INTRODUCTION

The National Do Not Call Registry (Registry) provides consumers with an easy and

efficient way to register their preference not to receive most telemarketing sales calls.

The Registry has continued to grow since its inception in the summer of 2003. At the end

of Fiscal Year (FY) 2014 (October 1, 2013 – September 30, 2014), there were more than

217 million active registrations.1 Consumers can register their phone number(s) on the

Registry by either calling a toll-free number (888-382-1222) from the telephone number(s)

they wish to register or using the do-not-call website (https://www.donotcall.gov). The donot-call rules require telemarketers and sellers to remove the numbers on the Registry from

their call lists at least every 31 days. Telemarketers can access the Registry through a

website (https://telemarketing.donotcall.gov) dedicated to that purpose.

Consumers notify law enforcement of violations of the do-not-call rules by submitting

complaints to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) via either the toll-free number or the

website. Law enforcement officials can then review these complaints, as well as consumer

registration information and telemarketer access information, through the Consumer

Sentinel Network (CSN), a secure Internet website maintained by the FTC. For more

information about CSN, please visit www.FTC.gov/sentinel. Law enforcement personnel

may join CSN at https://register.consumersentinel.gov.

The National Do Not Call Registry Data Book contains statistical data regarding the

registrations on the Registry, the subscriptions of entities (e.g., telemarketers and sellers)

accessing phone numbers on the Registry, and the complaints consumers submit to the

FTC about companies allegedly violating the do-not-call rules.

The National Do Not Call Registry Data Book for Fiscal Year 2014 is based on unverified

complaints reported by consumers. This report is not based on a consumer survey.

1For the purposes of this report, “active registrations” are those registrations consumers have placed on the Registry and have not been

subsequently deleted by the consumer or removed by the FTC because the number was disconnected and reassigned. If a telemarketer

downloaded the Registry on the reported day, this is the number of registrations that would have appeared. Previously, the reported

number included every number a consumer had placed on the Registry regardless of its current deletion or re-registration status.

“5 or Fewer Area Codes”

includes those entities who accessed five or fewer area codes; the first five area codes are provided to entities at no cost. “Exempt

Entities” include organizations that engage in outbound telephone calls to consumers that do not involve the sale of goods or

services, such as calls to induce charitable contributions, to raise funds for political purposes, or to conduct surveys. “Exempt

Entities” also include those who are engaged solely in calls to persons with whom they have an established business relationship or

from whom they have obtained express written agreement to call and who do not access the Registry for any other purpose.
