Concepts

The following section gives you an overview of how you can manage data with the Data4Life Personal Health Data Platform (PHDP).

Encrypting and decrypting your data

The Data4Life SDK automatically handles data encryption. The Data4Life Personal Health Data Platform uses the privacy by design approach, optimizing for the strictest possible privacy-preserving settings. Only you have access to the data which your application sends to the platform.

Client-side encryption lays in the hands of the integrator application, so you must use a proper storage.

Provide local data storage

Data4Life doesn’t offer any client-side data storage solution. You can use the following:

  • Realm as an encrypted database

  • SQLCipher encryption for SQL databases
