Consumers constantly generate health data, for example when they go to the doctor, use a blood-sugar-meter or access a nutrition or sports app. Health data is highly sensitive. It can not only have a big impact on a person’s health but also, for example, on job applications or on getting approval for a bank loan. Because of this sensitivity, health data is subject to a high standard of protection under the General Data Protection Regulation. The creation of European Health Data Space must not lower that level of protection and take away control and transparency from consumers regarding their health data.
