Consent requirements in Nevada

Under Nevada law it is illegal to secretly record an oral communication without the consent of at least one party. The Nevada Supreme Court has held that all parties must consent to the recording of a telephonic conversation. Illegal recording is a felony and carries the potential of civil damages as well.

Best practices for compliant recording

• Play a clear consent message at the start of every recorded call.
• Document consent capture in your CRM record.
• Retain recordings only for the period required by regulation or policy.
• Restrict access to recordings to authorised personnel.
