Abstract

Processing personal data by means of an app, such as the Allergy Diary App, is under the Directive 95/46/EC [12] and Directive 2002/58/EC [15] as amended by the Directive 2009/136/EC [16]. Since May 2018, the situation has become more stringent as the General European Data Protection Regulation now applies and all general national provisions on processing personal data are being overruled by European Law. Geolocation was optional, the user could allow it or not on his/her mobile phone and it could remove it at any time. [...]geolocation was not used in the data mining process and the phone IP was not recorded. [...]the two methods were tested on the users having declared only one day of VAS. [...]interference (induction of sensitive information on any user) is impossible.
