Data importing and exporting
- Data export approach
-
End users (patients) retain control over their personal data. Tiny Medical Apps acts as a data processor for the delivery of the service, with data controller responsibilities varying by function and commissioning context. For example, NHS England acts as Data Controller for medicines-related services enabled through NHS Login.
Commissioners are provided with anonymised and aggregated service-usage data for assurance, evaluation and reporting purposes.
Users can export a copy of their personal data at any time via an in-app request. This is an automated process that provides a time-limited, secure link to a password-protected folder containing the user’s data. - Data export formats

Availability and resilience
- Guaranteed availability
-
A Financial Credit is available where in a given calendar month service availability falls between
1. 99% and 99.99% - at 10% of monthly service costs.
2. Below 99% - at 25% of monthly service costs. - Approach to resilience
-
The resilience of the Digital Health Passport is underpinned by it's deployment on Cloud Run, a core component of Google Cloud Platform.
This leverages several features designed to ensure robust resilience:
Fully Managed Infrastructure: Cloud Run provides a managed environment where Google handles all infrastructure maintenance, including servers and networking equipment. Regular updates and patches are applied swiftly to mitigate vulnerabilities, ensuring consistent service availability.
Automatic Scaling: Cloud Run's dynamic scaling capability adjusts resource allocation in real time based on incoming traffic. This feature efficiently manages demand spikes and minimizes resources during lower traffic periods, optimizing performance and cost-effectiveness without sacrificing service quality.
Containerization: Using Docker container technology, Cloud Run ensures the Digital Health Passport operates in a controlled setting. This approach encapsulates the application and its dependencies, minimizing potential discrepancies and conflicts from diverse operational environments.
Monitoring and Alerts: Comprehensive monitoring tools on Cloud Run track resource usage and system health. Real-time insights and automated alerts identify and address issues promptly, ensuring continuous service availability and reliability.
These features collectively enhance the resilience of the Digital Health Passport, maintaining its reliability, security, and continuous availability. - Outage reporting
-
The Digital Heath Passport service is closely monitored in several ways.
Betterstack provides sophisticated API monitoring linked to email, slack and phone.
GCP Cloud Monitoring has alerts when resource usage passes defined thresholds.

TMA Quality Management System is compliant to ISO 13485 (quality management systems of medical devices), ISO 14971 (risk management of medical devices) and DCB0129 (clinical safety risk management of health IT).
All 3 standards have an element of change control as part of the quality and risk management process. The procedure in the TMA QMS which governs change control is TMA-SOP-D009 (Control of Software Design Changes). Change control is a Gateway 1 activity in the TMA software development lifecycle, where proposed changes are assessed for impact to regulations and safety/security risk to determine the validation required prior to release. - Vulnerability management type
