摘要

隐私是乳腺癌患者最关心的问题。当患者使用移动健康应用程序(移动健康应用程序)时，许多敏感数据由应用程序开发人员处理。通用数据保护条例(GDPR)的出现是为了解决隐私问题。在本文中，我们分析了乳腺癌患者移动健康应用程序样本的隐私政策，开发了一个量表来检查是否遵守GDPR。尽管隐私是采用移动健康应用程序的一个关键因素，但所分析的应用程序对GDPR的低遵守程度相当令人惊讶。因此，应用程序开发人员必须关注这个问题。

Privacy in Mobile Health Applications for Breast Cancer Patients

Privacy is a major concern for breast cancer patients. When patients use mobile health applications (mHealth apps), many sensitive data are handled by the application developers. General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) arises as a solution to privacy issues. In this paper, we analyze the privacy policy of a sample of mHealth apps for breast cancer patients, developing a scale to check if GDPR is complied. Despite privacy is a key factor in the adoption of the use of mHealth apps, the low level of compliance with the GDPR of the analyzed applications was quite surprising. Thus, application developers must be concerned about this matter.
