Controls and safeguards
Do not upload old club rosters to marketing platforms or expose a member directory by default.
Current Rotaract retains its own governance; alumni advise only when invited.
MEDIUM — legacy contact data, generational power dynamics and unwanted recruitment require permission renewal and alumni-led governance.
What to measure
Former Rotaractors renewing permission.
