How Can Gynecological Practices Ensure GDPR Compliance?
To ensure compliance with GDPR, gynecological practices must follow a series of steps:
Data Minimization: Only collect data that is necessary for the specific medical purpose. Consent: Obtain explicit consent from patients for collecting and processing their data, and allow them to withdraw consent at any time. Data Security: Implement robust security measures to protect data from unauthorized access, breaches, or leaks. Data Subject Rights: Ensure that patients can exercise their rights under GDPR, such as the right to access, rectify, or erase their data. Data Protection Officer (DPO): Appoint a DPO if the practice processes large volumes of sensitive data.
