What constitutes "processing of health info"? What info should a company have to figure out whether GDPR applies to them?
1. “Data concerning health” or "health information" is defined by the GDPR as “personal data related to the physical or mental health of a natural person, including the provision of health care services, which reveal information about his or her health status.”
Processing means any operation or set of operations which is performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, such as collection, recording, organisation, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, consultation, use, disclosure by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure or destruction
2. The GDPR primarily applies to businesses established in the EU. It will also apply to businesses based outside the EU that offer goods and services to, or monitor, individuals in the EU.
