Before exporting Contacts to an external team, should users who did not agree to later contact be filtered out?

Yes. Before sharing exported Contacts with an external team, review whether those people gave clear permission for later contact. StarLovin can help you collect contact details in Instagram DMs and export the Contacts data. The compliance decision happens during your own review process: check the wording used when the person shared their email, the purpose of the campaign, and whether later marketing or third-party follow-up was clearly explained.

A Safer Workflow

1. Make the opt-in copy clear before collecting the email.

2. Export the Contacts data from StarLovin.

3. Review the exported file for consent context, campaign source, and conversation notes.

4. Share only the contacts your team is comfortable using under your privacy and consent rules. This keeps StarLovin's role accurate: it helps collect and export the data, while consent review and any removal decisions happen outside the product.
