Ready Reply Systems is a sole proprietorship owned by Jacob Cannon and based in Glen Allen, Virginia. We provide customer communication services to heating and air conditioning companies, including missed-call text-back, online booking, after-hours lead capture, estimate follow-up text messages, and review requests.
When we send messages on behalf of a heating and air conditioning business we serve, we act as a service provider to that business. That business may also have its own privacy policy that applies to your relationship with it.

4. Text messaging
If you provide your mobile phone number and agree to receive text messages, you may receive messages from Ready Reply Systems or from a heating and air conditioning business we serve about appointments, service updates, replies to your inquiries, follow-ups, and review requests. Message frequency varies. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out at any time, or reply HELP for help. For full details, see our Text Messaging Terms.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.
Service providers that help us deliver text messages (such as our messaging platform and phone carriers) may process this information only as needed to deliver messages and provide the service.
5. How we share information
We share information only as described below:
- With the business you contacted. If you called, texted, or booked with a heating and air conditioning business that uses our services, your information and messages are shared with that business so it can respond to you and provide service.
- With service providers. We use trusted providers for text messaging and phone services, scheduling, email, and website hosting. They may process information only to provide services to us and are not permitted to use it for their own marketing.
- For legal reasons. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or court order, or when needed to protect the rights, property, or safety of our customers, the public, or Ready Reply Systems.
All of the categories above exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent. This information will not be shared with any third parties.
6. How long we keep information
We keep personal information only as long as needed to provide our services, keep accurate business records, resolve disputes, and meet legal and phone carrier requirements. We keep records of text messaging consent and opt-out requests for as long as needed to honor your choices and show compliance. When information is no longer needed, we delete it or remove details that identify you.
7. How we protect information
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect personal information, and we limit access to people and providers who need it to provide our services. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your choices and rights

- Get help: Reply HELP to any text message, or email us.
- Access, correct, or delete: You may ask to see the personal information we have about you, to correct it, or to delete it by emailing jacob@readyreplysystems.com. We may need to verify your identity before completing your request.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional privacy rights under state law, such as Virginia law. We will respond to requests as required by applicable law. We will not treat you differently for exercising your privacy rights.
