SMS Consent & Verification Policy

Last updated: April 2026

Hosting Telecom LTD ("we", "us", "our", "the Company") operates the HTC Net Messenger mobile application ("the App", "HTC Net Messenger"). This page describes how we use SMS messaging as part of our service.

SMS Verification Consent

By entering your phone number in the HTC Net Messenger application and tapping "Continue" to register or verify your account, you expressly consent to receive SMS text messages from HTC Net Messenger (operated by Hosting Telecom UK Ltd) containing one-time verification codes (OTP) at the phone number you provide.

Types of Messages

We send SMS messages exclusively for the following purposes:

  • One-time password (OTP) verification codes during account registration
  • Verification codes during phone number changes
  • Two-factor authentication (2FA) codes for account recovery

We do not send marketing messages, promotional content, or any other type of SMS communication.

Message Frequency

Message frequency is limited to one-time use during registration or account recovery. Typically, a user receives 1–3 SMS messages per registration attempt. Each message contains a 6-digit verification code valid for 10 minutes.

Message & Data Rates

Standard message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan. Hosting Telecom UK Ltd is not responsible for any charges incurred from your carrier.

Opt-Out

You may opt out of receiving SMS messages at any time by not completing the registration process or by replying STOP to any message received from our verification number. Once opted out, you will not receive further SMS messages unless you initiate a new registration or verification request.

Sample Message

"Your HTC Net verification code is: 123456. This code expires in 10 minutes. Do not share this code with anyone."
