30874: Verification rejection - Disallowed: SHAFT - Hate

Twilio Messaging DocumentationMessaging

Description

description page anchor

Twilio rejected your verification request because the submission indicates a forbidden SHAFT category related to hate. The verification review considers your business, use case, sample messages, web presence, opt-in flow, and related terms and privacy disclosures.

Possible causes

possible-causes page anchor
  • Your submission describes a business or messaging program associated with hate speech, abusive communications, or communications connected to a hate group.
  • Your website, sample messages, opt-in flow, or supporting business information suggests a hate-related use case during the verification review.
  • Your messaging use case falls into a forbidden message category for SMS and MMS in the United States or Canada.
  • Stop using this phone number for any hate-related or otherwise forbidden messaging. If your use case falls into a forbidden category, it isn't eligible for approval.
  • Review your verification submission and remove any business description, website content, sample message, or consent flow that could make the use case appear to support hate-related communications. Make sure your submission accurately reflects a compliant messaging program.
  • If you believe this rejection is incorrect and your business doesn't fit a forbidden category, contact Twilio Support and provide additional information that clearly explains your use case.
  • Do not resubmit the same request without correcting the underlying compliance issue. Rejections for content or Messaging Policy violations are ineligible for resubmission.
