- At 4:00 PM ET, calling a consumer whose number is on the National DNC Registry, because the agency received the consumer's signed, express written consent to receive telemarketing calls last week.Cevap
Cevap
The permissible calls are the 6:30 PM ET call to the former client in Mountain Time and the 4:00 PM ET call to the consumer who provided express written consent.
The correct selections are permissible because they adhere to both the temporal and relationship-based exceptions of the TCPA. The call to the former client in Mountain Time is made at 4:30 PM local time, well within the 8:00 AM to 9:00 PM window, and falls within the 18-month Established Business Relationship (EBR) exception. The call to the consumer who provided express written consent is also fully compliant, as valid written consent directly overrides the National DNC Registry restrictions.
