Disconnect between businesses complying with their legal privacy legal obligations, and what individuals expect businesses to do with their data.

Privacy and Security

“[Patients are] more likely to give permission to sharetheir data if they understand how their data will beused”

• The Consumer’s Health Forum

Trust and Transparency

Businesses need to be more transparent about their data handling practices Transparency ensures businesses are clear about their practices and are giving proper consideration to what the customer should expect.

Trust and Transparency

By giving patients the ability to have their say in regard to how their data is handled, businesses are building consumer trust.

Patient Choice

Consider what happens at the point of collection of any personal information like health data and ask: − What information are we collecting about our patients? − How do we intend to use that information? − What information of our patients might we share with others and what will they do with it? − What information and choices are we giving our patients about personal information we collect?

Patient Choice

Understanding Data Processing Obligations

• Personal data
• Type of data
• Security obligations
• Nature and purpose
• Release of information
• Responsibilities
