SMS Messaging & Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 20, 2026

Who We Are

Technology Solutions Associates LLC (“TechSola,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates https://www.techsola.com/. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and retain personal information when you visit our website, contact us, or participate in our SMS messaging program.

Information We Collect and How We Use It

Information You Provide

When you contact us, request information, or communicate with us about our services, we collect the information you provide. This may include your name, company name, email address, telephone number, and the contents of your inquiry or other communications. We use this information to respond to requests, provide services and support, manage our business relationship with you, and maintain appropriate business records.

Comments

If comments are enabled and you leave a comment on our website, we collect the information shown in the comments form, along with your IP address and browser user agent information, to help detect spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address, also called a hash, may be sent to Gravatar to determine whether you use that service. After your comment is approved, your profile picture may be publicly visible alongside your comment. You can review the Automattic Privacy Policy for information about Gravatar’s privacy practices.

User Accounts

If you have an account on our website, we store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can view and edit your profile information, except your username, and request deletion of your personal information as described below. Website administrators can also view and edit user profile information.

Cookies

Cookies are small files stored by your browser. Our website uses WordPress cookies to support available features such as commenting, account access, and publishing:

  • Comment preferences: If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website in cookies so that you do not have to enter them again for a future comment. These cookies last for one year.
  • Login page: If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie determines whether your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal information and is discarded when you close your browser.
  • Login information: When you log in, cookies save your login information for two days. Selecting “Remember Me” extends your login to two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.
  • Display preferences: Cookies that store your screen display preferences last for one year.
  • Editing and publishing: If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie records the article’s post ID. It contains no personal information and expires after one day.

You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking cookies may prevent certain website features from working properly.

Uploaded Images and Image Optimization

If you upload images to our website, avoid including embedded location information, such as EXIF GPS data. Visitors may be able to download publicly displayed images and extract any location information contained in those files.

We use EWWW Image Optimizer to help optimize website images. External processing depends on which features are enabled:

  • Compress API: When this feature is enabled, images, including user-submitted images, may be transmitted to compression servers in the United States. Images are returned after processing and deleted from those servers unless the backup feature is enabled, in which case copies may be stored for up to 30 days.
  • Easy IO: When this feature is enabled, images displayed on the website, including user-submitted images, are transmitted to and stored on a global network of third-party servers known as a content delivery network (CDN). Under EWWW’s current retention policy, these files may be stored on that network for up to one year.

For more information, review the EWWW Image Optimizer Privacy Policy.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Our website may include embedded videos, images, articles, or other content from third-party websites. Interacting with embedded content may allow the provider to collect information as though you had visited its website directly.

These providers may use cookies, collect information about you, use additional tracking technologies, and monitor your interactions with their content. If you have an account with a provider and are logged in, the provider may associate those interactions with your account. The provider’s privacy policy governs its collection and use of that information.

How We Share Information

We do not sell or rent your personal information or share it with third parties for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share limited information with service providers as necessary to operate and maintain our website, protect its security, process images, respond to inquiries, and deliver business communications. Service providers acting on our behalf are expected to handle information only as needed to provide their services and subject to applicable confidentiality and data-protection obligations.

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the password reset email.

We may also disclose information when required by law or when reasonably necessary to protect our legal rights, address fraud or security concerns, or protect the safety of others.

SMS Messaging Terms and Privacy

Consent and Message Types

By providing your mobile phone number and opting in to receive SMS messages from Technology Solutions Associates LLC, you consent to receive text messages related to our services, support communications, account notices, scheduling, and other business-related information covered by your opt-in. Consent to receive SMS messages is not a condition of purchase.

Use and Protection of Mobile Information

We use your mobile phone number for legitimate business communications related to your interaction with TechSola. We do not sell, rent, or share mobile phone numbers, SMS opt-in information, or consent records with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share limited information with trusted service providers strictly as necessary to deliver SMS messages on our behalf, subject to confidentiality and data-protection obligations.

Message Frequency and Fees

Message frequency varies based on your interaction with TechSola, the services you receive, and the nature of the messaging program. Messages may be recurring or sent as needed.

Message and data rates may apply under your mobile carrier’s plan. TechSola does not charge a separate fee for SMS messages and is not responsible for charges imposed by your carrier.

Opting Out

You may opt out of our SMS messaging program at any time by replying STOP to a message. You may receive a final message confirming your opt-out request. After opting out, you will no longer receive messages from that program unless you later re-enroll or provide renewed consent.

Help and Support

For assistance, reply HELP to a message, email info@techsola.com, or call (717) 803-8000.

How Long We Retain Information

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so that we can recognize and approve follow-up comments rather than hold them in a moderation queue.

If you have a website account, we retain the personal information stored in your user profile while the account remains active, subject to deletion requests and any information we must retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

We retain inquiries, service communications, and SMS consent records for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this policy, maintain appropriate business records, resolve disputes, and meet applicable legal obligations. Cookie durations and external image-processing retention periods are described in the relevant sections above.

Your Privacy Choices and Requests

You may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information we hold about you. If you have a website account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal information we hold about you, including information you provided.

Deletion requests do not apply to information we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security purposes. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling a request. To submit a privacy request, email info@techsola.com or call (717) 803-8000.

Data Security and Applicable Law

TechSola is headquartered in Pennsylvania. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

If a data breach requires notification, we will notify affected individuals and appropriate authorities as required by applicable law, including Pennsylvania’s Breach of Personal Information Notification Act. Required notices will be provided without unreasonable delay or within any other applicable legal deadline.

This policy is governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to the extent permitted by applicable law. Nothing in this policy limits privacy rights or protections that apply under other laws.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, website features, or legal requirements. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. Where required by law, we will provide additional notice or obtain consent for material changes.
