Midvale Haunt offers a text-to-trigger feature that lets guests activate a live show effect from their vehicle by sending a text message to our dedicated show number.
What we collect: When you text our show-trigger number, we receive your phone number and message content solely to process your show trigger request in real time.
How we use it: Your phone number is used only to:
We do not store your phone number for marketing purposes, build a contact list from it, or use it for any purpose beyond this immediate interaction.
Sharing: We do not sell, rent, or share your phone number or message content with third parties, except as required by our SMS service provider (Twilio) to deliver the service, or as required by law.
Message and data rates: Standard message and data rates from your carrier may apply.
Retention: While your show is running (about six minutes), your phone number is held in the show controller's memory so your reply can be matched to you, and it is cleared when the show ends. Trigger messages may be retained briefly in system logs for troubleshooting and abuse prevention, then routinely deleted. We do not maintain an ongoing subscriber list.
Your choices: Text STOP at any time if you do not wish to receive automated text messages. Text HELP for assistance.
Contact us: Questions about this policy can be directed to josh8587@gmail.com.
Eligibility: This service is intended for guests visiting or approaching Midvale Haunt. By texting our show-trigger number, you agree to these terms.
Service description: Texting the keyword SCARE to our show-trigger line will attempt to activate a live special-effects sequence at Midvale Haunt. About a minute into the show you may receive a text asking you to reply YES or NO. You have 15 seconds to answer. Only the guest who started the show can answer, and only the first answer counts. If you do not answer, the show continues on its own. When your show ends you will receive one thank-you text; tips are welcome but never required. Only one show can run at a time, so your text may not activate the show if another guest has recently triggered it.
Keywords: SCARE starts the show. YES and NO answer the prompt during your show. STOP opts you out and HELP gets help.
No guarantee of delivery: We do not guarantee that every text will result in a triggered show effect, or that the prompt or your answer will arrive in time, due to factors including network delays, carrier delays, one-show-at-a-time limits, or technical issues. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
Message frequency: Message frequency varies. You will typically receive up to four automated messages per show you start. This is not a recurring or marketing message program.
Safety: Please text only while parked, never while driving.
Opt-out: Reply STOP to stop receiving automated text messages. Reply HELP for support.
Changes: These terms may be updated from time to time; the current version will always be posted at this page.
