SMS Terms & Conditions

Last updated: September 10, 2026

How We Get Your Permission

Kare Pharmacy sends text messages only for the transactional and service purposes described below. We do not send marketing or promotional text messages. Here is how permission to text you is given:

  • Order and prescription updates. When you give us a mobile number and affirmatively turn on text updates, by selecting the optional, unchecked text-updates checkbox on a payment page or in your patient portal, or by giving us permission on the phone, you agree to receive automated text messages from Kare Pharmacy about your prescriptions and orders. These may include payment links and reminders, prescription-ready and pickup notices, shipping and tracking updates, delivery notices, refill reminders, notices about automatic refills you set up, and one request for your feedback after an order is complete. You can turn text updates off in your portal or by replying STOP.
  • Website forms. If you select the optional, unchecked text-updates box on our contact form or a treatment-information form, you are giving us permission to text you about that request. We only text about the request itself.
  • Spoken consent. If you tell a pharmacist on a call that we may text you, the pharmacist records that verbal consent, the number, and the date. That record is your permission.
  • Feedback requests. After your order is complete we may text you one request for your feedback. We send it only to a number that already has text permission on file, and the permission you gave says so before you agree. We send at most one per order and we do not chase it. Reply STOP and we will not send it.
  • Receipts. If you ask for a receipt by text at our counter, we send that one receipt. Asking for a receipt is not permission for other messages.
  • Verification codes. If you ask to verify your number or sign in by text, we send you the code you requested.

Your consent is not a condition of any purchase or service. Message and data rates may apply.

What We Will Text You About

Depending on how you gave us permission above, you may receive text messages about:

  • Payment links and payment reminders
  • Shipping and tracking updates
  • Delivery notices
  • Notices that your prescription is ready for pickup
  • One request for your feedback after an order is complete
  • Refill reminders
  • Notices about an automatic refill you set up, if you turned on that feature
  • Receipts you ask for at the counter
  • Verification codes, when you ask to verify your number or sign in
  • Replies about a question you sent us through our website

We do not send marketing or promotional text messages, and each category above only reaches you through one of the permission paths described earlier.

How Often We Text You

Message frequency varies based on your prescription, order, refill, and account activity. Most patients receive a few messages per order. Verification codes and receipts are sent only when you ask.

Message and Data Rates

Message and data rates may apply. Please consult your mobile carrier for details about your text messaging plan. Kare Pharmacy is not responsible for any charges from your mobile carrier.

How to Opt Out

You can opt out of receiving text messages at any time by:

  • Replying STOP to any text message you receive from us
  • Turning text updates off in your patient portal
  • Calling us at (434) 792-8281
  • Emailing us at support@kare-rx.com
  • Visiting our pharmacy in person

We may send you one text confirming your opt-out. After that you will no longer receive text messages from Kare Pharmacy unless you opt in again. You do not have to use the word STOP — any clear request to stop texting you will do.

Privacy

Your mobile number and the information you provide will be used in accordance with our Privacy Policy. We do not sell, rent, or share your mobile phone number or your SMS opt-in and consent information with third parties or affiliates for their marketing or promotional purposes. We may provide this information to service providers that help us operate our messaging program, subject to appropriate contractual and privacy protections.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these SMS Terms & Conditions from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Changes to these Terms do not expand the scope of your consent or override an opt-out. If applicable law requires new consent for a change in our messaging practices, we will obtain that consent before sending the affected messages.
