Privacy Policy
1. Who we are
Oakshire Holdings LLC ("Oakshire," "we," "us," or "our") is a limited liability company registered in New Jersey, United States. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information in connection with our services, including the Kuma personal assistant service delivered by SMS text message.
By using our services, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information we collect
We collect only what we need to provide our services:
- Contact information — your mobile phone number, and your name or email address if you provide one.
- Message content — the text of messages you send to the Kuma service and the replies we send to you.
- Consent records — a record that you consented to receive messages, and the date that consent was given.
- Service and technical data — basic delivery information such as timestamps and message status, used to operate and troubleshoot the service.
We do not sell personal information, and we do not collect information from you for advertising purposes.
3. How we use information
We use the information we collect to:
- Respond to messages you send to the Kuma service;
- Operate, maintain, secure, and improve our services;
- Maintain records of consent and opt-out requests; and
- Comply with applicable laws, regulations, and carrier requirements.
4. SMS and mobile information
Kuma is a private, reply-only messaging service. We send messages only in reply to messages sent to us by authorized users who have previously provided consent. We do not send unsolicited, promotional, or marketing text messages.
No sharing of mobile information. Mobile information and messaging consent will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. All categories of the above exclusions apply to sharing mobile information; no mobile information is shared with third parties for their own marketing purposes.
Message frequency varies with your use of the service. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP at any time to opt out, or HELP for assistance.
Information may be shared with our messaging service provider solely for the purpose of transmitting and delivering messages on our behalf. Such providers are not permitted to use your information for their own marketing purposes.
5. Sharing and disclosure
We do not sell, rent, or trade personal information. We may share information only in these limited circumstances:
- Service providers — vendors who help us operate the service, such as our telecommunications and hosting providers, acting under our instructions;
- Legal requirements — when required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other valid legal process; and
- Protection of rights — where necessary to protect the rights, property, or safety of Oakshire Holdings LLC, our users, or others.
6. Retention
We retain information only as long as needed to provide the service and to meet legal, regulatory, and recordkeeping obligations — including retaining consent and opt-out records as required by applicable messaging regulations. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or render it unidentifiable.
7. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information against unauthorized access, loss, or misuse. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your choices and rights
You may at any time:
- Opt out of messages by replying STOP to any message from the Kuma service;
- Request assistance by replying HELP;
- Request access to, correction of, or deletion of the personal information we hold about you, by contacting us using the details below.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under applicable privacy laws. We will honor valid requests as required by law.
9. Children's privacy
Our services are not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will delete it.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes will be communicated to affected users where required.
