Text Message Terms and Conditions

These American National Text Message Terms and Conditions constitute an agreement (“Agreement”) between American National Insurance Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries (each a “Company,” and collectively, “American National”) and participants in the text message program (the “Program”). The words “you” and “your” refer to each person who enrolls in the Program, and each person who acts on behalf of or with the permission of the enrollee. Please read this Agreement carefully.

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
By opting in to the Program, you expressly consent to receive text messages relating to your policy or claim from American National at the mobile telephone number you provide in accordance with these terms and conditions, even if such number appears on a Do Not Call List. You acknowledge and agree that American National may use an automatic telephone dialing system (“auto-dialer”) to deliver American National text messages to you. You understand that text messages will not be sent in lieu of required written notices. Your participation in the Program is optional and NOT a condition of purchasing any product or service from American National. You may opt-out of these text messages at any time. If you have any questions about the Program, please contact customer service at claims@americannational.com or (800) 333-2860.

COST
Message and data rates may apply to each text message sent or received in connection with the Program in addition to any applicable roaming charges (please contact your mobile telephone carrier for pricing plans). American National does not impose a separate fee for text messages.

UNGUARANTEED ACCESS OR DELIVERY TO MOBILE TELEPHONE NETWORK
American National does not guarantee continuous, uninterrupted or secure mobile telephone network services. American National cannot guarantee that text messages provided through your mobile telephone carrier will be delivered to you. You understand that delivery of information and content to a mobile device may fail due to a variety of circumstances or conditions, and you acknowledge that American National is not responsible for any delayed or undelivered text messages.

SECURITY OF TEXT MESSAGES
American National does not guarantee that text messages will not be misappropriated, intercepted, diverted, lost, accessed, disclosed, or used by others. You acknowledge that American National text messages, and the transmission of such text messages, are not encrypted. You acknowledge that American National text messages may include information about your policy or claim. You understand and agree that the sending and receiving of information through text messages provides opportunity for unauthorized access by a third party. Text messages may be displayed when your mobile device is “locked,” and you are responsible for ensuring such text messages are not viewable by third parties. For these reasons, American National will not include full policy numbers, full claim numbers, or passwords in a text message.

You agree that your participation in the Program is at your sole risk. You further agree that American National is not responsible for loss or damage of any sort that could arise out of the interception or misuse of text messages by third parties. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you authorize American National to monitor and record all text messages sent or received in connection with the Program. American National will retain and dispose of such text messages in accordance with our data retention policy.
