Users can select their prefrences in their own profile page and set the cellphone they would like to recieve messages on if sms is used.

WP2Step does not collect any login data or save any personal information from your users, they only recieve the pin and cell number along with your API key. API keys can be used on multiple sites and are not limited to a single domain or user and are perfect for a admin developer with multiple sites looking to protect their account.
