Data Act compliance for a health app
Data Act (Regulation (EU) 2023/2854). This page applies it to one kind of product (health app), so you get the obligations that are actually yours instead of a summary of the whole statute.
Does it apply to you?
Products and related services that generate connected-device data.
What a health app typically processes
- health and wellbeing data, which is sensitive in most jurisdictions
- explicit consent as the usual lawful basis
- data shared with practitioners or providers
Each of these is processing you have to disclose. Adding an SDK later adds to this list — which is why a policy written once goes stale.
Documents you need
The intersection of what Data Act requires and what a health app actually does:
- Terms of service
- Privacy policy
Rights you must honour
Data Act gives people in the European Union the right to:
- Access a copy of their data
- Receive their data in a portable format
Cookies and trackers
This framework does not regulate trackers specifically. The rules of the markets you also serve still apply.
