SMS alerts are available only to authorized recipients approved through OKWX Monitor’s controlled access process.
This page explains how authorized recipients may receive SMS alerts from OKWX Monitor, how consent is captured, and how SMS activation is completed. This is not a public self-registration service.
How Access Begins
Access begins when an authorized administrator or staff member adds or approves a recipient in the system before SMS activation is offered.
What Happens After Approval
Once approved, the recipient is sent a secure invitation or secure preference-management link. That secure link is used to review disclosures, capture consent, verify the phone number, and enable SMS alert delivery.
