If someone on the Do Not Call (DNC) List contacts you, how long can you continue calling them?

In the context of the Do Not Call (DNC) regulations, if an individual on the DNC List contacts you, you are allowed to follow up with them for a period of 3 months. This rule exists because when a consumer initiates communication with a business, they effectively provide consent for further engagement, but that consent is time-limited to maintain consumer privacy and respect their preferences.

It's important to note that after these 3 months, you would need to cease calling them unless they have provided explicit permission to continue, or if their status on the DNC list has changed. Understanding the specifics of the DNC regulations, including this temporary consent rule, helps ensure compliance and fosters positive customer relationships.
