4. Text Messages (SMS) and Jobber Messaging
If you provide a mobile number on our website, over the phone, by text, or through Jobber, you may receive SMS messages from Tejas Pest and Weed Control related to your account and services.
Types of messages: appointment confirmations and reminders, technician on-the-way or arrival notices, quote follow-ups, invoice and payment notices, service updates, warranty reminders, and replies to questions you send us. We may occasionally send service-related promotions if you have opted in.
Message frequency varies. Most customers receive a small number of messages around a scheduled job. Frequency depends on the work you request and whether you reply.
Message and data rates may apply.
Consent to receive texts is not a condition of purchase. You can still hire us if you prefer phone or email only.
Opt out: Reply STOP to any message to unsubscribe from SMS. After we process STOP, we will not send further marketing or automated service texts to that number, except a single confirmation that you have been unsubscribed. You may also email bmerrill@tejaspwc.com or call (432) 934-5248.
Help: Reply HELP or contact us at (432) 934-5248 or bmerrill@tejaspwc.com.
We use Jobber and telecommunications carriers to deliver texts. Those providers process message content and phone numbers as needed to send and receive messages.
5. How We Share Information
We share information only as needed to run the business:
- Service platforms such as Jobber (scheduling, invoicing, two-way SMS)
- Payment processors if you pay by card or electronic invoice
- Website and hosting providers
- Licensed subcontractors or industry partners only when needed to complete work you requested
- Legal, insurance, or regulatory authorities when required by law or to protect our rights and safety
We do not rent or sell customer lists.
6. How We Store and Protect Information
We store customer records in industry tools (including Jobber) and on devices used by authorized team members. Access is limited to people who need the information to schedule or perform work. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure.
We keep service and treatment records for as long as needed for warranties, licensing, tax, and business purposes, then delete or de-identify them when they are no longer required.

You may request to review, update, or delete personal information we hold about you, subject to records we must keep for legal or licensing reasons. Contact bmerrill@tejaspwc.com or (432) 934-5248.
