Online appointment booking has long been standard in progressive companies and organizations. But is your appointment booking really legally compliant? Many tools are not fully GDPR and nDSG-compliant - with consequences for your budget and reputation. In the video, Johanna Biela shows typical gaps and what really matters when it comes to GDPR-compliant appointment booking. From principle to practice: The free GDPR quick check uses 10 questions to show you immediately where you stand with your appointment booking tool and whether you should take action.
Why data protection is crucial for appointment booking solutions
Anyone who offers appointments online processes highly sensitive customer data. That is why the GDPR requires clear answers to questions such as:
- Where is the data located?
- Who has access?
- How are they protected?
It becomes particularly tricky when personal data such as health information, financial data or location data is involved. These are among the sensitive categories for which the GDPR stipulates particularly high protection requirements.
Many tools remain imprecise here or do not offer any real transparency. This is a considerable risk for companies - both legally and in terms of customer trust.
