## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability dach-cold-outreach-policy-signals-bb9f44d7 -d '<json body>'
```

Example prompt: Before I start a cold outreach campaign in Germany, check whether sending unsolicited B2B cold emails and phone calls is allowed or prohibited under UWG and GDPR — give me the policy signal and the legal basis for each channel.

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when an agent needs a fast, deterministic compliance signal before initiating cold outreach in Germany, Austria, or Switzerland — especially when channel selection depends on UWG or GDPR/DSGVO constraints. Prefer this over generic legal search tools when you need structured allowed/conditional/prohibited outputs with legal basis citations per channel, without any external HTTP requests or latency overhead. Not suitable for jurisdictions outside DACH or for definitive legal opinions.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported country code outside DE/AT/CH returns error or empty result
- Invalid or unrecognized channel type returns no signal
- Missing recipient-type context (B2B vs B2C) may yield conditional rather than definitive ruling
- Edge-case legal scenarios not covered by heuristic rules may receive conditional signals with incomplete basis refs
- Service returns routing hints only — not a substitute for qualified legal counsel

## How this service works

Deterministic cold-outreach policy signals for DE/AT/CH by channel (email, phone, sms, postal): allowed / conditional / prohibited with basis refs. Zero outbound requests. Keywords: outreach, cold-email, uwg, gdpr, deutschland, austria, switzerland. Not legal advice — routing hint for agents only.

## Output

A structured set of policy signals per requested outreach channel indicating whether the channel is allowed, conditional, or prohibited in the specified DACH country, along with references to the underlying legal basis (e.g. UWG §7, GDPR Art. 6 legitimate interest). No outbound requests are made; results are deterministic rule lookups.
