TCPA compliance refers to following the rules set by the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, a U.S. federal law that restricts how businesses can contact consumers by phone, text, or fax.

The law governs consent requirements, calling hours, do-not-call lists, and the use of automated dialing systems. Violations carry fines of $500 to $1,500 per call or message.

For teams running call tracking or outbound campaigns, TCPA compliance shapes which numbers can be contacted, how consent is documented, and how call recordings are disclosed to callers.

Call tracking platforms must handle recorded conversations, stored transcripts, and consumer data in ways that align with TCPA rules. That includes proper consent language on landing pages, clear disclosures before recording begins, and controls over how contact data is stored or shared.

Convirza, drawing on 25 years of proprietary call data, builds recording disclosures and consent controls directly into call flows, so compliance requirements are handled at the infrastructure level rather than patched on afterward.
