On January 29th, U.S. Representative Frank Pallone (D-NJ) introduced the “Do Not Disturb Act,” a bill that would strengthen the FTC’s and FCC’s robocall enforcement regime.

Join our panel as we discuss the details of these proposals and how they can potentially impact your operations.

While many of us are familiar with the concept of 'Know Your Customer' (KYC), how many of us have established a robust procedure for evaluating our vendors? It's not just about choosing a vendor but ensuring they align with your organization's standards and regulations. For instance, when it comes to TCPA (Telephone Consumer Protection Act) regulations, have you clearly delineated roles and responsibilities? It's crucial to remember that outsourcing a function doesn't mean you're outsourcing accountability.

Join us for a thought-provoking and insightful webinar scheduled for August 24th at 10 AM PDT/1 PM EDT.

Since July, 2021 the Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (FTSA) has been the most dreaded of the state level Mini-TCPA statutes. The statute’s definition of autodialer is famously broad and its $500.00 per call minimum statutory penalties applied regardless of whether a business had an established business relationship with the consumer. The FTSA has lead to hundreds of lawsuits—most of them class actions—many arising out of text messages that would not have triggered the federal TCPA following the Supreme Court’s Facebook ruling. This meant that text messages were relatively safe to send at the federal level but very dangerous in state court. Well the Florida Legislature has just passed sweeping changes to the FTSA neutralizing some of its most dangerous provisions. In this critical free webinar we bring together a panel of great lawyers who handle FTSA cases regularly to discuss the impact of the new amendments and how it may change the shape of communication in Florida (and across the nation) moving forward.

Telemarketing Regulations and compliance seem to be heating up and spreading wide in 2023. Last year, the FTC and AG began addressing concerns about sharing and selling consent directly threatening the lead generation industry. Then, the FCC took its robocalling enforcement to the next level by shutting down a carrier that failed to comply with specific Stir/Shaken protocols. How do we make sense of and prioritize our compliance activity?

Enterprises today are suffering from all-time low answer rates as consumer trust in their cell phones is also at an all-time low.

Strategies being used to mitigate mislabeled spam tagging are becoming ineffective. Find out which call deliverability solution is right for your business.

In May 2022, Oklahoma Governor Kevin Stitt signed the Oklahoma Telephone Solicitation Act of 2022 (OTSA) into law. Much like the previous year’s Florida Telephone Solicitation Act (FTSA), it functions as a state-level, miniature version of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). It mimics the federal law’s enforcement mechanisms and penalties and, like the Florida law, centers on autodialer restrictions that are significantly broader than those found within the TCPA’s regulations. The law took effect on November 1, 2022. Join Arvell Craig and Oklahoma attorney Aaron Tiftt as we break down everything you need to know about Oklahoma's new Mini-TCPA.

A roundtable conversation around compliance and solar lead generation with experts in data and technology.
The (TCPA) world is on fire anew. After a brief respite, class action filings are increasing, FTC and FCC actions are increasing and the case law—particularly around ATDS—is suddenly moving in a powerfully unfavorable direction. Add in the massive changes caused by the speed-to-remote environment imposed by the COVID PLAGUE, and we have a perfect recipe for data breaches, fraudulent leads, and hyper-sensitive regulators shutting down marketing and collection calls across the nation.
It’s easier than ever for consumers to file TCPA complaints for unwanted calls – between growing awareness and apps that let them file complaints at the touch of the button, the risk of fines is too big to ignore any longer. When the Today Show started talking about the Robo Revenge app, our inboxes started filling up fast! Companies of all sizes that use online lead generation are rightfully worried about these peer-to-peer lawsuits. If you’re not worried about the risk of TCPA complaints eating away at your profits, you’re not paying attention.
