Section 13:45D-4.2 - Exempt telemarketing sales calls

(a) Telemarketers may make the following telemarketing sales calls even if the customer is on the no telemarketing call list unless the customer has requested not to receive telemarketing sales calls under 13:45D-3.9:

1. Calls made to an existing customer; or

2. Calls made to an existing customer to whom a seller's sole obligation is the extension of credit which are made within 18 months of the date of the customer's last credit transaction or until the satisfaction of the credit obligation, whichever is later.

(b) Telemarketers may make telemarketing sales calls to customer numbers on the no telemarketing call list with the express agreement of the customer. Any requests for a customer's permission to make a telemarketing sales call shall be made in a clear and conspicuous manner in which the customer provides affirmative consent. A pre-checked box or other form of consent that has been completed by any person other than the customer shall not be deemed to be affirmative consent. The telemarketer shall first obtain the customer's express agreement in writing which includes the number to which telemarketing sales calls may be made and the customer's signature. If this agreement is reached online, the signature of the customer may be an electronic signature.
