Article by Stavros Zoumpoulidis, Senior Associate in the Data Protection Department of our Law Firm , entitled “The processing of health data — such as information related to HIV status — poses a critical challenge for compliance and data security in the digital era.” (published by NOMIKI BIBLIOTHIKI Daily, 10/11/2025)

 

In his latest analysis, Mr. Zoumpoulidis explores the European and national legal framework governing the processing of such data, focusing on:

Article 9 of the GDPR and its exceptions for special categories of personal data, the EDPB’s guidelines on the processing of health data, and the new regulatory obligations introduced by the AI Act and Greek Law 4961/2022, which establish key principles for the responsible use of AI systems in the healthcare sector.

The article highlights that the protection of HIV-related data requires a solid legal foundation, strong technical safeguards, and effective human oversight — essential components of a modern and responsible approach to data governance in the age of Artificial Intelligence.
