SENDER CONTEXT REVIEW · Workflow idea

Check who a message is from before deciding how to respond.

For a professional message that needs additional context, organize permitted public profile details into a consistent review note. Keep the original message visible, mark missing or uncertain matches, and let an authorized teammate verify identity and relevance before using the information to route a request or prepare a response.

Keep in mind

Profile information can refer to the wrong person or be outdated, and visible professional details remain personal information. Use only what is necessary to handle the message, respect privacy and contact preferences, verify identity with reliable context, and require human approval before using details in a customer record or external communication.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define when sender research is appropriate

Document valid business purposes and cases where profile research is unnecessary or not permitted.

Limit details to what the task needs

Avoid unrelated personal information and keep access limited to authorized message handlers.

Set identity verification standards

Choose how a teammate checks public details and handles uncertain or similar-name matches.

Assign message and contact-data owners

Name who can approve any use in a record or external communication.
