Disclaimer

Lead Compliance Hub is an educational resource written by an operator, for operators. It is not a law firm, and nothing on this site is legal advice. Here is exactly how to read it — and where its limits are.

Last updated: June 2026

Not legal advice, and not a substitute for it

Everything published here — articles, guides, the glossary, the landmine map, and the interactive tools — is general information about how the lead-generation compliance landscape works. It is not legal advice, it is not tax advice, and it is not a compliance opinion on your specific business, funnel, contracts, or marketing. Laws like the TCPA, the FTC's Telemarketing Sales Rule, state mini-TCPAs, and the data-broker statutes turn on the precise facts of a given situation. We do not know your facts, and this site cannot apply the law to them.

No attorney–client relationship

Reading this site, using a tool, subscribing to the newsletter, or contacting us does not create an attorney–client relationship. We are not your lawyers. If you need advice you can rely on — especially before launching a campaign, signing a buyer or vendor agreement, or responding to a demand letter or regulator — talk to qualified counsel licensed in your jurisdiction.

An operator's perspective

This project is written from the seat of someone who has built and run lead-generation programs for years — not from a law office. The value here is practical: how operators think about risk, the common ways funnels get into trouble, and the habits that keep you on solid ground. That perspective is useful, but it is a starting point for a conversation with your lawyer, not a replacement for one.

The rules change — fast

Lead-gen compliance is a moving target. Rules get written, vacated, repealed, and re-litigated; states pass their own statutes on different timelines; effective dates slip. We work hard to keep this site current and to cite primary sources, and we date our material so you can see how fresh it is. Even so, we cannot guarantee that everything here reflects the very latest state of the law on the day you read it. Always confirm an effective date or a current rule against the primary source before you rely on it.

The tools are aids, not audits

Our self-audit scorecard, data-broker check, consent-language checker, and deadline tracker are educational aids. They run simple, transparent logic against the inputs you give them to help you spot the obvious gaps and ask better questions. They do not review your actual program, they do not catch everything, and a clean result is not a clean bill of health. Nothing you enter is stored. Treat every output as a prompt to dig deeper with your own counsel, not as a compliance certification.

No warranty

This site is provided on an "as is" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We are not liable for any action you take — or decline to take — based on something you read here. You are responsible for your own compliance, and for getting advice that fits your situation.

The short version

We are operators sharing general best practices to help you navigate the landmines. We are not your lawyers, this is not legal advice, and you should confirm anything that matters with qualified counsel before you act on it. If that posture works for you, welcome — there is a lot here that will help.
