Indiana's Telephone Privacy Act IC 24-4.7 governs telephone solicitation statewide, while door-to-door sales are regulated by IC 24-5-10 home solicitation sales act, providing a three-day cancellation right that local ordinances cannot diminish.
While door-to-door solicitor permits are largely local, Indiana provides statewide consumer protections. IC 24-5-10 (Home Solicitation Sales Act) gives buyers a three-business-day right to cancel purchases of $25 or more made at the buyer's home. Sellers must provide written notice of cancellation rights. IC 24-4.7 establishes Indiana's Do-Not-Call list, with civil penalties up to $25,000 per violation enforced by the Attorney General. These statewide consumer protections apply uniformly regardless of local solicitor permits, and local governments cannot waive these rights through their ordinances.
Home solicitation violations under IC 24-5-10 allow consumer to recover damages plus attorney fees. Do-Not-Call violations carry civil penalties up to $25,000 per call enforced by Indiana Attorney General.
