Other Cortex Beauty marketing communications
Messages may be delivered through Rich Communication Services (“RCS”), SMS, or MMS. If RCS is unavailable or unsupported by your device or mobile carrier, messages may be delivered through SMS or MMS.
Consent to Receive Messages
By providing your mobile telephone number and opting in to the Cortex Beauty Mobile Messaging Program, you expressly consent to receive recurring automated promotional and personalized marketing messages from Cortex Beauty at the telephone number you provided.
Messages may be sent using automated technology. Your consent to receive marketing messages is not a condition of purchasing any goods or services from Cortex Beauty.
You represent that you are the owner or authorized user of the telephone number provided and that you are authorized to consent to receive messages at that number.
Message Frequency and Charges
Message frequency varies.
Message and data rates may apply. Charges are determined by your mobile carrier and may appear on your mobile telephone bill or be deducted from your prepaid balance.
Cortex Beauty does not charge a separate fee for participating in the Mobile Messaging Program, but you are responsible for any messaging, data, or other charges imposed by your mobile carrier.
How to Opt Out
You may opt out of the Cortex Beauty Mobile Messaging Program at any time by replying STOP to any message.
After submitting an opt-out request, you may receive one final message confirming that you have been unsubscribed. You will no longer receive marketing messages from the program unless you separately opt in again.
Opting out of marketing messages will not prevent Cortex Beauty from sending non-marketing messages that are necessary to complete a transaction, provide requested customer service, protect your account, or comply with applicable law.
Help and Customer Support
For assistance with the Cortex Beauty Mobile Messaging Program, reply HELP to any message or contact:
Email: Helpdesk@cortexbeauty.com

Delivery and Carrier Availability
Mobile carriers are not responsible for delayed or undelivered messages.
Message delivery is subject to the availability and performance of mobile networks, supported messaging services, compatible devices, and participating carriers. RCS features may not be available through every device or mobile carrier.
If an RCS message cannot be delivered, Cortex Beauty or its messaging provider may attempt to deliver the communication through SMS or MMS where supported and permitted.
Neither Cortex Beauty nor participating mobile carriers guarantee that messages will be delivered without delay or interruption.
Changing Your Telephone Number
If you change, transfer, or deactivate the telephone number used to enroll in the Mobile Messaging Program, you agree to opt out before changing or deactivating that number or to notify Cortex Beauty promptly.
You agree that failing to notify Cortex Beauty of a number change may result in messages being sent to the person who later receives that telephone number.

We do not sell, rent, or share mobile messaging originator opt-in data or consent with non-affiliated third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.
