Runs a time-bounded, permission-led reconnection campaign that segments alumni by desired value and closes stale data instead of repeatedly broadcasting generic asks.
More alumni can access useful networks and service pathways while the organisation improves data quality and trust.

Controls and safeguards
No bought, scraped or unofficial lists and no cross-program matching without authority.
A non-response is not consent; stop after the approved limited sequence.
HIGH — legacy lists, sensitive program identity, electronic-message consent and suppression failures make data governance the primary gate.
What to measure
Records verified, quarantined or closed.
Follow-up: Fulfil preferences within two working days, suppress opt-outs immediately and complete the final record-closeout within 30 days of campaign end.
