Connecticut has enacted commercial-financing disclosure requirements: Public Act 23-201 — commercial financing disclosure (effective 2024).. Funders and brokers originating commercial financing into CT must provide APR-equivalent and fee disclosures before consummation — confirm current regulatory text before deploying your disclosure script.
Compliance posture: records are scrubbed against the National Do Not Call (DNC) Registry where applicable, and we provide DNC-cleaned files on request. TCPA compliance for outbound contact ultimately rests with the calling party — your firm's consent posture, dialer configuration, time-of-day rules, and disclosure scripts are what make a campaign compliant. We supply the data layer; your compliance team controls the call layer. Two-party recording-consent states (CA, FL, IL, MD, MA, MT, NH, PA, WA) require explicit caller-side disclosure before any call recording.
Mobile-confirmation methodology: a subset of records passes through a carrier-lookup validation layer that sends an SMS verification request (anonymized, non-marketing) or uses carrier lookup APIs to confirm the number resolves to a mobile (wireless) rather than a landline or VoIP line. Mobile-confirmed records are flagged mobile_confirmed: true in the schema. This process runs nightly on all records in the active database as carrier assignments for phone numbers change over time (e.g., when a business owner ports a number from a desk phone to a mobile plan).
