GOCare products and services are available only to NuTEQ clients and our clients’ subscribers (individually or collectively “you” and “your” (or derivatives)). GOCare products and services may be offered as layered services in conjunction with one or more “partner” provider(s) – directly or indirectly – under contract with NuTEQ or otherwise. These Terms and Conditions apply in addition to all other terms, agreements, and policies that third-party service provider may impose.
GOCare Connect is a unified messaging platform capable of delivering communications between our client employee(s) and their customer(s) or between team members within the client Company. Communications may be in the form of email, SMS, web chat, a variety of social media channels, and / or VoIP phone service. One or more of these channels may require facilitation by a third-party service provider (Facebook, Verizon, etc). NuTEQ’s client may be required to separately contract for an account or service from one or more of these parties to successfully deploy GOCare Connect. These Terms and Conditions hereby incorporate the respective Terms and Conditions of such third-party providers for the benefit of NuTEQ in delivering GOCare Connect and its related service offerings.
In order to use GOCare, you may be required to provide information about yourself (such as account identification, phone number(s), and contact details) to verify your status as the account holder or authorized person on the NuTEQ client account. By providing your mobile phone number(s) to a NuTEQ client, you provide us with your express consent to receive text message (Short Messaging Service “SMS” and Multimedia Messaging Service “MMS”) alerts at that number and (i) acknowledge and represent to us that you are the authorized user of the mobile phone(s) that you link to our text message service or have been granted permission by the authorized user of the mobile phone(s) to enroll such mobile phone(s) in the service; (ii) you grant NuTEQ express permission to send text messages to that (those) mobile phone(s) through your wireless phone carrier unless and until such permission is revoked in accordance with these terms and conditions; (iii) your receipt of SMS and/or MMS messages from NuTEQ (“NuTEQ alerts”) is NOT a violation of state or federal rules including, but not limited to, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) or Controlling the Assault of Non-Solicited Pornography and Marketing (CAN-SPAM) Act or a violation of the California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA) of 2020 or California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA) of 2018; (iv) you understand that your wireless carrier may charge you additional message and data fees for receipt of our text messages; and (v) by granting such permission to NuTEQ you are hereby requesting to receive such messages in spite of the fact that your number may otherwise be on the federal, or a state’s, do not call list and you agree, to the maximum extent permitted by law, that such text messages shall not be in violation of such do not call list(s).
Types of GOCare: Informational and emergency text message alerts may be activated on your account automatically, you may receive enrollment confirmation message, or both. These messages allow us to inform you about planned and unplanned service outages in your area, appointment reminders, as well as remind you about important account information (invoice availability, balance due and payment due dates, payment confirmations, and other issues). If you do not wish to receive such alerts, you must notify us as indicated below. We may also inform you about the availability of special promotions that we are offering through text messages.
Stopping GOCare: Text alerts can be cancelled at any time by texting “STOP” from your mobile phone in response to a text message from NuTEQ, or texting “STOP” to 90622. You agree that your prior express consent to receive text alerts shall continue indefinitely unless and until you cancel your prior express consent through the means mentioned in this paragraph. Other methods or means attempted to revoke your prior express consent may cause unnecessary delay or be ineffective and you hereby release NuTEQ from any liability related to your efforts to revoke your prior express consent by methods or means other than texting “STOP” (without spaces or other words) to 90622. If revoking your consent by texting “STOP” to 90622 (or in response to a NuTEQ Alert), your text message should contain only the word “STOP” without any additional words, spaces, or characters either before or after the word “STOP”. NuTEQ will reasonably endeavor to comply with other text (email or phone) communications in which you indicate a clear and unmistakable intent to revoke your prior permission; however, you (a) understand that text messages to 90622 go to an automated number that is not monitored by a human, and the ability to interpret your intent is severely restricted and, therefore, (b) you hereby release NuTEQ from any liability for your efforts to revoke your permission via a text message that does not strictly comply with the terms stated in the first sentence of this paragraph. Furthermore, by activating text alerts, you hereby grant NuTEQ express permission (without qualification) to respond to your cancellation request whether that request came through a telephone call with a NuTEQ employee, or by texting “STOP” with a confirmatory text message in return that will (i) confirm receipt of your cancellation request as well as (ii) indicate that you will no longer receive text alerts from NuTEQ. Furthermore, you agree that NuTEQ will reasonably endeavor to send you the aforementioned confirmatory cancellation text message in a timely manner.
However, you hereby release NuTEQ from any liability related to a confirmatory text message or the timeliness in which you receive one.
