Please note that you may withdraw your consent at any time, without providing a reason, either by clicking the unsubscribe link or by contacting us in any form.
You can subscribe to the General Newsletter by visiting the data controller’s website, where you can request this service by providing your name and the email address - where you wish to receive the newsletter; however, it can also be done if the interested party indicates this request to the customer service, and a customer service representative records this information in the internal administrative system.
The data provided from the internal administrative system is sent to the data processor responsible for sending the newsletter, who always sends a confirmation email to the new subscriber. To complete your registration, you must return the confirmation within 72 hours. Following this, actual subscription to the General Newsletter mailing list will take place. If the email address provided is already associated with another newsletter subscriber in the system, the person attempting to subscribe will receive only an informational e-mail regarding this fact, but the subscription to the newsletter will not be finalized unless an alternative email address is provided.
You can unsubscribe from the General Newsletter service in person at the customer service desk by indicating your request when you visit in person; the customer service staff will then record your request to unsubscribe in the internal administrative system. At the bottom of every newsletter we send out, there is a link labelled “Unsubscribe”; you can also use this link to unsubscribe from the service.
The request to unsubscribe is forwarded from the internal administration system to the data processor responsible for sending the newsletter, who, in this case, sends the patient a notification email confirming the unsubscription and immediately deletes the personal data processed for this purpose.
Please note that you cannot subscribe to or unsubscribe from the newsletter in the BHC MyHealth mobile app; as the mobile app does not support the newsletter feature.

SENDING EXCLUSIVE (SPECIAL) NEWSLETTERS AND CAREGIVER (PERSONALIZED) NEWSLETTERS
Introducing our exclusive (special) newsletter:
Exclusive newsletters are prepared for patients who have previously used the healthcare services provided by the data controller, subject to the patient’s consent. Exclusive Newsletters differ from General Newsletters in that they provide specialized, professional information. The data controller provides its patients with ongoing professional information regarding screening tests and draws their attention to seasonal health services (e.g., flu shots, tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) vaccinations, etc.). The purpose of the information provided in the Exclusive Newsletters is to draw patients’ attention to healthcare services that can help them maintain their health, prevent the onset of diseases, and detect existing conditions at an early stage. For this purpose, the data controller periodically sends informational, professional updates—specifically, an Exclusive Newsletter—to its patients to the email addresses they have provided.
The legal basis for sending the Exclusive Newsletters is the data subject’s consent.
Introducing our Care provider (personalised) newsletter:
The data controller—with the explicit consent of the patient concerned—will send the patient a personalized Caregiver Newsletter specifically designed to improve their individual health situation; provided that, based on their medical history and demographic data, certain types of healthcare services are indicated for them; for the purposes of health maintenance, prevention, or follow-up care. To achieve this, the data controller also manages the health data of the data subject (i.e., special categories of personal data), including evaluating and analysing such data. Affected patients can only subscribe to the Caregiver Newsletter using the email address associated with their personal online account; they cannot provide any other email address for newsletter delivery.
The group of data subjects (i.e., patients affected by the specific topic of the Caregiver Newsletter who are recipients of the Caregiver Newsletter) is identified through automated data processing. The procedure is as follows: the data controller specifies the relevant parameters (e.g., age, gender, place of residence, diagnosis, number of previous treatments, etc.), initiates a corresponding electronic database query, and then compares the search results with the BHC file IDs (i.e., the patients’ internal identification numbers) of those subscribed to the Caregiver Newsletter, and finally sends personalized content to those patients who have requested the Caregiver Newsletter.
The legal basis for sending the Caregiver Newsletter is the data subject’s consent, supplemented by the data subject’s explicit consent for the processing of health data, in accordance with Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR.
Common rules for the Exclusive and Caregiver Newsletters:
The process for subscribing to and unsubscribing from both newsletter services is the same as described for the General Newsletter Service (see details provided in the previous chapter).
Please be advised that you may withdraw your consent or explicit consent to receive both the Exclusive Newsletter and the Caregiver Newsletter, either separately or together, at any time. If you withdraw your consent, you will no longer receive the Exclusive Newsletter and/or the Caregiver Newsletter.
Please also note that the BHC MyHealth mobile app—if downloaded by the patient—may send notifications regarding various informational materials, such as screening tests, as well as the data controller’s seasonal health services (e.g., flu shots). Notifications can be disabled in the settings menu of smartphone applications. However, these notifications are not newsletters.
Data processing related to the Exclusive Newsletter and the Caregiver Newsletter mailing services is carried out as follows:
The aim of data management | Information about the data controller’s current health services (e.g., screenings) and seasonal health services (e.g., vaccinations) (Exclusive Newsletter); and up-to-date information on personalized professional recommendations tailored specifically to the individual, based in part on the analysis and evaluation of their health data; for the purposes of health maintenance, prevention, or follow-up care (Caregiver Newsletter). |
The legal basis for data management: | Consent of the data subject (i.e., given by the patient) pursuant to Article 6(1)(a) of the GDPR; in the case of the Caregiver Newsletters, this is supplemented by the data subject’s explicit consent for the processing of health data, in accordance with Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR. Both consent and explicit consent may be withdrawn at any time without providing a reason. |
Description of the legitimate interest: | The data management is not based on a legitimate interest. |
Categories of data subjects: | Patients who are natural persons and have subscribed to the Exclusive Newsletter and/or the Caregiver Newsletter. |
Categories of personal data processed: | The data subject’s name, email address for newsletter delivery (which, in the case of the Caregiver Newsletter, must be exclusively the email address associated with the online personal client account), and the type of newsletter requested; In the case of the Caregiver Newsletter, additionally the data subject’s BHC file ID (i.e., the patient’s internal identification number) and medical history data (type, date, and frequency of healthcare services received from the data controller, ICD code), as well as relevant demographic data (e.g., place of residence, gender, age). Health data are considered special categories of personal data under Article 9(1) of the GDPR, and their management requires the explicit consent of the data subject. |
Source of personal data: | The data is provided by the data subject themselves. |
The duration of data management: | We process the data until the data subject withdraws their consent, or explicit consent (or unsubscribes); or, in the case of a subscription request, until the 72-hour confirmation period specified in the data controller’s response email expires without result (after which a subscription request not confirmed by the data subject within 72 hours will be deleted). |

CONTACTING CUSTOMER SERVICE
Contacting us by phone; or by email at usinginfo@bhc.hu (except: For the Private Inpatient Care Unit); as well as
magankorhaz@bhc.hu as well as using the e-mail address in magankorhaz@bhc.hu for Private Inpatient Care/
If you wish, you can contact us via our website, by phone, or by email. If necessary, our customer service team may call or call you back; we will also respond to any written enquiries you may have.
In the case of a phone call, your conversation with customer service—or one facilitated by customer service—will be recorded on the grounds of a legitimate interest to ensure accountability, enable the handling of any complaints, and facilitate the enforcement of legal claims. For similar reasons and on the same legal basis, we record any phone calls made by our customer service team to contact you (e.g., callbacks). This is because the content of telephone calls predominantly involves the recording of highly sensitive personal data, such as appointment bookings, changes to or cancellations of appointments; information regarding requests for medical care; and personal data related to questions asked prior to treatment or the solution of post-treatment problems.
If you contact us via email, we will also process the personal data you provide in your email. Given that the person sending the email typically already has a relationship with the data controller (a legal relationship for the purpose of receiving healthcare services) or is sending the email with the intention of establishing such a relationship, we generally process personal data on the legal basis of the performance of a contract.
Please note that “Telephone Consultation” is regulated by a separate section in this Privacy Notice (Section 13 of the Privacy Notice) when the telephone conversation takes place with a medical specialist. This section describes only the data processing rules applicable to telephone contact with customer service.
We would also like to inform you that detailed information regarding the substantive procedures for handling complaints and the rules on data management is provided in a separate section—Section 15 of this Privacy Notice, titled “Complaint Handling.” This chapter deals exclusively with the data processing rules relating to the recording of calls made for the purpose of filing a complaint.
Your personal data will be managed as follows:
| The aim of data management | Responding to inquiries and requests from data subjects; ensuring transparent operations. In addition, another purpose of recording telephone calls is to enable the handling of any complaints and the enforcement of legal claims. |
| The legal basis for data management: | The legal basis for the processing of telephone communications—where the call involves a recorded conversation with customer service—is the legitimate interest of the data controller, the healthcare provider, and the patient, pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR.
The legal basis for processing personal data collected through email contact is the performance of a contract, in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR.
Regarding special categories of data (e.g., health data), data processing is permitted under Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR (the data subject’s explicit consent) or Article 9(2)(h) (the provision of health care or other medical services). |
| Description of the legitimate interest: | The legal basis for recording telephone conversations with customer service is the legitimate interest of the data controller, the healthcare provider, and the patient. The legitimate interest is to ensure greater accountability in connection with the provision of healthcare; to establish and document the possibility of filing complaints or enforcement of legal claims. However, the patient can expect their data to be processed, as they are informed of this both at the start of the consultation and on the data controller’s website. Recording of telephone conversations related to healthcare is a particularly important safeguard for which there is no less restrictive alternative. The data subject is also entitled to several rights. These rights are described in detail in this document. It is specifically emphasized that the patient in question may object to the recording of their personal data. Under your right of access, you may also request a copy of the audio recording, specifying the exact date, time, and phone number of the call. Finally, patients may request information regarding the processing of their personal data. |

OPERATION AND REGISTRATION PROCESS OF THE CORPORATE DATA EXCHANGE PORTAL; AS WELL AS THE SUPPLEMENTARY DATA MANAGEMENT RULES FOR OCCUPATIONAL HEALTH EXAMINATIONS (INCLUDING: SCREENING TESTS)
The Data Controller enters into agreements with numerous companies (i.e., legal entities, hereinafter referred to as “companies”) to provide healthcare services to their employees. To provide healthcare services, the company transfers various data to the data controller in advance so that the identification and medical examination of its employees—that is, the fulfilment of the ordered service package—can proceed smoothly. The data controller also provides the company with documents that, for example, the company must complete prior to the examination, or that record the data requested by the company following the examination.
The data controller established the corporate data exchange portal with the aim of ensuring that the data exchange takes place in the simplest possible manner while guaranteeing the highest level of data security. The portal is protected from an IT security perspective, so there is no need to encrypt data or documents before uploading them.
The corporate data exchange portal (or "corporate customer service portal") is available here: https://vallalatiportal.bhc.hu/
The Data Controller generates an online user account for its corporate partners who wish to use the corporate data exchange portal, based on the company’s corporate data and the contact person(s) designated by the company or other (non-personally identifiable) email addresses provided by the company. The data controller will then send the corporate user account details to this email address, with the understanding that the company (or its designated contact person) must create the password associated with the username to finalize the setup of the corporate online user account.
After that, the company—through its designated contact person authorized to use the portal—can log in using the username and password to upload documents and data, as well as download documents uploaded by the data controller. We emphasize that it is the company’s responsibility to ensure that the password it assigns at its discretion is known only to those individuals within the company who have authorization to access the portal. The data controller will have no influence or control over this matter. We recommend that if you suspect your password has fallen into unauthorised hands, it should be changed immediately; furthermore, it is advisable to change your password at regular intervals.
The portal displays the following information about the documents: the name of the uploaded document, the upload date, the document size, the client’s name, the document type, the uploader’s name (if the document is uploaded by a data controller, the specific person’s name is displayed; if uploaded by a company, only the account username is shown), the name of the first person to download the document (if the data controller uploads the document, the specific person’s name is displayed; in the case of a company, only the account username), date of first download, whether processing has taken place, comments.
Documents can be downloaded by clicking the "Download" button; they can be uploaded by clicking the "Upload New Document" button. All documents uploaded to the portal remain available for 30 days for delivery purposes; after that, they are permanently deleted from the platform.
During registration, the contact person provides their name and (if applicable) email address as personal data to the data controller; meanwhile, when using the corporate user account, the company transmits various personal data of its employees—including health-related data—to the company’s data controller, which the data controller will subsequently process. It is important to note that registration and use of the portal are subject to the company’s consent, so the company may delete its corporate user account at any time. The corporate user account will be deleted upon termination of the contractual relationship. However, if your company uses the data controller’s healthcare services, please note that the data controller is legally obligated to continue processing your employees’ medical records even after the company’s user account has been deleted; these records will not be deleted. For information on the management of company employees’ personal data while providing healthcare services—which is carried out in the same manner as the processing of all patients’ personal data—please review Section 11 of the Privacy Notice.
The details of data management are described below:
The aim of data management | The creation and operation of a corporate user account for the purpose of secure data transfer and the delivery of medical records between the contracting parties (the company and the data controller). In the broader sense, the purpose of data processing is to ensure the rapid and seamless delivery of healthcare services. |
The legal basis for data management: | The registration and operation of the corporate customer account are carried out with the consent of the company, which the company may revoke at any time. In this case, your personal account will be deleted. However, this data processing falls outside the scope of the GDPR.
With regard to the personal data of the company contact person (name and, where applicable, email address) and the data controller’s employees (their names) displayed on the portal, the legal basis for data processing is the legitimate interest of the data controller pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR (which is also consistent with the legitimate interest of the company). If an employee of the company receives healthcare services from the data controller, the data controller is required, pursuant to Section 136 of Act CLIV of 1997 (Health Care Act), to document the care provided and retain the medical records. The documentation may also include documents uploaded to the portal. The legal basis for the processing of this personal data complies with Article 6(1)(c) of the GDPR complying with a legal obligation (documentation of medical records). Regarding special categories of data (e.g., health data), data processing is permitted under Article 9(2)(a) of the GDPR (based on the data subject’s explicit consent) or Article 9(2)(h) (the provision of health care or other medical services). Similarly, the legal basis for the management and retention of invoice data is following a legal obligation. Regarding invoices issued for the provision of healthcare services, the basis for the documentation requirement (invoicing) is Section 159 and 169 of Act CXXVII of 2007 on Value-Added Tax, and Sections 166–169 of Act C of 2000 on Accounting. |
Description of the legitimate interest: | In connection with the use of the portal, the legitimate interest regarding the personal data of the contact persons (name and, where applicable, email address) and the employees of the data controller (name) are linked to the legitimate interest in the obligation to cooperate with the contracting partner and the fulfilment of contractual rights and obligations; however, the employees of the parties may have a right to self-determination regarding the protection of their names and workplace contact information, however, providing this information—to their employer—is also a legal obligation arising from their employment contract; contractual performance and smooth communication are in the fundamental labour law interests of these contacts and employees, so no actual infringement of rights affects these data subjects. The data controller processes the personal data of these data subjects solely in relation to the legal entity they represent and not in their capacity as natural persons. |
Categories of data subjects: | Company contacts authorized to create and manage corporate user accounts, employees involved in the data controller’s data upload process (whose names appear on the portal interface); and employees receiving healthcare services from the company, in their capacity as patients. |
Categories of personal data processed: | Regarding the contact person who activates and manages the corporate user account: name, corporate username, password, email address, and company name. Regarding data controller employees who upload documents and data to the data exchange portal: name. All personal data of company employees affected by the documentation uploaded to the portal that appears in such documentation. Typical documents and the personal data they contain: “List of eligible individuals”: full name, birth name, gender, personal identification number, mother’s name, exact address, Social Security number, occupational health classification code (A, B, C, or D), job title, company-specific data, Hungarian Standard Classification of Occupation (FEOR nr), date of birth, date of occupational health examination, fitness for duty, examination validity, fitness to work from ophthalmology standpoint testing visual acuity, visual examination validity, email address, phone number, health insurance fund code, tax identification number. “Referral Form” (for an occupational health examination): employee’s name, date of birth, address, job title, Social Security number, reason for the examination, the main health risks associated with the job, and the duration of such risks during working hours. “Occupational Health Statistics Form”: company name; names of employees subject to the examination; for each employee: date of birth, social security number, job title, occupational health category, date of occupational health examination, description of the occupational health examination, occupational health fitness status, validity of occupational health fitness examination, date of ophthalmic examination, eye fitness status, validity of eye fitness, validity of fitness for work justified by chest X-ray, contract description, company email address, employee ID nr, any company-specific data. “Screening TESTS Statistics Sheet”: the date of the screening test, the names of the employees affected, and the following details: type of screening, type of contract. Fitness for work assessments: Date of examination, name, date of birth, job title, employer, opinion (simply stating whether the individual is suitable for the position, possibly with restrictions, or whether they are unsuitable). Other information that can be uploaded to the portal includes appointments for healthcare services, cancellations of appointments, and changes to appointments, etc. Regarding healthcare services, Section 11 of this Privacy Notice provides detailed guidance on other personal data recorded about the employee as a patient—which the data controller processes uniformly for all patients in accordance with legal requirements. |
Source of personal data: | Some of the data processed is provided by the company, as the employer, through its contact person. The employee appearing for the examination, as the data subject, provides the personal data documented there in part on his or her own when appearing for the examination; other data is determined by the professional staff of the data controller involved in the provision of healthcare services. |
The duration of data management: | Documents uploaded to the corporate data exchange portal and the personal data they contain remain accessible for 30 days from the date of upload (provided the user account is active); after that, they are automatically deleted (since the purpose of the portal is not data storage, but rather data exchange and data transmission).
Please note, however, that when you use our healthcare services, the data controller remains obligated under the law to process your health and related data; therefore, deleting your user account does not automatically result in the deletion of documents uploaded or downloaded to it from the data controller’s administrative system.
Data constituting part of the health records pursuant to Section 30(1) of the Health Care Act, must generally be retained for 30 years (depending on the course of health care).

During non-emergency telephone consultation services, the call is not handled through customer service and is not recorded.
In the case of an urgent telephone consultation request, the patient calls the customer service number provided on the discharge summary, and customer service then connects the patient to the attending physician; the telephone conversation is recorded as specified in section 5. An exception to this rule applies when the attending physician or the on-call physician is unavailable (unable to answer the call), in which case the patient will be placed on a priority list and the physician will call them back later. Since the callback process is no longer handled through customer service, this conversation will not be recorded.

These rights are described in detail in this document. It is specifically emphasized that the patient in question may object to the recording of their personal data. Under your right of access, you may also request a copy of the audio recording. Finally, patients may request information regarding the processing of their personal data. |

ACCEPTING JOB APPLICATIONS
The data controller also welcomes job applications via the email address hr@bhc.hu when a position is advertised. It is also possible that a data controller may be contacted regarding a job application even if no position has been advertised. Considering this, we outline the related data management procedures below:
The aim of data management | Filling vacant positions; identifying and selecting suitable candidates; assessing competencies; handling unsolicited job applications. |
The legal basis for data management: | The legal basis for data management is the performance of a contract pursuant to Article 6(1)(b) of the GDPR. This is because, under the GDPR, submitting a job application constitutes an offer to enter a contract. If an advertised position is filled, the legal basis for data processing regarding unsuccessful applications after the position has been filled—during the period for asserting claims under labour law or equal opportunity law—is the legitimate interest of the data controller pursuant to Article 6(1)(f) of the GDPR. |
Description of the legitimate interest: | The reason behind data processing based on legitimate interests is that the applicant may assert a legal claim against the employer (or the parties may assert claims against each other) (e.g., why the applicant was not hired). The legitimate interest of the employer, as the data controller—which also coincides with the interests of the data subject—is to properly clarify the facts of the case, uncover evidence (i.e., establish provability), identify any potential violations of the law, and ensure that appropriate legal consequences can be applied. Applicants can expect their data to be processed (the parties should be aware of the possibility of asserting civil claims, and the privacy notice available on the website provides details on this); furthermore, the availability of application documents will assist applicants in asserting their legal claims. Both the data controller and the data subject therefore have a significant interest in clarifying the facts of the case. During the period in which legal claims are being pursued, the data controller will not process personal data in any other way and will store the applications separately from other personal data. |
Categories of data subjects: | Natural persons who submit job applications to the data controller via the email address hr@bhc.hu are considered data subjects; that is, the data controller processes their personal data in the manner described herein. |
Categories of personal data processed: | The data subject’s name, contact information, education, qualifications, professional experience, and any other relevant personal data necessary for the fulfilment of the position. Please DO NOT SUBMIT photocopies of documents or photographs as part of your application. If the data controller receives such personal data, it shall be deleted in electronic form, and any documents held in paper form will be disposed. If this is not possible, the application will be returned and deemed invalid. |
Source of personal data: | The data subject provides the personal data themselves and is therefore considered the source of the personal data. |
The duration of data management: | If the data controller has published a job posting, the data controller will retain personal data in the event of an unsuccessful job application until the last day of the 3rd year following notification of the outcome of the application process. This is the last day of the statute of limitations for labour and equal opportunity law. It then permanently deletes the data stored electronically and destroys the paper-based materials. If the data controller has not posted a job advertisement, but an interested party wishes to work for the data controller and therefore submits an application to the email address hr@bhc.hu, the data controller will retain the job application for 6 months. If no vacancy arises during this period, the application materials will be deleted or destroyed. The application materials of successful applicants will become part of their employment records; they will receive a separate privacy notice regarding this data processing. If the applicants submits their application to the email address hr@bhc.hu, which is not dedicated for this purpose, but to another email address of the data controller (which was not created for this purpose), we hereby inform you that the applications sent to the incorrect address will be deleted. |
Recipients (subjects of data transmission): | While performing its duties—strictly for the purposes specified—Bonitás IT Limited Liability Company may access personal data in its capacity as a data processor. (registered office 6725 Szeged, 18 Szabadkai Street, company registration number: Cg.06-09-012933., TAX id nr: 14445181-4-06, contact details: info@bonitasit.hu), which, in its capacity as a data controller, provides comprehensive application management, application development, infrastructure management, IT consulting and services, as well as IT security services. |
Third-country data transfers: | Third-country data transfer do not take place. |

Is the provision of data mandatory: | Data provision is not mandatory. |
What are the consequences if the data subject does not provide their personal data: | The job application cannot be evaluated without the required information. |

Right to information:
You may request information from the data controller regarding the processing of your personal data.
The data controller is required to provide you with all information regarding the processing of your personal data in a concise, transparent, comprehensible and easily accessible form, using clear and plain language.
The data controller shall provide the information in writing without delay, but no later than one month after receiving the request. At the request of the data subject, information may also be provided verbally, provided that the data subject has previously verified his or her identity in a credible manner.
If the application is complex and involves a large number of items, the one-month deadline may be extended by additional two months. The data controller shall inform the data subject of the extension of the deadline within one month of receiving the request, specifying the reasons for the delay. If the data subject submitted the request electronically, the information shall be provided electronically where possible, unless the data subject requests otherwise.
If the data controller does not take action in response to the data subject’s request, it shall inform the data subject without delay, and in any event within one month of receiving the request, of the reasons for not taking action, as well as of the data subject’s right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority and to appeal to the court.
The right of access to personal data and information regarding data processing:
The data subject has the right to obtain confirmation from the data controller as to whether their personal data is being processed, and if such processing is taking place, they have the right to access their personal data and the following information:
a) the aim of data management
b) categories of personal data processed:
c) the recipients, or categories of those recipients to whom the personal data have been or will be disclosed;
d) the planned duration of the storage of personal data, or the criteria used to determine that duration;
e) informing the data subject that he or she may request the data controller to rectify, erase, or restrict the processing of personal data concerning him or her, and may object to the processing of such personal data;
f) the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority (which is the NAIH);
g) if the data were not collected from the data subject, any available information regarding their source;
h) whether automated decision-making (including profiling) takes place at the data controller, and if so, in which areas, what logic is applied, what significance such data processing has, and what consequences it is likely to have for the data subject.
Right to receive a copy:
The data controller shall provide the data subject with a copy of the personal data being processed upon the data subject’s request. For any additional copies requested by the data subject, the data controller may charge a reasonable fee based on administrative costs. If the data subject submitted the request electronically, the information must be provided in a commonly used electronic form, unless the data subject requests otherwise.
However, the right to request a copy is subject to the limitation that it must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
The right to data portability:
The data subject has the right to receive the personal data concerning him or her, which he or she has provided to the controller, in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and has the right to transmit those data to another controller without hindrance from the controller; provided that the legal basis for the processing is the data subject’s consent, or explicit consent, or the performance of a contract; and provided that the processing is carried out by automated means.
If the above conditions are met, the data subject has the right—where technically feasible—to request the direct transfer of their personal data between data controllers.
However, the right to data portability is subject to the limitation that it must not adversely affect the rights and freedoms of others.
Right to rectification:
The data subject has the right to request that the data controller rectify inaccurate personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, or to have incomplete personal data completed—including, for example, by means of a supplementary statement.
Right to erasure:
The data subject has the right to request that the data controller erase personal data concerning him or her without undue delay, and the data controller is obliged to erase personal data concerning the data subject without undue delay if any of the following reasons apply:
a) the personal data is no longer necessary for the purposes for which it was collected or otherwise processed;
b) the data subject withdraws the consent (or explicit consent) on which the data processing is based, and there is no other legal basis for the data processing;
c) the data subject objects to the processing of their data on grounds of public interest or legitimate interest, and there is no overriding legitimate ground for the processing, or the data subject objects to the processing of their data for direct marketing purposes;
d) the data controller processed the personal data unlawfully;
e) Personal data must be erased to comply with a legal obligation under Union or Member State law to which the data controller is subjected.
If the data controller has made the personal data public and is required to erase it, the data controller shall take all reasonable steps, taking into account available technology and the cost of implementation — including technical measures — to inform other data controllers processing the data that the data subject has requested the deletion of links to the personal data in question or of copies or duplicates of such personal data.
The erasure of data cannot be requested if the data processing is necessary:
a) for the exercise of the right to freedom of expression and the right to information;
b) for compliance with a legal obligation under EU or member state law to which the controller is subjected, or for the implementation of a task carried out in the public interest or in the exercise of official authority assigned to the data controller;
c) based on public interest in the field of public health;
d) for public archiving purposes, scientific or historical research purposes, or statistical purposes, if the right to data erasure would likely make this data processing impossible or would seriously impede it, or
e) to assert, enforce, and defend legal claims.
The right to restrict data management:
The data subject has the right to request that the data controller restrict the processing of their data if any of the following conditions are met:
a) the data subject disputes the accuracy of the personal data; in such cases, the restriction applies for a period enabling the controller to verify the accuracy of the personal data;
b) the data processing is unlawful, but the data subject objects to the erasure of the data and instead, requests that its use be restricted;
c) the data controller no longer needs the personal data for the purposes of data processing, but the data subject requires them for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims; or
d) the data subject has objected to the processing; in this case, the restriction applies for as long as it has not been determined whether the objection is lawful, valid.
If the processing of personal data is restricted - with the exception of storage - such personal data may be processed only with the data subject’s consent, or for the purpose of establishing, exercising, or defending legal claims, or for the protection of the rights of another natural or legal person, or for reasons of substantial public interest of the Union or of a Member State.
The data controller is required to notify the data subject in advance if it lifts the restriction on data processing.
The right to object to data processing:
The data subject has the right to object at any time, on grounds relating to their particular situation, to the processing of their personal data based on legitimate interests.
In that case, the data controller may no longer process the personal data unless it demonstrates compelling legitimate grounds for the processing which override the interests, rights, and freedoms of the data subject, or which are related to the establishment, exercise, or defense of asserting legal claims.
Right to file a complaint:
The data subject has the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority if any of the above rights are infringed.
The supervisory authority is the National Authority for Data Protection and Freedom of Information (mailing address: 1055 Budapest,9-11 Falk Miksa street 9-11., 1363 Budapest, Post office box: 9., telephone: +36 (30) 683-5969, +36 (30) 549 6838, email: ugyfelszolgalat@naih.hu, website: www.naih.hu), where you can file a complaint or initiate an investigation by reporting that your rights have been infringed or are at immediate risk of infringement in connection with the processing of your personal data, or in the event of a violation of your rights.

“Genetic data”: any personal data relating to the inherited or acquired genetic characteristics of a natural person that provides unique information about the physiology or health of that person and that is derived primarily from the analysis of a biological sample taken from that natural person.
“Biometric data”: any personal data relating to the physical, physiological, or behavioural characteristics of a natural person, obtained through specific technical procedures, which enables or confirms the unique identification of that natural person, such as a facial image or dactyloscopic data;
“Data processing”: any operation or set of operations performed on personal data or on sets of personal data, whether or not by automated means, including collection, recording, organization, structuring, storage, adaptation or alteration, retrieval, preview, use, disclosure by transmission, distribution or making accessible by other means, alignment or combination, restriction, erasure, or destruction.
“Restriction of data processing”: marking stored personal data to restrict their future processing.
“Controller”: a natural or legal person, public authority, agency, or any other body which, alone or jointly with others, determines the purposes and means of the processing of personal data; where the purposes and means of processing are determined by EU or member state law, EU or member state law may also specify the data controller or specific criteria for designating the data controller The data controller in this case is Buda Health Center. In the case of data transfers, the recipient may be classified as a data controller or a data processor.
