RESPONSIBLE OUTREACH · Workflow idea

Build a useful local business list without mistaking a public listing for permission to collect or contact.

For authorized work involving a defined city and business category, permitted public listings, and source-linked company details, prepare a limited, source-linked list of businesses matching an approved location and category for a researcher to verify. Listings may be stale, omit context, or include personal contact details, and collection or reuse may be restricted. Confirm purpose and source terms, minimize personal information, verify each business and date, honor correction and suppression requests, and require a person to approve each record and any separate outreach. Explain information use and retention, obtain required consent, respect source and reuse rights, verify important details, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.

  1. Establish a permitted reason to contact

    Use reliable records and remove guesses, sensitive inferences, or invented familiarity.

  3. Respect privacy and contact preferences

    Minimize personal data and apply opt-outs, suppression requests, and channel-specific restrictions.

  4. Review the exact recipient and message

    Check claims, disclosures, recipient, timing, and whether the contact is expected.
