CNIL examines draft deliberation authorizing BIG DATA SANTE to process personal data for anonymized medical research (ONCOVAL)

During its plenary session on 8 October 2026, the CNIL will consider a draft deliberation that would permit BIG DATA SANTE (Octopize Mimethik Data) to carry out automated processing of personal data to create anonymised datasets for medical research, called ONCOVAL. The proposal is examined under the CNIL’s internal procedures before any approval.

Why it matters: If approved, the authorization would enable a French company to process health‑related personal data for research, shaping data‑privacy practices in the health sector.
