IMPORTANT: Intended Use Only

CallScribe is designed ONLY for managing your own incoming phone calls. You may NOT use this service to:

  • Monitor, spy on, or secretly record another person's phone calls
  • Track or surveil someone without their knowledge and consent
  • Record calls you are not a party to

  • Reverse engineer or copy our technology
  • Share your account with others
  • Exceed fair-use limits (see Section 6.1 below)

6.1 Fair-Use Policy

While we offer "unlimited" personal calls, this is subject to fair-use policy to prevent abuse:

  • Service is for personal use only, not commercial call center operations
  • Excessive usage that significantly exceeds normal personal use may be flagged
  • We reserve the right to suspend accounts with abnormal usage patterns
  • Typical personal use: up to 100 calls per month is considered normal

7. Call Recording and Legal Compliance

⚠️ YOUR LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY

Call recording laws vary by state and country. You are solely responsible for ensuring your use of CallScribe complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.

By using CallScribe, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • Automatic Recording: CallScribe will record all calls forwarded to the service
  • Your Legal Responsibility: You are solely responsible for complying with federal, state, and local call recording and wiretapping laws
  • Consent Requirement: In many jurisdictions, you must obtain consent from all parties before recording. You are responsible for obtaining this consent.
  • Default Greeting: CallScribe provides a standard greeting informing callers they are speaking with an AI assistant and that the call may be recorded
  • Custom Greeting: If you customize the greeting, you must ensure it adequately notifies callers of recording
  • One-Party vs. Two-Party States: Some states require all parties to consent (two-party consent), while others require only one party (you) to consent. Know your local laws.

Examples of recording laws: California, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Montana, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington require two-party consent. Other states generally require one-party consent. This is not legal advice - consult a lawyer if unsure.

  • Uninterrupted or error-free service
  • 100% accuracy of AI transcriptions or summaries
