CONTACT DATA · Workflow idea

Turn a card into a checkable contact draft while respecting the person’s expectations.

For a team or individual with an authorized purpose, extract apparent professional contact fields from a submitted business-card image and prepare a proposed contact row. OCR can transpose names or numbers, and contact details are personal data. Confirm the card owner’s context and intended use, compare every field with the image, limit retention and sharing, and require approval before adding the person to a contact or outreach list. Use only information the requester may access, explain personal-data use and retention, verify source details and rights, and keep external or consequential actions under human approval.
