Research direction

Start by locating the lead scanning app workflow and the screen shown before a sponsor scans a badge. Trace how first-load or persisted confirmation state is stored, then determine how the app identifies the first expo-hall day. Done means the permission confirmation blocks scanning initially and is required again on the specified reset date.

Request
I'd like to add an extra confirmation that sponsors promise to only scan badges from attendees who consent the in lead scanning app workflow

Desired result
On a user's first load of the app scanner before they can continue on to scan a badge, require them to confirm they will only scan badges of attendees who have given them permission to do so. The app should also reset on the first day the expo hall opens (in 2024, this is May 16), so they have to do it again.

Why
At least one person complained of a sponsor aggressively scanning. While attendees already have a way to see who scanned them & report if they didn't consent, it doesn't hurt to make sure anyone using our lead scanning app is reminded of appropriate behavior.

Thank you!
