BTW.. without sparking a flame war, and I have no idea how accurate the
information is, but it seems that 'single party consent' applies as
long as the recorded is not to be used for illegal purposes.<br>
<br>
This means only one party (in this case the business) need consent to
the recordings for them to be legal. I imagine the company therefore
gives itself approval to record all its calls, and thus, its all legal.
<br>
<br>
*shrug* IANAL, and I dont know how accurate the information is, since
it was a curiosity google search and comes from a company marketing
software to accomplish it.. .. but it seems fairly factual and similar
to my understanding of other jurisdictions laws<br>

<h1>Consent</h1>
<p>Generally, it is legal to record any conversation where all the
parties to it consent (one party consent if all parties are in a state
with corresponding law). The U.S. federal law only requires one-party
consent to the recording of a telephone conversation, but explicitly
does not protect the taping if it is done for a criminal or tortuous
purpose. Many states have similar exceptions.<br>

In the US I think this illegal? Aren't you supposed to have some sort
of notification or beeping to indicate a recorded call to the other
party?

Just a thought,
