DHA Compliance

Dubai Health Authority Regulatory Compliance

Last Updated: April 20, 2026

Overview

LogicLoop operates in full compliance with Dubai Health Authority (DHA) regulations, UAE Federal Decree-Law No. 45 of 2021 (PDPL), and the NABIDH Data Privacy Framework. This page outlines how we meet each regulatory requirement.

DHA Health Data Quality Policy

Effective November 1, 2023, DHA mandates strict standards for health data accuracy, completeness, security, and retention. LogicLoop complies by:

  • Storing all patient data exclusively within the UAE
  • Retaining patient communication logs for 25 years per DHA mandate
  • Maintaining consent records for the full retention period
  • Implementing AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit
  • Conducting regular data quality audits

NABIDH Framework

LogicLoop's data handling — encryption, UAE residency, access controls, and retention — is designed to be NABIDH-compatible. LogicLoop does not connect to NABIDH directly; clinics maintain their own NABIDH registration. We require proof of active NABIDH registration (where applicable) before onboarding.

Patient Data Protection

What We Process

  • Patient first name, WhatsApp number, appointment details
  • Message delivery status and engagement data

What We Never Process

Consent Requirements

Clinics using LogicLoop must obtain explicit, documented patient consent before adding any patient to a workflow. Required consent elements include:

  • Clear identification of the clinic as data controller

  • Specific description of communication types
  • WhatsApp as the communication channel
  • Right to withdraw consent at any time
  • Active opt-in checkbox (unchecked by default)
  • Separate consent for utility vs. marketing messages

WhatsApp Business API Compliance

All message templates are pre-approved by Meta, contain only logistics information, do not contain medical advice, include opt-out instructions, and are sent only to patients who have provided explicit consent.

Data Breach Protocol

  • Investigation and containment within 24 hours
  • Initial notification to affected clinics within 24 hours
  • Full notification within 72 hours
  • UAE Data Office and DHA notified as required by law
  • Clinics provided with all information needed for patient notification

Security Infrastructure

  • AES-256 encryption at rest
  • TLS 1.3 encryption in transit
  • Role-based access control (RBAC)
  • Multi-factor authentication for all staff
  • Regular penetration testing and vulnerability scanning
  • Annual staff data protection training
  • Data Protection Officer (DPO) appointed

Important Limitation

LogicLoop is a communication and workflow platform. We do not provide medical advice, clinical services, or telehealth. All clinical decisions remain with DHA-licensed healthcare professionals.
