Introduction
Energy Gas Deals, a brand operated by Apexom Inc. (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), is an independent utility consulting for leading energy and gas providers across the United States. Our business operates primarily through inbound call interactions where customers receive assistance comparing electricity and gas service options and selecting energy plans.
This TCPA Policy describes our commitment to complying with the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227), its implementing regulations, and applicable state telemarketing laws. These laws govern telephone solicitations, automated calls, prerecorded messages, and text communications. Even though our operations are primarily inbound-focused, TCPA compliance remains essential for all communications.
Scope of This Policy
This policy applies to all telephone communications — including voice calls and text messages — made by or on behalf of Best Internet Bundle, whether initiated by the Company or conducted in response to customer contact.
This includes:
- Inbound customer calls
- Follow-up communications related to customer inquiries
- Any outbound calls or text messages made for marketing, informational, or service-related purposes
Key TCPA Compliance Principles
Prior Express Consent
We do not place telemarketing calls or send marketing texts using an ATDS, artificial voice, or prerecorded voice without legally required prior express written consent.
One-to-One Consent (Effective Jan 27, 2025)
Where automated marketing technology is used, consent must specifically authorize Best Internet Bundle or clearly identify each seller authorized to contact the consumer.
Do Not Call (DNC) Compliance
- We maintain an internal DNC list
- DNC requests are honored promptly and permanently
- Calling lists are scrubbed against the National DNC Registry at least every 31 days
- Applicable state DNC rules are followed
Permissible Calling Hours
Telemarketing calls are placed only between 8:00 a.m. and 9:00 p.m. local time.
Clear Identification
Calls clearly identify:
- The representative’s name
- The company (Best Internet Bundle)
- A valid contact number or address
Opt-Out and Revocation
Consumers may revoke consent at any time via verbal request or standard opt-out keywords. Requests are processed within 10 business days. A single non-marketing confirmation may be sent.
Inbound Inquiry Follow-Ups
An inbound call does not automatically permit automated marketing follow-ups. Required consent must be obtained first.
Abandoned Call Prevention
We follow FCC abandoned call rules and ensure agent availability.
Caller ID Transparency
Accurate caller ID information is transmitted.
Business Model Considerations
Our model is inbound-focused. Customers initiate contact for service assistance. Any future callback features would include compliant opt-in disclosures and consent language.
Representatives receive TCPA training covering:
- Proper identification
- DNC handling
- Inbound vs outbound rules
- Lawful service information sharing
- Proper consent collection
Calls may be recorded, and callers are notified at call start.
We do not initiate unsolicited outbound marketing without proper prior consent.
Data Retention and Recordkeeping
We maintain TCPA compliance records, including:
- Internal DNC list records
- Proof of consent documentation
- Agent training materials
- Consumer communication complaints
Records are securely stored for compliance and audit purposes.
Enforcement and Penalties
TCPA violations can result in penalties of $500 per violation and up to $1,500 per willful violation, potentially including class-action exposure. We mitigate risk through strict compliance, training, and monitoring.
Policy Review and Updates
This TCPA Policy is reviewed periodically and updated to reflect legal, regulatory, and operational changes.
