1 minute task
What
Nobi requires the resident’s informed consent to process personal data. Without informed consent, no personal data is processed and smart monitoring features—such as fall detection and live views—remain inactive.
Why
Personal data belongs to the resident. Processing this data without their permission is not only against the law but also against Nobi’s values of privacy and dignity.
By confirming consent, you:
- Respect the resident’s privacy rights.
- Comply with GDPR and privacy laws.
- Keep Nobi’s smart features working, like fall detection and live views.
- Protect residents who may have cognitive difficulties from unwanted monitoring.
- Ensure transparency about how images and data are used.
- Give residents or their families control over their own data.
- Avoid legal risks for your care organisation.
The resident—or their legal representative—has the right to withdraw this consent at any time.
