The South African Constitution advocates the protection of personal information. Everyone has the right to privacy. This includes the protection of special information that relates to an individual’s biometrics, health, religion, or sex life, to name a few. This special information may be processed if it is necessary in law; if it is being processed for historical purposes; or if it has already been disseminated in public by the data subject If the aforementioned conditions are not met, the processing of special information is prohibited, unless the data subject has provided consent. Given that health information is regarded as special information, consent must be obtained from the data subject before it is processed. If the special information is accessed by unauthorised parties it may influence decisions about the data subject’s employment, access to credit, and education, and may even cause reputational or personal harm. This research proposes an e-consent management approach which preserves the privacy of health information. The utilisation of privacy laws and guidelines such as, but not limited to, the Protection of Personal Information Act and the General Data Protection Regulation are used to develop a privacy preserving e-consent model, architectural design and prototype.
