Telemarketing in France

☎️ Telemarketing in France: the framework since August 11, 2026

The French framework for teleprospecting to individuals has been profoundly modified by the Law No. 2025-594 of June 30, 2025, known as the “Lecamp Law,” applicable since August 11, 2026.

Two major changes: the Bloctel list has ceased its activities, and telemarketing to individuals now relies on a prior consent. Checking an opposition list is no longer sufficient.

This page presents the applicable framework and best practices to adopt. It does not constitute legal advice: for your own processing, consult your DPO or a specialized legal advisor.

🛑 What has disappeared: Bloctel

Bloctel was the official opposition list for telemarketing, managed on behalf of the French state. Individuals could register for free, and companies were required to purge their files before each campaign.

This system ended on August 11, 2026. It is no longer possible to open a Bloctel Business account, nor to filter a prospecting file through this service. See our archive page on Bloctel.

⚠️ If your organization relied on Bloctel filtering to justify its compliance, this proof method is no longer valid. It must be replaced by collecting and storing consents.

✅ What replaces it: prior consent

Since August 11, 2026, any commercial prospecting call to an individual requires that the person has given their agreement in advance. This consent must be:

  • free - given without constraint or disguised consideration,
  • specific - relating to a identified use, and not buried in a general acceptance,
  • informed - the person knows who will call and why,
  • revocable - they can withdraw it at any time, as simply as they gave it.

⚠️ The burden of proof lies with the professional. It is the calling company's responsibility to demonstrate that they had valid consent at the time of the call.

A pre-checked box, a mention buried in terms and conditions, or a file acquired without a consent history do not constitute valid consent.

🚫 Three sectors are subject to specific bans

  • the energy renovation,
  • the adaptation of housing to loss of autonomy or disability (MaPrimeAdapt'),
  • the Personal Training Account (CPF).

These three sectors have concentrated most of the abuses observed in recent years, which explains their separate treatment.

⚖️ Penalties incurred

  • up to 75,000 € fine for an individual,
  • up to 375,000 € fine for a legal entity.

💼 And what about B2B prospecting?

B2B prospecting remains permitted. It can be based on legitimate interest, provided that the message sent relates to the professional function of the contacted person.

It remains subject to the right to oppose at any time. For details on your data obligations, see our GDPR page.

👤 What is IQUALIF’s role in all this?

IQUALIF is a technical tool for aggregating and structuring data from publicly accessible sources (professional directories, business registers, legal publications, open sources).

⚠️ The user is solely responsible for the use they make of the data collected with the software.

As the publisher, IQUALIF does not intervene in the processing of data extracted by the user, in the campaigns that follow, nor in the intended use chosen by each client. It is up to you, the end user, to collect and retain proof of the consent of the individuals you wish to call.
