| 4. Account-wide block | Contact blocked from the Client’s future campaigns (all service categories) | Permanent |
| 5. Audit record | Opt-out event logged with timestamp | Permanent retention |
Hard bounces and spam complaints are additionally quarantined across the platform to protect deliverability. Prospects may also email sultan@veridra.ae to be added to the suppression list; manual requests are processed within 24 hours.
