legal_messaging
When a commercial email, SMS, or call may lawfully be sent, by channel and jurisdiction. The field that matters is consent_model: the US is opt-out for email, Canada and the EU are opt-in, and Germany applies opt-in to B2B while France and the Netherlands do not. Applying the US model abroad is a breach. Includes opt-out deadlines, permitted calling hours, whether a private right of action exists (the difference between a regulator fine and a class action), and the FCC one-to-one consent rule vacated a day before it took effect. Free — this call costs nothing. No account or payment required.
Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| limit | No | ||
| search | No | Free-text over summary, instrument and detail. | |
| status | No | Filter to one lifecycle state. | |
| dead_only | No | Return only rules that are NOT live law — vacated, superseded, or still proposed. These are the rules most often wrongly believed to be in force. | |
| jurisdiction | No | Substring match, e.g. "EU", "UK", "US-federal", "California", "Germany". | |
| verified_only | No | Only rows whose source URL resolved when last checked. Off by default: many primary sources (courts, national gazettes) block automated checkers, so "blocked" is not "bad". |
