Data Protection Officer (DPO). We have appointed a Data Protection Officer pursuant to GDPR Art. 37(1)(c), given large-scale processing of special-category health data (Art. 9). You may contact the DPO at dpo@medumix.de for any request concerning your rights or our processing activities. Response time is 30 days, extendable by up to 2 months for complex requests (Art. 12(3) GDPR).

2. Data We Collect

Account data: Name, email, phone number, password (hashed).

Health data: Allergies, medical history, consultation notes, prescriptions, diagnoses, uploaded medical documents. This constitutes special category data under GDPR Art. 9.

Usage data: Login timestamps, IP addresses (for audit and security), pages visited.

Payment data: Processed by Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers.

3. Legal Basis for Processing

Health data (GDPR Art. 9). The primary legal basis for processing data concerning your health is Art. 9(2)(h) — processing necessary for the provision of health care by a healthcare professional subject to the obligation of professional secrecy under Art. 9(3). The professional-secrecy obligation applies per jurisdiction: art. 383 Legea 95/2006 for doctors practicing in Romania, §203 StGB for Germany, and §54 Ärztegesetz for Austria.

Your explicit consent under Art. 9(2)(a) + Art. 6(1)(a), provided at registration, serves as a secondary and independent legal basis for onboarding, storing your medical history before the first consultation, and enabling the patient-driven features of the platform (document sharing, messaging).

Contract (Art. 6(1)(b)): Processing necessary to perform the consultation contract you booked and to maintain your account.

Legal obligation (Art. 6(1)(c)): Medical-record retention (see §7 for the per-jurisdiction duration) and accounting retention under Legea nr. 82/1991.

4. Data Storage and Security

All data is stored on EU servers (Hetzner, Frankfurt, Germany). Sensitive fields (CNP) are encrypted with AES-256-GCM. Database connections use TLS encryption. Access is role-based — doctors can only see data from their own patients.

5. Data Sharing (Processors)

Your data is shared only with the following processors under a GDPR Art. 28 data-processing agreement:

  • Your doctors (independent controllers) — only doctors you book with or explicitly share documents with can access your health data.
  • Stripe Payments Europe, Ltd. — Ireland (EU) — payment processing only (PCI-DSS). No access to health data.
  • Sendinblue SAS (Brevo) — France (EU) — transactional emails (appointment confirmations, reminders).
  • LiveKit — self-hosted on Hetzner Online GmbH, Nuremberg, Germany (EU) — real-time video/audio transport. No media is recorded or persisted.
  • Hetzner Online GmbH — Nuremberg, Germany (EU) — hosting infrastructure, database, object storage.

All processors are located within the EU / EEA. We do not transfer personal data to third countries. We do not sell your data. We do not share data with advertisers.
