Can I exclude certain customers from discounts?

As an e-commerce manager, I'm looking for ways to strategically control who receives discounts in my online store. I want to prevent certain customers from accessing promotional offers, whether they're existing VIP customers, have already used previous promotions, or fall into specific segments that shouldn't receive additional incentives. I need a comprehensive approach to targeting discounts precisely and avoiding blanket promotions that could potentially reduce my profit margins or create unintended customer behavior.
