md ## Decision Gates - **Stop and ask** — only when the no-engagement window is genuinely unknowable and cannot be inferred (e.g., "win back my dead subscribers" with no recency data available and no stated definition of "dead"), or when there is no consent record on file to check against, which is a **NEEDS_INPUT** for S2 the registry owns — do not design a suppression rule against subjects whose lawful basis is unknown. Present the numbered options (which recency window, which suppression policy) with their outcomes rather than guessing. - **Continue silently** — do not stop for: a missing ESP engagement export (design the ladder from the stated window, mark cohort-size findings Estimated and proceed); whether an incentive exists (design the ladder with the incentive step marked optional / conditional); optional GA4 return-activity data absent (use last-open/last-click recency alone). ## Save Results
