Nadoba is a personal assistant service operated by Nader Hebela as a sole proprietor; each subscriber is served by a dedicated instance provisioned for their account. Nadoba sends subscribers account and transactional messages: reminders they have scheduled, notifications about their own calendar, travel, deliveries and home, replies to messages they send it, and one-time verification codes. It sends no marketing or promotional content. This policy explains what the service does with the information a subscriber gives it.
Consent to receive text messages is collected on the Nadoba account setup screen when an account is created. It is not collected by text message, and there is no keyword to text in.
Beneath the field for the subscriber's US mobile number is an unticked checkbox labelled “Turn on text messages (SMS)”, shown beside this consent statement:
I agree to receive automated text messages from my assistant at the US mobile number above — reminders, alerts and replies to messages I send it. Frequency varies with my own use, typically a few messages a day. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to any message to opt out, or HELP for help.
Ticking that box is what enables SMS, and the tick is recorded with a timestamp against that number, so there is a dated opt-in record for every number enrolled. Consent is given directly to Nader Hebela for messages from this service, is not bundled with any other agreement, and is not obtained from any list, lead provider, affiliate, or other third party. No number is enrolled by anyone other than the subscriber it belongs to.
No mobile information is shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. A mobile number is used solely to deliver this service's own messages to the subscriber who supplied it. Mobile numbers are never sold, rented, leased, or disclosed to any third party for any purpose.
Text messages are delivered through Twilio, which acts as the telecommunications carrier. The only information passed to Twilio is what is technically required to deliver a message, and its handling is governed by Twilio's own privacy policy.
Message frequency varies with each subscriber's own configuration and activity — typically a few messages a day, and in normal use fewer than ten.
Message and data rates may apply.
Reply STOP to any message to stop receiving messages. Reply HELP for assistance. SMS can also be switched off at any time from the same account setup screen where it was enabled.
The service stores only the data a subscriber supplies to it, or authorises it to access, for the purpose of carrying out the tasks that subscriber has asked it to perform. That data is held on the instance provisioned for that subscriber. It is not sold, shared, or used for advertising, profiling, or any purpose other than operating the assistant for that subscriber.
A subscriber may delete any stored data at any time, and may close the account entirely, at which point all associated data is destroyed.
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated date.
