active conversation — you cannot send the first message of a conversation;
• Messages must be conversational and personal in nature.

Prohibited Use

You agree not to use Petitext for:

• Initiating contact with any recipient who has not first texted your rental number — Petitext is a receive-first service and outbound is reply-only;
• Attempting to circumvent the receive-first restriction through any technical or social means;
• Spam, bulk marketing, broadcast, or unsolicited mass messaging;
• Fraud, impersonation, phishing, harassment, or abusive behavior;
• SHAFT content: Sex (adult content), Hate speech, Alcohol (to minors), Firearms (unlicensed), Tobacco/Cannabis;
• Automated or bot-generated messages;
• Unlicensed lending, financing, or debt collection;
• Illegal, defamatory, or obscene communications;
• Any activity violating applicable local or international law, including telecom and data protection regulations.

Petitext reserves the right to suspend or terminate service immediately and without notice for any violation of this Acceptable Use Policy.

Petitext complies with U.S. A2P 10DLC, CTIA Messaging Principles, and carrier requirements.

Recipient consent is established by the recipient's own first inbound SMS to your rented number. Petitext does not permit any outbound SMS from a rented number to a third party who has not first texted that rental number. The platform enforces this at the relay layer: outbound delivery is only enabled per (rental, recipient) pair after that recipient's inbound message is received and logged. Renters have no mechanism to bypass this constraint.

Petitext automatically manages STOP, HELP, and START keyword replies to maintain compliance.

By using Petitext, you agree that:

• You will only send replies to recipients who have first texted your rental number;
• You will respect opt-out requests immediately and not re-contact opted-out recipients;
• You will not attempt to obtain phone numbers and induce them to text your rental number through deceptive or coercive means.
