\n\n\t\tWhat does “TCPA” stand for?\n\t<\/h1>\n\t
“TCPA” stands for the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), a piece of federal legislation that requires prior express written consent for texts or calls made to mobile phones using auto-dialers or pre-recorded messages.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t Protect your company by learning about and following TCPA best practices.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead TCPA eBook\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n If you’re one of the thousands of companies that use telemarketing or telesales as part of your outbound lead generation strategy, you simply can’t afford to get caught in a TCPA violation. Failing to meet TCPA compliance standards can cost you in both legal fees and your brand’s reputation — litigation is on the rise.<\/p>\n You see, TCPA violations represent easy money for people ranging from angry consumers to class action litigators. Multi-million dollar settlements are common. To make matters worse, suits can be filed for perceived violations up to 4 years after the date of contact.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t ActiveProspect is a tremendous partner. I sleep better at night knowing TrustedForm is powering the front end of our business from a compliance standpoint.<\/p> We wanted to have really good compliance on our various websites so that when customers enter their information we have a record of that consent. TrustedForm is a great product for us for that purpose.<\/p> We drive a decent amount of TCPA leads to a lot of different buyers and we were looking for a way to provide peace of mind for them that everything was collected compliantly. TrustedForm has helped us give our buyers that peace of mind.<\/p> We’ve had to use it a few times — not due to complaints but due to spot checks from very large carriers. We’ve been able to provide proof that we’re operating compliantly and doing everything right. TrustedForm has helped strengthen our relationships with our carrier partners. <\/p> It’s not all bad news! There are TCPA compliance software solutions available to help you protect your company from litigation.<\/p>\n Make sure you’re investing in the right one, though. Compliance is multifaceted, so your solution needs to be, too.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t Identify fraudulent site visitors so you can block those leads.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t Verify that lead form language meets clear and conspicuous guidelines to avoid potential TCPA litigation.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t Check phone numbers against lists of known TCPA litigators.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t Verify whether the number and name match before you call.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s not enough to just collect express written consent. Businesses must be able to verify and document proof of consent to avoid potential TCPA litigation. Our product, TrustedForm, is the highest standard for independent proof of TCPA consent.<\/p>\n You can receive leads that look compliant (with proof of consent and lead matching) but are still potential TCPA land mines. If a bot submits a lead, the person you’re calling never gave consent. Fraud detection services such as Anura<\/a> identify fraudulent site visitors so you can block those leads before they enter your system.<\/p>\n Is this a genuine lead or are you about to call a serial TCPA litigator?<\/em><\/p>\n TCPA regulation has led to the rise of professional TCPA plaintiffs who rely on marketers settling rather than fighting the lawsuit — often because the companies lack good documentation for consent. Check phone numbers against lists of known TCPA litigators before calling.<\/p>\n Recommended service: Contact Center Compliance <\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Use your choice of best-in-class services to create the ideal custom lead flow for your needs, all while following TCPA compliance guidelines.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tLearn More\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n TCPA compliance refers to the practice of seeking consumers’ prior express written consent before reaching out to them with offers about products and services.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWhat is required for TCPA compliance?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t The list of things that are required for TCPA compliance is rather long. Here you can find a comprehensive checklist<\/a> that will help you guarantee TCPA compliance.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\tWhat are the violations for non compliance with the TCPA?<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tExpand<\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t Calling or texting a consumer without having acquired their prior express written consent to be contacted is a violation of the TCPA. Violating the TCPA can have serious financial consequences. You could face fines ranging from $500 to $1,500 per violation. Moreover, the TCPA comes with a four-year statute of limitations. This means that any presumed non-compliant call can be used against you in legal proceedings for up to four years after it was made. And that’s not all! The TCPA even allows for class actions, which means that a single call could lead to a massive class involving millions of consumers who received similar calls.<\/p>\n![\"What](\"https:\/\/activeprospect.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/1_TCPA_Compliance.png\" "\\"1_TCPA_Compliance\\"")
