The Hungarian DPA fined a gynecologist €1,400 for not ensuring effective exercise of data subject rights in violation of Articles Articles 5(1)(a), 12(2) and 13(1)(a)(b) GDPR.

English Summary

Facts

The data subject was the patient of a gynecologist (the controller), who owned a private practice, and requested access to their complete medical records. Within a span of over two months, the data subject sent two letters requesting a copy of the records, both with no response. Consequently, they lodged a complaint with the Hungarian DPA in order to obtain access to the data.

The DPA initiated a procedure and asked the controller to clarify the facts of the case. The controller responded that it managed the practice without any administrative help and due to the Covid-19 pandemic, struggled with minor administrative shortcomings. Consequently, it did not become aware of the data subject's request on time. The controller largely relied on paper records rather than an electronic patient database and only maintained the statutory mandatory electronic records. At the request of the DPA, the controller provided a copy of the documents, signed and sealed, to the data subject. However, the file was not complete as several medical test results were missing.

The DPA examined whether the controller acted lawfully in considering the request for access to medical records. The requested documentation related to the data subject's maternity care and pregnancy, which ended in the death of the fetus. The DPA also examined ex officio the general data management practices of the controller.

Holding

First, the DPA recalled that the GDPR defines data relating to the health and healthcare of a data subject as personal data, including special categories of personal data under Article 9 GDPR.

Second, the DPA noted that maintaining paper records is still considered processing of personal data under the GDPR if the data are part of a filing system, in line with Article 2(1) GDPR. Article 4(6) GDPR defines a filing system as "any structured set of personal data, which are accessible according to specific cirteria". Accordingly, the DPA held that, in the present case, the patient files maintained by the controller in the context of providing private healthcare fell within the scope of the GDPR.

Third, the DPA noted the obligations of the controller under Articles 12(2) and 15 GDPR to provide the details of the right to access as well as a copy of the requested data. Respectively, the copies of medical records sent to the data subject were not complete and the controller did not respond at all to two consequtive requests. The DPA pointed out that, according to the principle of accountability in Article 5(2) GDPR, the controller is responsible for compliance with the GDPR and must be able to demonstrate it.

Fourth, the DPA noted that, contrary to the requirements of Article 13(1)(a)(b) GDPR, it was difficult to find the correct address for submissions of access requests because the controller's Privacy Notice with contact information was not provided to the data subject.

The Hungarian DPA had to reject the data subject's request to order the controller to submit the missing documents as they turned out to be missing from the medical documentation overall. However, on its own initiative, the DPA concluded that the controller did not ensure an effective exercise of data subject rights in violation of Articles 5(1)(a), 12(2) and 13(1)(a)(b) GDPR. The DPA imposed a €1,400 fine for these violations.

You requested your general data management practices.

IV.2. The fact of data management, the person of the data manager


Based on the definition of the general data protection regulation, for the health of the data subject
and the data relating to your health care are personal data, including personal data
as data constituting a special category of data, any processing performed on personal data

A data controller according to Article 4, point 7 of the General Data Protection Regulation, who is there

has substantive decision-making authority as defined - the purpose of data management
and its means may also be defined by member state law - and at the same time it bears responsibility
for the fulfillment of legal obligations related to data management. So, among other things, it is
the data controller must satisfy the data subject's demand for the exercise of rights
[general data protection decree 12-23 article].


According to the Respondent's statement, the patient data is included in the "Condition Assessment Sheet for Patients"
recorded by means of a document, which is registered on a paper basis. The patient documentation is a

The concept of data management is defined in point 2 of Article 4. The General Data Protection Regulation
According to preamble paragraph (15), the protection of natural persons is personal data

in addition to processing by means of automated means, it also applies to manual processing if a
personal data is stored or intended to be stored in a registration system. Documents that
and groups of documents and their cover pages that are not organized are specified
aspects, they do not fall under the scope of the regulation. Among these provisions are the following
they follow.

The general data protection regulation includes manual data processing

restrictive provision. Manual, i.e. non-automated (in other words: paper-based)
in the case of data management, the scope of the regulation only covers data that
are part of a registration system or are managed for registration purposes.

What constitutes a registration system is determined by Article 4, Point 6 of the GDPR,
according to which registration system personal data in any way – centralized,
decentralized or according to functional or geographical aspects – its staff, which is 13


accessible based on specific criteria. The concept of registration is therefore broad
can be interpreted, it can be any list or list in which the data is of any kind

they can be searched and grouped according to criteria.

In view of what has been described, private health care is provided by the Applicant regarding the data of its patients
during the general data protection regulation on a paper-based, manually kept record
applicable. The maintenance of this record is Article 4, Point 2 of the General Data Protection Regulation

provides for the details of the right of access, including the data in Article 15 (3).

establishes the right to a copy.

As stated above, the provision of healthcare services includes patients
in general, and also in the present case […] an individual entrepreneur is considered a data controller,
as a health care provider who is the personal and health data of the patients concerned
during the care provided by him on a paper basis, and with regard to the mandatory data upload
is electronically documented, the fact of the quality of the data controller is also the statement of the Requested

records.

According to the introduction of the Data Management information of the Respondent dated 2020, “[…]
individual entrepreneur (headquarters: [...]; tax number: [...]; medical registration number: [...]; individual
business registration number: [...]) (hereinafter: Doctor) for its data management activities
related main regulations", while the Data Management Information dated 2021 a
according to the introduction, "[…] individual entrepreneur (headquarters: [...]; tax number: [...]; medical

In point 9 of both information sheets, there is a provision on how to ensure the rights of stakeholders, a

does not meet the requirements of Article 12 (1) of the Decree.


According to point 10 of both information sheets, data protection officer [...], address: [...]; e-mail: […]; and
can be found as an explanation that “with data protection issues or questions the above
you can contact a data protection officer". However, according to the Authority's point of view, it is not
it follows that the data subject's requests must also be sent to the data controller in this way, or that
according to Article 39 of the General Data Protection Regulation, it is not responsible for data protection either

In addition to public health care, the Applicant is covered by the […] clinic […]

service at this location. You sent your affected access requests to this address
twice, indicating the Applicant who regularly provides services there as recipient.


According to the Respondent's statement, he did not fulfill the access request because a
did not become aware of the request. He did not become aware of the request because a
addressed to the place of your private order, registered, then mailed with return receipt
he did not receive shipments.


According to Article 5 (2) of the General Data Protection Regulation, the data controller is responsible for (1)
for compliance with paragraph and must also be able to demonstrate this compliance
("accountability").

In the present examined case, the Respondent could not prove, according to the contents of his statement,
that the Applicant was familiar with the data management information, so the Applicant was not
in possession of the information on the address of the business headquarters of the service provider providing it,

where you could have otherwise sought the data protection officer. On the Applicant's website a
In the "Contact" menu item, at the time of initiation of the official procedure, the "Place of order:

the indication of the reporting address. That the Applicant was aware of the stakeholder requests
the address and method of submission, the Applicant could not verify, to the place of the order
and he did not ensure the reception of the submitted request.

According to the Authority's point of view, the data subject does not have to be aware that it is

the legal form in which the healthcare provider operates, its corporate headquarters
does it match the place of the order. If the person concerned, about the address for submission of applications
does not receive explicit and verifiable information, it is reasonable and unobjectionable if the request
it will be delivered to the address where you regularly visited the doctor for medical care.

The data controller's duty to facilitate the exercise of rights includes that
the data controller must cooperate with the data subject, in addition to the general data protection regulation

according to the data controller does not have the possibility to limit the rights of the data subject
the way of presentation.

If a data management information sheet has been presented to the data subject in a verifiable manner
contains the address of submission of data subject requests, in which case the data controller
you can claim that you helped assert the rights of the affected parties. if not

to help the data subject in order to receive his request properly.

According to the above findings of the Authority, the rights of the stakeholders were not ensured
the possibility of effective exercise in relation to the Applicant, thereby the Applicant
violated Article 12 (2) and Article 13 (1) of the General Data Protection Regulation

paragraph a-b).

Based on the inspection carried out on May 4, 2022, the Authority found that the Applicant

business address.



IV.4. Management of health documentation, management of the Applicant's data 15



The General Data Protection Regulation defines the concept of data controller and data management
when defining it, it clearly states that the person who is personal is considered a data controller

manages data. The fulfillment of stakeholder requests regarding the subject of data management is general
Article 12 of the Data Protection Regulation is the body or person performing data management activities
makes it an obligation.

The 2020 Data Management Information of the Requested 6.1.4. point contains the following:

The 2021 Data Management Information of the Requested 6.1.4. clause provides as follows:

among the documents downloaded from the system during the Respondent's private order, the specified
documentation created at test times was not included.


Consistent with this, the Respondent's statement states that the Applicant is a
no data or documents can be found in its records.

The data subject's rights and their exercise can only be interpreted if there is data management which
however, it was not in the specific case. As a result, the Respondent did not violate the

For this reason, the Eütv cannot be established. Violation of the provisions of § 24 - which section is it
the rules of the general data protection regulation are ordered to be applied by the health department
regarding access to documentation and providing copies.


As a result, the Authority rejected the Applicant's request that the Authority oblige a

in the relevant part of the application, the procedure is referred to in Art. on the basis of § 17, terminates it in an order.


IV.5. Findings regarding the documentation practices of the Applicant

Due to the present case, the data management information provided by the Respondent does not cover the reality
practice, because it states in its information that it keeps paper-based records,

creates an electronic record based on its own decision, it is its legal obligation
complies with the electronic data transmission circuit, in addition to all this, the
entry in the maternity care book as well.

In the data management information, the Respondent states that the data is a
registers it in the pregnancy care book, which also means that you are aware of
that you have to record the data in another form, and also your patients about this practice

informs.

On the contrary, it refers to the processing of data concerning the Applicant during the discovery of the facts
information did not arise, the existence of data management concerning the Applicant could not be verified.

Furthermore, the Respondent made a contradictory statement in the present proceedings when earlier
stated that he does not keep electronic records, later the mandatory data upload

acknowledged the fact of electronic data management in demanding cases. However, he did not comment
in detail about the cases in which electronic data transmission is sufficient
obligation, what is considered a necessary case. The Respondent therefore approached the Authority
also amended its declaration, which basically affects its data management
it referred to circumstances, thereby making its real practice difficult for the Authority
exploration.


As for the Authority, the Respondent is not transparent for the affected parties either
practice. Based on all these circumstances, the Authority concludes that a
Requested 17 prescribed in Article 5 (1) point a) of the General Data Protection Regulation


did not ensure the enforcement of the basic requirement of transparency, and the Respondent is
could not fully prove the legality of its data processing.


The Applicant stated that it was professional due to the emergency situation caused by the coronavirus
because of his additional tasks, he considered administration a task of secondary importance, for this reason
administrative failures may have occurred in its operation. So does the Respondent himself
states that "in certain cases" there were omissions, which the Authority
in its interpretation, it does not only mean the involvement of one person.


The Authority's position regarding administrative tasks is that the coronavirus
certain additional tasks due to an emergency may result in certain data management
postponement of the documentation obligation, however, this cannot mean the professional
according to the regulations, the documentation required in the Eütv to be kept about the patient/patients
complete neglect of the obligation, therefore, the complete management of health documentation
leaving.


The Respondent's practice in fulfilling its documentation obligation a
It had an impact on the processing of the applicant's data and his rights, as the data subject is exercising his rights
is closely related and made it impossible, so the Authority for this reason the facts
examined the issue during clarification.

To the bodies and persons involved in pregnancy care, in the pregnancy care book
26/2014. (IV. 8.) EMMI decree prescribes for the purpose of

that for the bodies providing care for pregnant women (specialists, family doctors, nurses, midwives) the
care process information is summarized in a document.

However, according to the Authority's point of view, the fulfillment of this requirement does not mean that the Eütv. § 137 b)
of the issue of findings according to point 39/2016. (XII. 21.) EMMI Decree § 19, paragraph (2).
according to, after the mandatory connection of the private service provider after January 1, 2020, the
The obligation to provide data to the EESZT system as a data controller requirement a

omission.

According to the Authority's point of view, the management of health documentation required by law a
during a coronavirus emergency, it cannot be considered an obligation that can be pushed into the background. Any
the patient's treatment history is essential for the doctor treating the affected person,
medical history study in the Eütv. Expected care according to § 77, paragraph (3) and a
for the sake of a professionally founded procedure, which cannot be ensured in the event that

the person concerned does not receive the required documentation about his treatment, so it may be a
it cannot be forwarded to another doctor later on.

The Eütv. Paragraph (2) of § 26 also mentions the patient's medical history as an obligation and
information about medical history, which the patient cannot fully comply with,
if he does not have the appropriate documentation for his care.


In the case of maternity care, data on the life and health of the mother and fetus
are the subject of medical documentation. In this case, during the private order
the processes leading to the tragedy by failing to fully record the generated data
documentation was lacking, for which the Applicant was not aware of the data subject's rights
practice and did not get hold of your important health data.

The fact that the Respondent, as a health care provider, is required to apply to him professionally

did you act in accordance with the rules when, in connection with pregnancy care, a
no documentation other than entries in the pregnancy care booklet
led, did not give a finding to the provided Applicant at the end of the supply events, or a
findings were not forwarded to the EESZT system, it is not the authority of the Authority to judge. 18



The examination of this question - the management of the Requested health documentation

monitoring the fulfillment of its obligations and related legal requirements - a
It is initiated ex officio by the authority at NEAK.

IV.6. The Authority rejected the Applicant's request for a data protection fine
application, since the application of this legal consequence affects the right or legitimate interest of the Applicant
does not directly affect him, such a decision of the Authority does not create a right or obligation for him

arises, as a result of which this legal consequence falls within the scope of enforcing the public interest
the Applicant is not qualified for the imposition of a fine
for the client, the Akr. Based on § 10, paragraph (1). Since the Ákr. § 35, paragraph (1) no
corresponds, there is no place to submit an application in this regard, this part of the application
cannot be interpreted as a request. Application for the imposition of a data protection fine by the Authority
in connection with - preambular paragraphs (148) and (150) of the General Data Protection Regulation, 58.
and Article 83 (2) - further points out that the Supervisory Authority - the

depending on the circumstances of a given case - he is entitled to decide ex officio in his discretion
in order to protect personal data against the data manager/data processor
effective, proportionate and dissuasive measures to be applied, or instead of them
in addition to sanctions, such as the need to impose an administrative fine, and its imposition
in case of its extent.


V. Legal consequences:

V.1. The Authority rejected the Applicant's requests, established a violation ex officio, and a
On the basis of Article 58 (2) point b) of the GDPR, the Applicant is condemned for having violated it
Article 5 (1) point a), Article 12 (2) of the General Data Protection Regulation,
and points a)-b) of Article 13 (1).


V.2. The Authority rejects the Petitioner's request for the imposition of a fine
examined ex officio whether a data protection fine against the Application was justified
due to the established violations.

In this context, the Authority is in accordance with Article 83 (2) of the General Data Protection Regulation and Infotv.
75/A. considered all the circumstances of the case based on §. Given the circumstances of the case a

The authority established that in the case of the violation discovered during the present procedure, a
a warning is not a proportionate and dissuasive sanction, therefore the imposition of a fine
required.

Above all, the Authority took into account that the violation committed by the Respondent was
according to Article 83 (5) point b) of the General Data Protection Regulation, the higher amount
is considered a violation of the fine category, since it is the basic provision and

involved a violation of the rights of stakeholders.

According to the Authority's point of view, it is otherwise regularly there at the place of order
service provider through organizational measures (postal redirection, shipment
giving an order for on-site collection, delivery notification of registered shipment
forwarding to, etc.) ensure the receipt of stakeholder letters received, they did not depend on the
