How to Keep Automated Decisions From Using Outdated Customer Preferences

Preferences can change after a workflow reads them, leading to actions that no longer reflect customer choice.

Checks to make

Read the current preference close to the action, track update timestamps and consent scope, and stop or revalidate when state is stale. Test opt-out changes during queued workflows and preserve evidence of the preference used.
