>>68871957>or some form of itAPPI. It didn't use to cover medical information, but that got added in a revision a few years back after a bunch of huge data breaches leaked a lot of sensitive information. Business owners are required to have the consent of the person whose information they're trying to access grant access to said information but Japanese facilities are not immune to conveniently ignoring legal updates. See, for example: the scandal right at the end of last year where a group home that housed disabled people telling residents that they had to be sterilized in order to receive services, which would be in line with the "Eugenic Protection Law", which mandated doctors to non-consesually sterilize disable people or people with a history of hereditary diseases. The Eugenic Protection Law has been off the books for almost 20 goddamn years.
So really, who fuckin knows if they're operating in line with the law. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
