SMS Terms & Consent
Version: 1.1
Last Updated: February 23, 2026
Summary: When you enter your phone number in Dreamscape, consent language is displayed directly in the phone authentication sheet before you tap "Send OTP." By tapping that button, you expressly consent to receive text messages containing one-time password (OTP) codes for account verification. You can opt out anytime by replying STOP or switching to email authentication.
SMS Consent Overview
Dreamscape uses SMS text messaging solely for account authentication purposes. When you sign up or log in using a phone number, you will receive one-time password (OTP) codes via text message.
How Consent Works
Consent to receive SMS messages is collected at the point of phone number entry through a dedicated, standalone opt-in — it is not bundled into the general Terms of Service acceptance.
In-App Consent Flow
When you choose phone authentication in Dreamscape, a phone authentication sheet appears where you enter your number. Directly on that sheet, before the "Send OTP" button, the following consent language is displayed:
"By tapping 'Send OTP,' you agree to receive automated text messages for authentication at this number. Message frequency varies. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, HELP for help. Consent is not a condition of using Dreamscape. See our SMS Terms."
You provide consent by:
- Entering your phone number in the phone authentication sheet
- Reviewing the consent disclosure displayed directly above the "Send OTP" button
- Tapping "Send OTP" — this action constitutes your express consent to receive SMS messages
This opt-in is separate from and independent of the general Terms of Service acceptance. You must affirmatively take the action of tapping "Send OTP" after seeing the consent language to begin receiving messages.
What You're Consenting To
By providing your phone number for SMS authentication, you expressly consent to:
- Receive automated text messages containing one-time password (OTP) codes
- Message frequency: Varies based on your login activity (typically 1-5 messages per week)
- Message service provider: Messages are sent via Twilio
- No marketing messages: We only send authentication codes, no promotional content
Message and Data Rates
Standard message and data rates may apply based on your mobile carrier's plan. Dreamscape does not charge for SMS messages, but your carrier may. Contact your carrier for details about your messaging plan.
How to Opt Out
You can stop receiving SMS messages at any time by:
- Reply by text: Reply STOP to any message from us. You can also reply with STOPALL, UNSUBSCRIBE, CANCEL, END, QUIT, OPTOUT, or REVOKE
- In the app: Go to Settings → Account → Authentication Method → Switch to Email
- Delete account: Deleting your account stops all messages
After texting STOP, you will receive a confirmation message: "You have successfully been unsubscribed. You will not receive any more messages from this number. Reply START to resubscribe."
Note: Opting out of SMS means you must use email for authentication. You cannot use SMS login after opting out unless you opt back in through app settings or by replying START to resubscribe.
SMS is Optional
You are not required to use SMS authentication. Email authentication is always available as an alternative. Consent to receive SMS is not a condition of using Dreamscape.
Privacy and Data
Your phone number is used only for authentication. We do not:
- Share your phone number with third parties (except Twilio for SMS delivery)
- Use your phone number for marketing
- Store your messages or OTP codes after they expire
See our Privacy Policy for more information about how we handle your data.
Supported Carriers
SMS authentication works with all major US carriers and most international carriers. If you experience issues receiving messages, contact your carrier to ensure SMS is enabled on your plan.

Relationship to Terms of Service
These SMS Terms supplement our Terms of Service. However, SMS consent itself is collected separately through the in-app phone authentication flow described above — it is not part of the general Terms of Service acceptance.
