What the data shows
Cold email to VP Finance contacts in Germany is governed by GDPR + TDDDG (General Data Protection Regulation (DSGVO) + Telekommunikation-Digitale-Dienste-Datenschutz-Gesetz (TDDDG)). German courts interpret B2B cold email very strictly. While GDPR legitimate interest is technically available, German courts (including BGH, the Federal Court of Justice) have consistently ruled that unsolicited B2B email constitutes unlawful interference — double opt-in is the de facto standard in practice.

The result is a typical bounce rate below 3%, compared to 25-35% on unverified Apollo exports.
