Navigating the New Era of Health Data Privacy: A Closer Look at Recent Developments
In today's digital age, consumer personal data is more valuable than ever before, and its protection has become a paramount concern. With privacy regulations putting restrictions on targeting audiences based on Sensitive Personal Information (SPI) such as ethnicity and sexual orientation, the landscape is rapidly evolving. One significant type of data that demands attention is health data. Typically protected by HIPAA, health data now faces additional safeguards, especially with states requiring opt-in for Sensitive Personal Information (SPI), which can include specific health data. While most have heard about the "Washington My Health My Data Act" (MHMD), other states are passing bills, including Nevada and Connecticut.

2022 data privacy predictions
In 2021, the private sector got serious about data privacy, led by Big Tech gatekeepers such as Google and Apple, who are making it harder for businesses to track consumers without their consent on desktop and mobile.

Here are five privacy predictions to keep an eye on in 2022. It would be in your best interest to determine how you and your company are affected.

CONSENT FOR DATA IS LIKE MILK
As concerns about data privacy have risen, vendors have propagated the misconception that first-party data is the key to privacy-first marketing. The emphasis on first-party data is the wrong way to think about data privacy. Instead of focusing on the differences among first-, second-, and third-party data, marketers should be asking themselves whether the consumer data they are using was collected with clear and affirmative consent.
