  1. Confirm purpose, permissions, and consent

    Use only the information and accounts approved for business contact details found in public listings; explain collection, honor contact or data choices, and keep access limited to the people who need it.

  2. Review the task-specific evidence

    Verify business relevance, source date, contact type, and whether each field is necessary for the stated purpose.

  3. Check source details and uncertainty

    Verify dates, identifiers, facts, and omissions for business contact details found in public listings against current original records; mark unknowns rather than filling gaps by assumption.

  4. Protect privacy, safety, and rights

    Minimize sensitive details, respect confidentiality and copyright, verify consent or usage rights where relevant, and use a safe human handoff for high-impact or uncertain cases.

  5. Approve before taking consequential action

Set validation and exception rules

Limit collection and retention, keep the sheet access-restricted, record provenance, and keep messaging separate from research.

Limit sensitive data and recipients

Use the minimum required fields, restrict source records and outputs, and keep private details out of broad alerts or unrelated work.

Keep external and high-impact steps human-approved

Test that messages, publication, financial or clinical decisions, destructive changes, and other consequential actions remain paused until an authorized person approves them.
