⚠ Private Right of Action

Overview

Arizona has a Telephone Solicitation Act (A.R.S. § 44-1271) requiring telemarketer registration with the Secretary of State, a $25,000 surety bond, and compliance with the state DNC list. Arizona provides a private right of action for consumers, and the AG can pursue civil penalties up to $10,000 per violation. Registration is inexpensive ($25) but the bond and compliance requirements are real. The state DNC registration is permanent once filed.
