Our Mobile Messaging Service is provided by Walker & Frick Construction, Inc. and is subject to the
following terms and conditions.
Mobile Messaging Terms & Conditions
Walker & Frick Construction, Co. (“We,” “Us,” “Our”) is offering a mobile messaging program (the
“Program”), subject to these Mobile Messaging Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”). If you do not
wish to continue participating in the program or no longer agree to these Terms, you can
reply “STOP” to any mobile message from Us in order to opt out of the Program. User Opt In: The
Program allows users to receive SMS/MMS mobile messages by users affirmatively opting into the
Program. Regardless of the opt-in method you utilized to join the Program, you agree that these
Terms apply to your participation in the Program. The mobile messaging service used by Us to
communicate with you requires human intervention for Our mobile messages to be initiated, and
thus Our mobile messages are not sent to you by an automatic telephone dialing system (“ATDS” or
“autodialer”). Nevertheless, by participating in the Program, you agree to receive autodialed
marketing mobile messages. Program Description: Without limiting the scope of the Program,
users that opt into the Program can expect to receive messages from Our customers, for alerts,
coupons, specials, and promotions. Cost and Frequency: Message and data rates may apply. The
Program involves recurring mobile messages, and additional mobile messages may be sent based
on your interaction with Us. Contact Information: For support text “HELP” to 804-282-1281, or to
any of Our mobile messages, or email office@WalkerFrickConstruction.com. User Opt Out and
Additional Commands: To opt out (discontinue participation in Program), reply “STOP” to 804-
282-1281, or to any of Our mobile messages from your mobile device. This is the easiest and
preferred method to opt out of the Program. You may receive an additional mobile message
confirming your decision to opt out. You may also opt out by texting “QUIT”, “END”, “CANCEL”,
“UNSUBSCRIBE”, or “STOP ALL” to 804-282-1281 or to any of Our mobile messages you receive,
or by contacting Us via the means provided above and clearly communicating your intent to
unsubscribe from the Program. For additional support, text “HELP” to 804-282-1281 to get
help. MMS Disclosure: The Program will send SMS MTs if your mobile device does not support MMS
messaging. Disclaimer: The Program is offered on an “as is” basis. We will not be liable for any
delays or failures in the receipt of any mobile messages connected with this Program. Delivery of
mobile messages is subject to effective transmission from your wireless service provider/network
operator and is outside of Our control. Your wireless service provider/network operator is not liable
for delayed or undelivered mobile messages. Your participation in the Program is at your sole
discretion and risk, and if you are dissatisfied with the Program, message content, or these Terms,
you should opt-out and cease use of the Program. Privacy Policy: We respect your privacy. We will
only use information you provide to transmit your mobile messages and respond to you, if
necessary. WE DO NOT SELL, RENT, LOAN, TRADE, LEASE OR OTHERWISE TRANSFER FOR
PROFIT ANY PHONE NUMBERS OR CUSTOMER INFORMATION COLLECTED THROUGH THE
PROGRAM TO ANY THIRD PARTY. Nonetheless, We reserve the right at all times to disclose any
information as necessary to satisfy any law, regulation or governmental request, to avoid liability, or
to protect Our rights or property. When you complete forms online or otherwise provide Us
information in connection with the Program, you agree to provide accurate, complete, and true
information. You agree not to use a false or misleading name or a name that you are not authorized
to use. If in Our sole discretion, believe that any such information is untrue, inaccurate, or
incomplete, or you have opted into the Program for an ulterior purpose, We may refuse you access
to the Program and pursue any appropriate legal remedies. This Privacy Policy is strictly limited to
the Program and has no effect on any other privacy policy(ies) that may govern the relationship
between you and Us in other contexts. Dispute Resolution: In the event that there is a dispute,
claim or controversy between you and Us, or between you and any third-party service provider
acting on Our behalf to transmit the mobile messages within the scope of the Program, arising out
of or relating to federal or state statutory claims, common law claims, these Terms, Our Privacy
Policy, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the
determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, such dispute, claim or
controversy will be determined by arbitration in Dallas, Texas before one arbitrator. The arbitration
will be administered by JAMS. For claims greater than $250,000, the JAMS Comprehensive
Arbitration Rules and Procedures in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced will apply. For
claims less than or equal to $250,000, the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules in effect at the time
the arbitration is commenced will apply. The arbitrator will apply the substantive law of the State of
Texas, exclusive of its conflict or choice of law rules. Nothing in this paragraph will preclude the
parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate
jurisdiction. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving
interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in this paragraph with respect to applicable
substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) will govern any arbitration conducted
pursuant to these Terms. Either party may commence arbitration by providing to JAMS and the other
party to the dispute a written demand for arbitration, setting forth the subject of the dispute and the
relief requested (“Arbitration Demand”). To the fullest extent permitted by law, each of the parties
agrees that any proceeding, whether in arbitration or in court, will be conducted only on an
individual basis and not in a class, consolidated or representative action. If for any reason a claim
proceeds in court rather than through arbitration, each party knowingly and irrevocably waives any
right to trial by jury in any action, proceeding or counterclaim arising out of or relating to this
Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby. The appointed arbitrator may award
monetary damages, and any other remedies allowed by the state law designated above. In making
his or her determination, the arbitrator will not have the authority to modify any term or provision of
these Terms. The arbitrator will deliver a reasoned written decision with respect to the dispute (the
“Award”) to each party, who will promptly act in accordance the Award. Any Award (including
interim or final remedies) may be confirmed or enforced in any court having jurisdiction, including
any court having jurisdiction over either party or its assets. The decision of the arbitrator will be final
and binding on the parties and will not be subject to appeal or review. Each party will advance onehalf of the fees and expenses of the arbitrator, the costs of the attendance of the court reporter at
the arbitration hearing, and the costs of the arbitration facility. In any arbitration arising out of or
related to these Terms, the arbitrators will award to the prevailing party, if any, costs and attorneys’
fees reasonably incurred by the prevailing party in connection with that aspect of its claims or
defenses on which it prevails, and any opposing awards of costs and attorneys’ fees awards will be
offset. The parties will maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding, the hearing
and the Award, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the
merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary
remedy, or confirmation of an Award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by any
applicable law. Any documentary or other evidence produced in any arbitration hereunder will be
treated as confidential by the parties, witnesses and arbitrators, and will not be disclosed to any
third person (other than witnesses or experts), except as required by any applicable law or except if
such evidence was obtained from the public domain or is otherwise obtained independently of the
arbitration. Miscellaneous: You warrant and represent to Us that you have all necessary rights,
power, and authority to agree to these Terms and perform your obligations hereunder, and nothing
contained in this Agreement or in the performance of such obligations will place you in breach of
any other contract or obligation. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right
provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of
these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to
the minimum extent necessary so that this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect
and enforceable. Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be
subject to these Terms unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing. We reserve the right to change
these Terms from time to time. Any material updates to these Terms shall be communicated to you.
You acknowledge your responsibility to review these Terms from time to time and to be aware of any
such changes. By continuing to participate in the Program after any such changes, you accept
these Terms, as modified.

believe trustworthy and who have confirmed that their privacy practices are consistent with ours
(“Service Providers”). For example, we may contract with Service Providers to provide certain
services, such as hosting and maintenance, data storage and management, and marketing and
promotions. We only provide our Service Providers with the information necessary for them to

6. Cookies
We may use cookies (a small text file placed on your computer to identify your computer and web
browser) and may use anonymous identifiers (a random string of characters that is used for the
same purposes as a cookie). We may use cookies and other similar technologies to analyze use of
and improve the Site and Services and as described in the Advertising and Online Tracking Section
of this Privacy Policy. Most web browsers are initially set up to accept cookies. You can reset your
web browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent, however, certain
features of the Site or Services may not work if you delete or disable cookies. Some of our Service
Providers (defined below) may use their own cookies, anonymous identifiers, or other tracking
technology in connection with the services they perform on our behalf.
We may use Google Analytics on the Site and Services to analyze how users use the Site and
Services, and to provide advertisements to you on other websites. For more information about how
to opt out of having your information used by Google Analytics,
visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout/.
7. Session Replay Technology
We use session replay technology on our Site. Session replay technology, also referred to as
session playback or user experience (UX) replay, collects information regarding records and tracks
your interactions with a website or application. It then transforms those logged user events (such as
mouse movements, clicks, page visits, scrolling, tapping, etc.) into a reproduction of what you
actually did on the website or application. We use session replays for quality control, customer
service, fraud prevention and security, and marketing purposes. Our session replay technology is
owned and operated by a third-party who acts as our service provider. The information collected by
this technology may be collected by, transferred to, and stored by our third-party service provider.
8. ChatBot Technology
We use chatbots to help provide customer service and support, including through the use of a
virtual assistant. A chatbot is a software application that mimics human conversations in text or
voice interactions on our website or through our customer service hotline. It enables the
communication between a human and a machine, which can take the form of messages or voice
commands. The chatbot is designed to work without the assistance of a human operator. It
responds to questions posed to it in natural language as if it were a real person using a combination
of pre-programmed scripts and machine learning algorithms. When asked a question, the chatbot
will answer using the knowledge database that is currently available to it. If the conversation
introduces a concept it isn’t programmed to understand; it will pass it to a human operator. If you
use our chatbot service, we will collect any information you provide to us. We will also create and
store a transcript of your chat interaction with us which will be shared with and stored by our thirdparty service provider. We use these transcripts and the information you provide for quality control,
customer service, fraud prevention and security.
9. Advertising and Online Tracking
We may place advertisements and allow third-party companies to serve ads and collect certain
information when you visit the Site. These companies may use certain information (e.g. click stream
information, web browser type, time and date, subject of advertisements clicked or scrolled over)
during your visits to this Site and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods
and services likely to be of interest to you (i.e., for cross-contextual behavioral advertising). These
companies may also collect information about your activities on our Site on your current device
and combine it with information about your activities on other websites, mobile apps, and devices.
These companies typically collect such information using server logs, cookies, web beacons, tags,
pixels, mobile advertising IDs (such as Facebook cookies or Google's Advertising ID), cross-device
linking, and similar technologies. They may match your browsers or devices if you log into the same
online service on multiple devices or if your devices share similar attributes that support an
inference that they are used by the same person or household. This means that information about
your activity on websites or apps on your current browser or device may be combined and used
with information collected from your other browsers or devices. These third party partners use this
information for our and their own advertising, analytics, attribution, and reporting purposes. Our
systems do not recognize browser “Do Not Track” signals, but several of our Service Providers who
utilize these cookies on this Site enable you to opt out of targeted advertising practices. To learn
more about these advertising practices or to opt out of this type of advertising, you can
visit www.networkadvertising.org or www.aboutads.info/choices/. Options you make are device
specific.
10. Managing Your Information Preferences
You can opt out of receiving marketing e-mails from us by following the link provided at the bottom
of all marketing e-mails you receive from us. You are able to opt out of receiving marketing e-mails
from us, however, you cannot opt out of receiving all e-mails from us, such as e-mails about the
status of your account.
11. Be Careful When You Share Information with Others
Please be aware that whenever you share information on any public area of the Site or Services,
that information may be accessed by others. In addition, please remember that when you share
information in any other communications with third parties, that information may be passed along
or made public by others. This means that anyone with access to such information can potentially
use it for any purpose, including sending unsolicited communications. We cannot control and are
not responsible for what such third parties may do with your information, so you should exercise
caution when choosing to share it.
12. Security
We maintain physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to help protect the confidentiality and
security of information transmitted to us. Personal information may be accessed by persons within
our organization, or other entities described in this Privacy Policy, or our third-party service
providers, who require such access to carry out the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, or as
otherwise permitted or required by applicable law.
However, no data transmission over the Internet or other network can be guaranteed to be 100%
secure, and no security measures can provide absolute protection. As a result, while we strive to
protect information transmitted on or through the Site or Services, we cannot and do not guarantee
the security of any information you transmit on or through the Site or Services, or that you otherwise
provide to us, and you do so at your own risk.
13. Links
Our Site and Services may contain links to other websites or allow others to send you such links. A
link to a third party’s website does not mean that we endorse it or that we are affiliated with it. We
do not exercise control over third-party websites and are not responsible for their practices. You
access such third-party websites or content at your own risk. You should always read the privacy
policy of a third-party website before providing any information to the website.
14. Children’s Privacy
The Site and Services are intended for users who are 18 years old or older. We do not knowingly
collect Personal Information from children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have
inadvertently received Personal Information from a child under the age of 13, we will delete such
information from our records.
15. Processing in the United States
Please be aware that your Personal Information and communications may be transferred to and
maintained on servers or databases located outside your state, province, or country. If you are
located outside of the United States, please be advised that we process and store all information in
the United States. The laws in the United States may not be as protective of your privacy as those in
your location. Personal information processed and stored in another country may be subject to
disclosure or access requests by the governments, courts or law enforcement or regulatory
agencies in that country according to its laws. By using the Site or Services, you are agreeing to the
collection, use, transfer, and disclosure of your Personal Information and communications will be
governed by the applicable laws in the United States. If you have any questions regarding
international data transfers, you may contact us using the contact information we provide below.
16. Notice to Residents of Canada
If you are a resident of Canada, you may have certain privacy rights under Canadian privacy law.
You have a right to request access to your personal information and to request a correction to it if
you believe it is inaccurate. If you would like to have access to the personal information we have
