Pitfalls to watch at work

Apollo

Bulk email from your main domain ruins its reputation and your client emails land in spam: use a separate domain
Job titles and contacts go stale: check the person on LinkedIn before writing

Humata

A contract archive with parties and amounts in a third-party cloud needs a data processing agreement: without one, upload anonymized or public documents

An answer across hundreds of documents may mix up terms from different contracts: check which file the highlighted passage comes from
