GDPR for Pharmacy Contractors in England & Wales

Positive Solutions has worked closely with all pharmacy stakeholders including PSNC and NHS Digital to ensure its pharmacy systems and solutions are fully compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) that came into effect on 25th May 2018.

Positive Solutions operates to high standards of data privacy and security in accordance with ISO27001 and ISO9001, for which it is certified.

In view of the above and in relation to the products and services provided by Positive Solutions Ltd to pharmacies we confirm we will:

  • Only act on written instructions from the controller
  • Ensure that people processing the data are subject to a duty of confidence
  • Take appropriate measures to ensure the security of processing
  • Only engage sub-processors with the prior consent of the controller and under a written contract
  • Assist the controller in meeting its GDPR obligations in relation to the security of processing the notification of personal data breaches and data protection impact assessments.
  • Delete or return all personal data to the controller as requested at the end of the contract
  • Submit to audits and inspections, provide the controller with whatever information it needs to ensure that they are both meeting their Article 28 obligations and tell the controller immediately if it is asked to do something infringing the GDPR or other data protection law of the EU or a member state.

Positive Solutions will continue to help pharmacy contractors interpret and comply with new regulations to support ongoing GDPR compliance. We will review any updates and determine any appropriate technical and organisational measures, should these become necessary.
