Frequently Asked Questions

General

What is a certicall?

In short, a certicall is a certified telephone call between two or more parties. A certicall is placed by calling an access number and connecting to other parties through CertiCall’s secure platform. The CertiCall platform gives the initiator control over the recording and a variety of additional features. A certicall is distinguished from a regular phone call in a number of ways:
  • All parties mutually consent to the digital recording of the phone call.
  • The recording is date and time stamped, securely archived and accessible by the participants.
  • The identities of the parties may be verified.
  • Certicalls are compliant with the electronic signature laws, and may be as enforceable as written agreements.

What can I use CertiCall for?

CertiCall can record phone conversations, be used to confirm agreements and understandings, help a company with order processing, address and certify compliance issues, record personal memos, dictation, meetings and more. CertiCall provides you with an easy to use set of phone and web tools that enable you to record, retrieve, share, transcribe and certify important phone conversations. You can access these recordings anytime from any phone, on our website, or download the recordings directly to you computer. For a more complete listing, see Features and benefits.

Is any special software or hardware necessary?

All you need is a CertiCall account. There’s nothing to download and no special equipment is required. You can place a certicall from any mobile or landline phone, or even via Skype or other VoIP services.

Do I need an account to make a certicall?

Yes. Your account provides you with the ability to make certicalls and manage them online, including convenient user features like sharing and transcription. Membership in CertiCall also has its benefits such as receiving automatic links to any certicall made with another member, subscription discounts, and a variety of value added features. The recipient of the call does not have to have a CertiCall account.

How long are my recordings accessible online?

CertiCall retains online recording for a period of one year. By pre-arrangement, CertiCall will store recordings for a longer retention period. Additional storage charges may apply.

Using CertiCall

Can I make a certicall using any phone?

Yes, a certicall can be placed from a landline, mobile phone or VoIP service. We encourage members to make their mobile phone their primary phone number because your mobile phone provides the greatest level of personalization, immediacy and security. If you call from any phone other than your primary phone, you will be prompted to enter your primary phone number as part of the authentication process, followed by your PIN. However, if you call from your primary number, we will recognize you by that number and only prompt you for your PIN. If you have another phone that you frequently use to make certicalls, you should add that phone number to your account in order to shorten the authentication process.

How do I access my recordings?

As a member: You can play back your recording on our website, download the audio file to your computer, or access it by phone. Playback on the web : recording is stored as an MP3 audio file on our secure server. When you complete a CertiCall, you will receive an email notification with a direct link to your call. You can play the recording, or any recorded segment, right there on the web page using our built-in audio player. Or you can download the recording to your computer as an MP3 file and play it with any application supporting this popular format (for example Media Player on Windows, Quicktime on Mac, or iTunes on both). Playback by phone: You can also play back any recording by phone by calling the CertiCall access number. Use option #5 on the main menu and enter your reference number to retrieve your call. As a non-member: At the conclusion of a certicall, non members are offered access to the recording they participated in. If you chose this option, please check your mobile phone to see if you received a text message providing you with instructions and access credentials. You can also ask the initiator of the call to share a copy of the call with you, or we provide a website tool that will give you access from our website to your certicall provided you can give us specific information. To use this tool, please click here. If this doesn’t work for you, call customer service at 1-800-CERTICALL (1-800-237-8422). Of course, the easiest way to have access to all future certicalls is to become a member!

Is there a limit on call duration?

There is no limit on call duration, however during the free trial period time restrictions may apply. For customized business applications, CertiCall can implement call duration limits as needed.

What number will appear on the recipient’s caller ID?

In most cases, the caller’s regular calling number will appear. CertiCall does not spoof the caller ID. What the recipient sees on their caller ID is influenced primarily by the telecommunications carriers.

Legal

Is it legal to record a telephone call?

Legal and regulatory requirements governing recording of telephone conversations depends on specific state laws, and some states allow only one party’s consent, while other states require that all parties consent. – But consent really isn’t an issue at all when you use CertiCall. As a matter of standard business procedure, CertiCall asks all parties for affirmative consent before a recording is initiated. This protects you from inadvertently violating any state or federal legal requirement. CertiCall sets the standard—not only for capturing consent, but for reliability, ID verification, accountability, retention periods and other compliance in recording applicable phone conversations. Federal law requires only one person’s consent to record a call; however certain states require multi-party consent (all parties on the call). There are 12 states that require that all parties to a conversation consent to being recorded. They are: California, Connecticut, Florida, Illinois, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, and Washington.

Can a CertiCall be legally binding?

Yes. The patented CertiCall system is designed to comply with electronic signature laws, domestically and internationally. Information exchanged and understandings reached via CertiCall are readily documented and will constitute reliable evidence informing and documenting the intentions and commitments of parties. In most instances if parties intended to reach an agreement via CertiCall it will be as enforceable as a written and signed agreement documented on paper. What constitutes an “agreement” is based primarily on the intent of the parties and the laws and statutes of various jurisdictions related to contract and commercial law. A certified phone call falls under the category of an “electronic transaction” and as such, meets the criteria set forth by the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act (E-SIGN) and the Uniform Electronic Transaction Act (UETA), which has been adopted by nearly all states. Because Call Recordings are electronic records, e-transaction laws make clear that a valid contract can be created using a Call Recording. E-SIGN states that “a contract . . . may not be denied legal effect, validity, or enforceability solely because an electronic signature or electronic record was used in its formation”. Likewise, UETA specifically states, “A contract may not be denied legal effect or enforceability solely because an electronic record was used in its formation.” Our certified phone call methodology meets statutory requirements for capturing and providing access to electronic transactions and electronic signatures, and can support formation of legally binding agreements. We confirm consent and integrate other features in order to provide the highest degree of reliability and enforceability. We cannot guarantee or warrant, however, that each and every transaction conducted using our service will have legal effect and be enforceable in all jurisdictions in which the transaction is conducted. Because circumstances vary, we suggest you consult with an attorney to determine whether your intended use of a certified phone call recording will satisfy applicable legal and regulatory requirements in your state, for your intended use.

User Profile, Security and Privacy

Are my recordings secure?

Yes. We take great care to protect your recording from both unauthorized access and from tampering by authorized users. All recordings are stored on our servers at our secure data center, behind our firewall. Access via the website is strictly limited to authenticated users with the correct permissions – there is no direct HTTP access to a recording. In addition, a secure digital signature (a “hash”) is created and stored separately for each audio file. This allows us to verify at any time the authenticity of a recording – in other words, if someone tries to tamper with a copy of a recording you have distributed, this can easily be detected.

Can anyone other than me listen to my phone calls?

Only you or any authorized participant to the call have access to that call unless you or that party shares the call with someone else.

How do I change my password or PIN?

You can change your website password or your phone PIN by logging into our secure site. Simply click on the “Profile” and then click the “Security” tab. You can then enter a new password or PIN, and click “Save Changes”. If you have forgotten your password, you can request a reset by clicking the “I forgot my password” link on the Sign In page and follow the instructions. While you’re at it, we also highly recommend that you choose a security question and enter an answer only you know. This will make the process of resetting your password more secure.

I got a new phone number, what should I do?

Log In to your online account and go to the “Profile” tab. Then click on the “Phones” tab and enter your new number. Delete any numbers no longer in use.

What is identity verification and why should I use it?

Identity verification is a simple process of answering a few questions that only you should be able to answer correctly. These questions are based on publicly available records, similar to those that many credit score institutions use. Once your identity has been verified through our secure process, our system designates you as being an “ID verified” or “authenticated” member of CertiCall. While this step is not mandatory, it is strongly suggested that you complete it. As a trusted third part intermediary, CertiCall establishes a high level of confidence among phone call participants that verified parties are who they claim to be. This reduces the risks of dealing with unknown parties, and increases the utility of dealing with members of the CertiCall network. By verifying the identity of all call participants, we also strengthen the enforceability of your verbal agreements and understandings and take precautions to meet the basic requirements of state and federal electronic signature laws.

Troubleshooting

I did not receive an email I expected, what do I do?

If you expected an email from CertiCall but did not receive it, please check your spam or junk mail folder. All our emails are sent from the email address “noreply@certicall.com”. You may want to add this address to your contact list or friendly senders list in order to prevent certain email providers to regard them as junk. If you still cannot find emails sent from us, please contact support.

I tried to sign on too many times and got locked out. What should I do?

Hey, this happens from time to time, don’t worry. But for security reasons, we ask that you call 1-800-CERTICALL (1-800-237-8422) to gain re-entry into your acct.

General Terms of Service – CertiCall

The following terms of service (“TOS”) shall govern any understanding between CertiCall LLC (“Service Provider” or “we” or “us”) and a subscriber (“Client” or “You”) pursuant to any legal agreement (“Subscriber Agreement”) entered into between you and us with respect to our providing certain certified phone call and personal recording services (“Service”) to you. “Client” or “You” refers to the individual who registered with us and/or provided us his or her credit card or other payment mechanism for the Service, or, if an individual is purchasing the Service on behalf of an entity authorized to purchase the Service on behalf of such entity, then “You” refers to such entity, or if you are a participant to a Certicall who has not registered. If any part of these TOS is held invalid or unenforceable, that portion shall be construed in a manner consistent with applicable law to reflect, as nearly as possible, the original intentions of the parties, and the remaining portions shall remain in full force and effect. The failure of Service Provider to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these TOS shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in these TOS, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to any Subscriber Agreement. Nothing in these TOS shall be construed to convey to you any interest, title, or license in a username created by you in the course of registration and use of our Services. These TOS are provided for informational purposes only until such time as they are incorporated by reference into any Subscriber Agreement entered into between you and us. Service Provider reserves the right to modify these TOS anytime at its sole discretion.

Subscriber Agreement – Statement of Services

You may access our Service, which is more fully detailed on our website, on a non-exclusive basis by initially registering certain unique identification and financial information with us, thus creating a Subscriber Account. You agree to these TOS by creating such a Subscriber Account and using our Service and by clicking a box, where such a box is made available to you, upon registration that indicates you agree to these TOS. You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age and legally competent to agree to these TOS. You may use the Service only while you are a Client in good standing who subscribes to the Service, a registered participant in a free trial of the Service, or a non registered participant to a Certicall. Unless otherwise specified by us or by another express agreement with us to the contrary, your right to access or use the Service terminates on the earlier of (a) the date which is the last day of the billing cycle for which the last Service prepayment for the Account has been received by us, or (b) the date on which any charge or fee, or other balance due under the Account, is past due and we determine, in our discretion, to terminate the Account or suspend the Service, or (c) any other date upon which we have the right to terminate the Account or suspend the Service as provided in any Subscriber Agreement or any other applicable agreement or policy.

Changes to Terms of Service

We reserve the right to modify or change these TOS at any time at our discretion and recommend that you review the TOS on a regular basis. A change will take effect immediately on posting on our website. You understand and agree that your continued use of the Service after the TOS has changed constitutes your acceptance of the TOS as revised. Without limiting the foregoing, if we make a change to the TOS that materially impacts your use of the Service, we may provide prior notice of any such change in our sole discretion. If you do not agree to any such change, you must cease accessing and using our website. You may provide notices to us by email to support@certicall.com or in writing pursuant to the terms of Notices set forth below.

Registration, Billing and Payment

Upon completing the registration process for a Subscriber Account, you may select or we will assign to you an account identification designation and username and you will be required to select a website password and telephone PIN Code. You agree that you are responsible for keeping your password or PIN code confidential and secure, and further understand that you are solely responsible and liable for any activities that occur under your Subscriber Account. In the case of any unauthorized use of your account, password or PIN, you agree to immediately alert CertiCall. You have the ability to change your password or PIN at any time through your online account. You agree to hold CertiCall harmless in the event of a breach to your account due to loss or compromise of a password or PIN. During registration, each Client must submit and maintain current and accurate contact information, including a working e-mail address and telephone number, and any inaccuracy therein shall be grounds for Account termination. We may distribute notices and other important information to Clients to such e-mail addresses, or by publication on our website, by transmission through the Service, or by communication sent by mail, e-mail or text message to the Client’s contact information on record with us. You agree that we may charge to your credit card or other payment mechanism selected by you all amounts due and owing for the Service. Charges will fall into two categories: Monthly Subscription charges and Optional Usage charges. Monthly Subscription charges equals the amount associated with the plan that you have selected and entitles you to continued service and bundled minutes. Optional Usage charges are charges that you incur for additional minutes of use over and above your bundled allotment, transcription charges, ID verification charges, extended storage or other requested services. Optional Usage charges may be billed at your time of purchase or aggregated in a cumulatively monthly charge, at our discretion. You may purchase additional minutes through your account management. In the event that you exhaust allotted minutes during an in progress call, we will automatically charge your credit card for an additional five dollars and credit your account with the applicable number of purchased minutes under your plan. Purchased minutes roll over from month to month and are used before plan minutes are. We may change prices at any time without prior notice, but we will use our best efforts to provide notice in a timely manner via website, your online account and/or email prior to such changes taking effect. You agree that in the event that we are unable to collect the fees owed to us for the Service, we may take other steps as we deem necessary to collect such fees and that you will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by us in connection with such collection activity, including interest, collection fees, court costs and fees of legal counsel.

Cancellation, Refund Policy, and Billing Errors

If you participate in a free trial you will subscribe to a continuing monthly service unless you cancel. CertiCall reserves the right to limit the number of free trial or other memberships. Free Trial memberships do not include ID verification or transcriptions. You give CertiCall permission and approval to verify your credit if appropriate.

Our phone number is 1-800-CertiCall and we operate during normal business hours, Mon – Fri, 9am to 5pm.

Not for Use in any Emergency Situation or Emergency Notification

While the Service is designed in part to promptly forward voice recordings to a number of recipients, it is intended for general business, organizational, legal and personal use and may not have the capacity to deliver messages of an emergency nature on an immediate basis. Accordingly we strongly recommend that alternative methods, specifically intended for mission critical or emergency services usage, be used, rather than the Service, to deliver emergency messages of any urgent, public safety or similar nature. You agree that Service Provider has no liability to you arising out of or related to any such use and indemnify Service Provider for any claim or liability, and all resulting costs, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) arising out of your specific use of the Service for such purposes.

No Legal Advice or Guidance Provided

Service Provider is offering its Service to you solely as a tool to record, archive, and substantiate oral conversations conducted by you in a phone call with other parties or as a personal recording medium. In as much as agreements involve matters of intent, and present varied mixed questions of fact and law, we make no guarantee or assurance as to the enforceability of such recorded phone calls as a legally binding agreement between you and other individuals that are a party to the recorded phone call in all jurisdictions of the Unites States. Use of our Service is solely at your discretion and our providing such Service should not be construed as providing legal advice or guidance. As with any legal agreement, we advise you to consult with a qualified attorney as to the validity or suitability of the certified recording for use in any personal, business or legal matter or proceeding.

Legality of Recording Phone Calls

The laws associated with recording phone calls between multiple parties are complex and vary from state to state and at the federal level. Some jurisdictions require two-party (or multiple party) consent for a phone call to be recorded while others have held that one-party knowledge of the recording is sufficient. We require you to comply with all applicable laws in the jurisdictions in which you intend to use the Service as a condition for use of the Service. In order to avoid possible confusion in this matter, we have integrated an upfront mutual party affirmative consent requirement into the Service for two or more party phone calls. Circumventing this mutual affirmative consent requirement is a violation of these TOS.

Handling of Recordings

Service Provider’s system is structured to record the desired elements of a phone call or personal recording and upon completion of that recording archive it in a secure fashion with a time and date stamp, as well as a unique reference number. The archived recording is designated as an “original recording” and is stored in a separate secure server for the subsequent purpose of validating the content of the recording as tamper free, if such a validation is ever necessary on your behalf. A copy of that recording, designated as the “working” file is made available to you for downloading, forwarding to one or more parties or for listening purposes by you or a designated third party. We bear no responsibility for the integrity of working copy files once they have been downloaded by you or sent to third parties on your behalf. Once an original recording is archived, we maintain that original recording for up to one year provided that you remain a Client in good standing and have sufficient storage space available to you. We reserve the right to delete original archives for any account that has been terminated. Your service options may include the ability to extend the period of storage for additional fees. You have the capability of deleting working copy recordings at your discretion. However, we strongly recommend that you review laws and statutes relating to deletion of such recordings (or consult with your attorney) if your intent was to use the recording as a basis for a contract or oral agreement with another party before any such deletions occur. For example, electronic signature laws typically require that a party that intends to rely on an electronic record of an agreement must provide access to that electronic record to other parties of that agreement. We also recommend that you make a personal copy of any recording that you intend to delete. We will make access to an original recording available to you (during the allowed archived period) if you have accidentally deleted files or changed your mind with respect to deleting files, for a fee. Prior to deleting original files after the term of archive has expired or if you cancel your subscription with us, we may notify you by email or through your online account in advance of deleting an original recording. You may then have the option of extending the archive period for a fee pursuant to certain payment plans offered by us. We will provide access to archived recordings to anyone who is a call participant within the allowed one year archive period, and non-members may incur a fee for retrieval. We will not provide access to any third party who is not a call participant without your express written permission, with the exception of a validly issued court order or subpoena. Our ability to securely archive and store recordings relies upon, among other things, competent personnel, secure facilities, standard hardware and custom software integrations. While we reasonably believe that such resources currently available to us will more than adequately serve the purpose to which they have been provided, they are subject to certain errors or failures normally associated with commercial hardware and software systems. We make no specific warranty or guarantee that the recording of a phone call or archiving of any recording will be error free or failure free during the course of any subscription. Our recording and archiving services are provided on a “best efforts” basis only. CertiCall assumes no responsibility or liability for the failure to store or transmit your account content, or for the deletion of this content.

Communications with call participants

CertiCall automatically provides access to call recordings to every subscriber irrespective of who initiated the call. In order to comply with electronic signature laws, CertiCall will also offer non-member participants access to those CertiCall recordings. The offer typically will be provided immediately following the conclusion of a Certicall by either phone, text message or email. You expressly authorize us to carry out this function.

Indemnification

Client acknowledges the importance of strict compliance with the laws, statutes, and regulations of the jurisdictions in which it intends to use our Service. Client further acknowledges that Service Provider relies upon the responsible actions, representations and reliable information provided by Client in the performance of its obligations under any Subscriber Agreement entered into between you and us. Client agrees to indemnify Service Provider for all losses (including reasonable attorney fees) that may devolve to Service Provider as a consequence of willful misconduct by you or by false, misleading, or erroneous information provided to us by you.
