A new qualifying interaction is required to re-establish the exemption.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A website visit, email open, customer-service contact, or other routine interaction does not automatically create or renew an EBR. The business should be able to identify the specific qualifying event.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The EBR belongs to the specific seller with whom the consumer transacted or inquired. <strong>It does not extend to corporate parents, subsidiaries, or affiliates <\/strong>unless they are the entity that conducted the original interaction.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"what-types-of-interactions-create-an-ebr\">State requirements may impose different definitions, time limits, or restrictions.

It permits live-agent telemarketing calls to DNC-listed numbers, but only within the applicable window and only where state law allows. It does not cover autodialed calls, prerecorded messages, or texts.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Consumer consent<\/strong>, particularly prior express written consent, is broader. It can authorize calls and texts using ATDS or prerecorded messages, applies to wireless and residential numbers, and remains valid until the consumer revokes it.

Specifically, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and Federal Communications Commission (FCC) permit businesses to contact individuals listed on the National DNC Registry if they have an EBR. However, this exemption is limited by specific criteria, including the type of interaction and the time elapsed since the last contact.\u00a0\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"What Types of Interactions Create an EBR?\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"An EBR can be established through various interactions that indicate a direct relationship between the business and the consumer. These interactions fall into two main categories:\u00a0\\n\\nTransactional Relationships: Any purchase, lease, or financial transaction creates an EBR. For example, if a customer has made a purchase from your company, you may contact them for up to 18 months after the transaction, even if they are on the DNC list.\u00a0\\n\\nInquiries or Applications: If a customer has inquired about your products or services or submitted an application (e.g., for a membership or a service), an EBR is established for up to three months from the date of the inquiry.\"}},{\"@type\":\"Question\",\"name\":\"The Difference Between EBR and Customer Consent\u00a0\",\"acceptedAnswer\":{\"@type\":\"Answer\",\"text\":\"Although an EBR allows businesses to bypass DNC restrictions temporarily, it is different from customer consent. EBRs are established based on previous interactions, while consent refers to the explicit permission given by the consumer to be contacted, regardless of prior transactions.\u00a0\u00a0\\n\\nConsent is typically more comprehensive and can remain valid beyond the timeframes associated with EBRs, making it crucial for businesses to prioritize obtaining clear, documented consent wherever possible.\u00a0\\n\\nWhile an EBR offers some leeway, relying on it without a robust consent strategy can be risky.
