Important Notes

Contact Identification: Contacts are identified during radar creation using email, LinkedIn profile URL, or full name.

Multiple Contacts: You can track multiple individuals at the same company with separate radars.

Privacy: Profile URLs are included for contact identification; other personal identifiers remain excluded.

Tracking Period: Changes are detected based on publicly available professional information.

Previous Role Context: The previous_role object contains the role at the company you originally tracked, not necessarily the most recent role the person held. For example, if you're tracking someone at Microsoft and they move to Meta, then later move to Google, the previous_role will show their Microsoft role (your tracked company), not their Meta role.

Tracking Continuity: If you do not want to track contacts at new companies that TAMradar identifies, you should deactivate the radar. For example, if you're tracking someone at Microsoft and they move to Meta, TAMradar will automatically start tracking their Meta role. Deactivate the radar if you only want to monitor the original company.
