Records and consent documentation

Documenting consent and treatment supports the clinician’s duty of care and professional guidance (GMC). Electronic records are permitted; Certyneo produces tamper-evident, timestamped PDFs that support the record-keeping obligation in the event of a claim.

Special category data under UK GDPR

Health data is special category data under the UK GDPR and subject to a duty of confidentiality. Certyneo hosts in an EU data centre (UK adequacy decision), encrypts with TLS 1.3 and provides a data processing agreement.
