Enrichment, not certification.
Here's the actual line.
Short answer: TwoCentSkips returns data from legally licensed sources, but it is not a TCPA-safe filter and it's not FCRA-permissible. Here's what that means for how you use it.
What TwoCentSkips is
A consumer identity resolution / enrichment service. We match a phone, email, or name+address against licensed telco carrier data, a B2C consumer graph, auto-owner records, and public voter files — then return the household: name, address, phones, emails, DNC flag, and available demographics.
What it is not
Not a TCPA-compliance filter. Not an FCRA-permissible consumer report. Not a GDPR privacy shield. Not a certification of anything — it's the data, with a DNC flag on it, and it's on you to use it inside the rules for your use case.
A DNC flag is not a scrub
The Telephone Consumer Protection Act requires you to scrub your call/text list against the FTC National Do Not Call Registry (and your own internal suppression list) before a regulated campaign. Every phone record TwoCentSkips returns carries a boolean dnc field telling you if that number is on the registry — but flagging is not filtering. Loading a flagged number into your dialer and calling it anyway is still a violation.
TwoCentSkips does enrichment. It does not run the scrub. For the actual TCPA/DNC-safe filtering step — before you touch a dialer — use our sister product, which handles exactly that and nothing else.
Scrub your list at FreeDNCScrubNot FCRA-permissible
The Fair Credit Reporting Act governs consumer reports used for credit, employment, insurance, or tenant-screening decisions — and it requires specific disclosures and consumer-dispute processes we don't run. TwoCentSkips is a consumer identity resolution tool for skip trace, list hygiene, and marketing enrichment. It is not for credit, employment, or tenant-screening decisions. If you need FCRA-permissible data for one of those purposes, use a certified consumer reporting agency instead.
Good fit vs. bad fit
Same data, different use — one of these is fine, the other gets you a demand letter.
Good use cases
- Debt recovery — skip tracing for collections
- Marketing enrichment — appending household data before a campaign, DNC flags included
- Recruiting — building candidate sourcing and outreach lists
- Legal discovery — litigation support and asset location
- Verification — checking whether contact info on an existing customer record is current
Bad use cases
- Running a TCPA-regulated calling/texting campaign without a real scrub
- Reselling enriched data to a third party without consent
- Credit, employment, or tenant-screening decisions — FCRA-regulated purposes
- Building a training dataset out of lookup results
- Locating someone for stalking, harassment, or any purpose they haven't agreed to
Pre-campaign checklist
This is a working checklist, not legal advice. When in doubt, loop in counsel — every state layers its own rules (CCPA in California, CPA in Colorado, VCDPA in Virginia, and others) on top of federal TCPA/FCRA.
Where the data comes from
Four licensed sources, stitched by household: telco carrier data (refreshed roughly every 31 days), a B2C consumer graph (60–90 days), auto-owner records, and public voter files (both quarterly). We don't scrape social networks, and every record traces back to a source.
Those are hit rates, not accuracy scores — a miss (no match) is always free, so a lower hit rate on a given input type costs you nothing extra.
