Legal Requests at SMSPool.net

At SMSPool.net, we take privacy, security, and compliance seriously. We understand that, from time to time, government authorities or legal representatives may request information about our platform or its users. This page explains how SMSPool handles such legal requests and what procedures apply.

SMSPool.net accepts the following types of official legal requests:

Court orders or subpoenas
