Recent FCC TCPA compliance changes
January 2024:
- Do Not Call (DNC) protections are extended to text messages.
- One-to-one consentrequirements redefine prior express written consent (PEWC) to mean an agreement that "clearly and conspicuously" authorizes one identified seller at a time (lead buyer) to contact a consumer.
- Calls must be "logically and topically" associated with the website interaction that prompted the consent.
- Both lead buyers and lead sellers are required to maintain documentation of consent to call. Buyers cannot rely on documentation held by the sellers.
February 2024:
- Consumers can revoke consentat any time by using "any reasonable means" (call, text, email, postal mail, etc.)
- Companies must honor DNC and revocation-of-consent requests as soon as practicable, and within no more than 10 business days after receipt of the request.
August 2024 (NPRM):
- The TCPA now applies to AI generated voice in callsAI generated voice in calls
Notes:
- Prior express written consent may be obtained for more than one seller on a single disclosure form, as long as the consumer provides affirmative consent to be contacted by each individual seller listed on the form, on a one-to-one basis.
- In the TCPA, the use of the word "'seller"' is inconsistent with our definition (and the industry's definition). We use "'seller"' to refer to the entity selling the lead; TCPA uses the word "'seller"' in reference to the entity calling the end prospect.
