By using our services or interacting with messages we send, you agree to these Terms.

1. What we do

Orange County Automation builds and operates automated communication workflows for local home-services businesses (plumbing, HVAC, contractors, and similar trades) in Orange County, New York, and the surrounding area. Our workflows handle lead acknowledgment, missed-call text-back, appointment reminders, and triaged replies to inbound messages on behalf of those businesses.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction, to use our services or receive messages from us. By submitting a contact form, calling, or texting a number we operate, you represent that you meet this requirement.

3. SMS and email communications

By submitting a contact form with the SMS-consent checkbox enabled, by calling a number we operate, or by texting a number we operate, you consent to receive automated SMS and email messages directly related to your inquiry from us or from the business that received your inquiry. Consent is not a condition of purchase. Message frequency is event-driven, typically 1–3 messages per interaction. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out, or HELP for help.
