Ensuring Data Privacy and Security: Sona Health Turkey’s Commitment to GDPR Compliance

In today’s digital age, protecting personal data is paramount. At Sona Health Turkey, we recognize the importance of privacy and are dedicated to ensuring the highest standards of data protection for our patients, employees, and partners. As a leading healthcare provider, we adhere to the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the European Union’s comprehensive framework for safeguarding personal data.

What is GDPR?

GDPR, or the General Data Protection Regulation, is a robust set of regulations established by the European Union to strengthen data privacy and security for individuals within the EU and European Economic Area (EEA). Enforced since May 2018, GDPR governs the collection, processing, storage, and transfer of personal data, aiming to give individuals greater control over their personal information and hold organizations accountable for data protection practices.

Our Commitment to GDPR Compliance

At Sona Health Turkey, compliance with GDPR is fundamental to our operations. We have implemented stringent measures to ensure that all personal data entrusted to us is handled with the utmost care and in full accordance with GDPR requirements. Here’s how we uphold our commitment to GDPR compliance:

1. Data Protection Policies: We have developed comprehensive data protection policies and procedures that align with GDPR principles, covering areas such as data minimization, purpose limitation, and data subject rights.

2. Consent Management: Prior to collecting any personal data, we obtain explicit consent from individuals and clearly communicate the purposes for which their data will be processed. We respect individuals’ right to withdraw consent at any time.

3. Security Measures: We employ state-of-the-art security measures to safeguard personal data against unauthorized access, misuse, and loss. Our systems are regularly audited and updated to ensure compliance with GDPR’s security requirements.

4. Data Transfer Safeguards: In cases where personal data is transferred outside the EU/EEA, we adhere to GDPR’s stringent requirements for international data transfers, including the use of standard contractual clauses or other approved mechanisms to ensure an adequate level of protection.

5. Data Subject Rights: We respect the rights of data subjects as outlined in GDPR, including the right to access, rectify, erase, and restrict the processing of their personal data. Our dedicated Data Protection Officer (DPO) is available to address any inquiries or concerns regarding data privacy.
