Duke Data Privacy Day 2024 - Beyond the Reach of HIPAA: Mental Health Apps, Health Data, and Privacy

Liz Sparacino, Masters candidate in Duke University's Tech Ethics and Policy Graduate Program, sets the stage for the 2024 Duke Data Privacy Day event.
Twenty-first century technologies, in particular the apps we use on our mobile devices, combined with the lack of effective, privacy protective laws in our information economy, create risks for data related to our health. Duke’s Data Privacy Day 2024 event, “Beyond HIPAA: Mental Health Apps, Health Data, and Privacy” will address the vast category of health information that is not covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act and the urgent need for privacy law and policy to regulate the commercial collection and use of this data.
