# Proof of Capturing Consent to Send SMS Texts

## Phone carriers are tightening privacy standards and requiring proof that people are asked for their consent to be texted. This article will help make that easier on you!

**Your organization may already have a process that asks people for permission to be texted.** If that's the case, you will simply provide a link or screenshot of that process in your Settings. Here are two examples of how organizations ask for consent as part of their existing processes:

 

![consent 1-1](https://helpdesk.possip.com/hs-fs/hubfs/consent%201-1.png?width=561&height=276&name=consent%201-1.png)

![consent 2](https://helpdesk.possip.com/hs-fs/hubfs/consent%202.png?width=561&height=319&name=consent%202.png)

If your organization does not yet have a process like this, here's an easy way to meet this requirement: 

1. [Duplicate the form below](https://forms.gle/DuLadUeeZgZv9NuP8) to create your own version of a consent permission form.
2. Send this form to your community. You can provide it in a handbook or any other way you see fit.
3. [Please submit](https://helpdesk.possip.com/knowledge/possip-settings-pages?hsLang=en) the link to your form in Settings. *Note: Possip does not need proof that an individual parent or staff member has given consent to receive SMS texts. We are required to receive proof of your process.*

**Note**: 

Upon submitting your Proof of SMS Consent to Possip, it will take a **minimum of** **7 business days** for our phone provider to review your submission. During this review period, if you still wish to send Pulse Check surveys, they will be EMAIL ONLY as your phone number we would text from will not be operational. 

Your relationship manager will notify you of your proof’s approval/rejection and subsequent steps
