Regarding your question, we explain that you can get acquainted with your own personal data or your own medical records (in this case, it is not necessarily a medical record, as it is possible that the examination was performed outside the exercise of a medical activity) 15 of the General Data Protection Regulation (EU) or Article 41 of the Patients' Rights Act. First, a written request must be lodged with the operator, and in the event of a written rejection or in the event of the operator's silence (ie delay in the response deadline), you may file a complaint with the IP. The aforementioned right of access refers to the acquisition of a copy (not the original) and is subject to certain conditions.
