SMS Compliance — Detailed Documentation

Dernière mise à jour : July 17, 2026

This page is intended for messaging providers' and carriers' compliance teams. It describes the transactional nature of NeverForget® SMS notifications, the evidence retained and the contact points.

1. Nature of the service

NeverForget® is a private-message delivery platform. Authenticated users compose private content, but NeverForget® remains the A2P sender of every SMS notification. The SMS is a standardized transactional message that only informs the recipient that private content is available on a secure delivery page hosted on https://nfgt.eu.

2. Opt-in type

The authenticated user creates an individual delivery request and declares, when creating the SMS Intention®, that the recipient is a person they know, that the number does not come from a purchased, rented, scraped or imported list, and that the number is provided solely to execute the requested delivery. The evidence listed below documents the user's request and declarations; it does not claim to be a form filled in directly by the recipient.

Declaration text (version v1-2026-07-11)

The exact text shown to the user is available in the Transactional SMS Notification Policy.

NeverForget®'s US sender number is subject to the registration and verification procedures required by its telecom providers before any production use.
