KONABIA
GDPR & consent

Follow-up, yes. With every patient's consent in order.

Konabia records each patient's consent per channel (WhatsApp, email and SMS), honours every opt-out instantly and stores your clinic's data on servers in the European Union.

The usual risk

Messaging patients without control can be costly.

Lists without consent

Broadcast lists built from every contact on the phone, without knowing who agreed to receive messages.

Opt-outs noted on paper

Someone asks you to stop messaging them… and the next campaign reaches them anyway.

Fear of a complaint

A complaint to the data protection authority can cost far more than any campaign.

How it works

Consent, checked on every send.

  1. 01

    Consent per channel

    Each profile records whether the patient accepts messages via WhatsApp, email and SMS, separately.

  2. 02

    Every send checks it

    Campaigns and messages only go to patients with consent on that channel.

  3. 03

    Automatic opt-out

    If a patient opts out, they stop receiving messages on that channel instantly.

  4. 04

    Data in the EU

    Your clinic's and your patients' data are stored on servers in the European Union.

Three channels

Each channel, with its own consent.

A patient can accept WhatsApp but not email, or the other way round. Konabia respects it channel by channel.

WhatsApp

Via the official WhatsApp Business API, with Meta-approved templates for messages outside the 24-hour window.

Email

Campaigns and communications only to those who agreed to receive them by email.

SMS

The same control: no SMS consent, no SMS.

Shared responsibility

Konabia gives you the tools. You decide how to use them.

FAQ

Questions about GDPR and consent

Does Konabia make me GDPR compliant? +

Konabia gives you tools to do it right: consent per channel, sending only to those with consent, automatic opt-outs and data hosted in the EU. Responsibility for your patients' data remains with your clinic, so we recommend reviewing your legal texts with your adviser.

Where is the data stored? +

On servers in the European Union.

What happens if a patient opts out? +

They stop receiving messages on that channel instantly, without anyone having to note it down manually.

Can I send a campaign to my whole patient base? +

It will only reach patients with marketing consent on the channel you choose. Those without it won't receive it.

Is consent the same for every channel? +

No. It's stored separately for WhatsApp, email and SMS, because a patient may accept one and decline another.
