You may always discontinue use of the Software at any time; however, such a choice may have implications, such as preventing your access to certain facilities or use of a vehicle.
Text Messaging.

Such messaging may be used to authenticate your identity or mobile device, as well as provide you informational updates about services or products you may have requested.
