Merge Hygiene
Verify identity before you collapse threads
- Confirm full name + DOB / last visit before merge
- Keep a merge audit note: who approved, which channels joined
- Never merge on first name alone or matching profile photo
- Re-check consent and quiet-hours preferences after merge
- Stop-rules: no clinical freestyle during merge; no deleting the “losing” thread without export
Privacy

Consent basics: clinic chat consent compliance basics. Retention: clinic chat GDPR PDPA retention schedule.
Ops
