Processing children’s health data in hobby activities

Based on the initial survey of the GDPR4CHLDRN – ensuring data protection in hobbies project, people have questions about the processing of children’s health data, especially data on allergies, in hobby activities. This article is meant to provide some guidelines for the appropriate processing of children’s health data in hobby activities.

Many organisations are working to improve children’s awareness of personal data processing and data protection legislation. For this GDPR4CHLDRN blog post, we compiled some useful websites we have come across during the project. These sites offer teaching, guidance and independent study materials for promoting data protection awareness in children and young people.

Parents supporting the data protection of children and young people – initial survey charted competence, concerns and attitudes

The initial survey for the GDPR4CHLDRN – Ensuring data protection in hobbies project was carried out in November and December 2022. The survey charted the data protection competence and attitudes to personal data processing of children and young people aged 13–17, their parents and the clubs and associations that organise leisure and hobby activities. The survey also sought to identify the data protection issues for which the target groups especially wanted support from the project.
