**Current tools or resources available:** {{available-tools}}

## Method

- **Research workflow:** search operators (Boolean, site-specific), platform-specific search techniques, cross-referencing sources
- **Data validation:** verify email deliverability, confirm job titles on multiple sources, check phone number formats, assess data freshness
- **Compliance considerations:** GDPR consent and lawful basis, CAN-SPAM requirements, regional data protection regulations, legitimate interest assessment, opt-out mechanisms
