Created in Rio de Janeiro in the late 70s, Rede D'Or currently has more than 50 hospitals and 40 cancer clinics, making it the largest private hospital group in the country. With more than 87 thousand doctors, 51 thousand employees and more than 4 million emergency care services annually, the hospital group is a reference in cancer diagnosis and treatment in Latin America.

As with all companies that handle large volumes of personal data, Rede D'Or immediately sought to adapt its processes to ensure the privacy of patients, families and employees. The LGPD, already in force in Brazil, is a strategic and priority project in several hospitals precisely because of the high treatment of sensitive data and data sharing with several third-party companies, which increases the risk of leaks and misuse of personal data.

"The project was implemented quickly and effectively by Rede D'Or's technology and legal team with the support of the specialized technical support of Privacy Tools and in a short time the main modules were available and running in the company." says Ariel Dascal, the group's CDO.

With Privacy Tools' solution for LGPD, the group now has the various features of the tool to adapt the company to the LGPD. The Brazilian startup's platform has been used to carry out the mapping and flows of personal data, management of patient consent, service to holders, management of cookies and policies in all the group's portals.

According to the CEO of Privacy Tools, Aline Deparis: "It is possible for a company to start and already have results in a few days, but it is very important that the LGPD is seen as an asset for the organization as all processes involving data processing personal needs to be revisited. Our tool is essential for companies but it alone will not make the company adequate, it is necessary the involvement and dedication of all teams in this journey for privacy."
