Text Message (SMS) Program

Masonic Youth Groups (MYG) — one-time verification codes only.

What this program sends

Masonic Youth Groups (MYG) operates a single text messaging program, used only to deliver one-time verification codes — also called two-factor authentication (2FA) or one-time passcodes (OTP) — to people using the MYG mobile app.

We never send marketing or promotional text messages. No advertising, newsletters, event promotion, or fundraising is ever sent on this program.

How you opt in

Opt-in happens inside the MYG mobile app, on the Create account screen. The phone number field is optional. When you enter a complete 10-digit US mobile number, a consent checkbox appears directly beneath it. It is unchecked by default — you must check it yourself. Its label reads:

I agree to receive one-time verification codes by text message from Masonic Youth Groups (MYG) at this number. Message frequency depends on your sign-in activity. Msg & data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out or HELP for help.

Consent is not a condition of using MYG. The Create account button is never blocked on the checkbox, and an account created with it unchecked is never sent a verification text.
