Legal Support for Health Data and AI
Health data now moves through apps, vendors, cloud platforms and AI models, and each step carries its own rules. Global Link Law advises healthcare and health technology companies on how that data can be collected, used, shared and protected, and on how to put AI into products and operations without creating exposure the business did not plan for. We cover HIPAA, state privacy laws, data use terms and the fast-moving rules on AI, in one engagement and under one privilege.
Data questions rarely arrive alone. Our team works alongside our Digital Health & Technology, Regulatory & Compliance and International Market Entry practices, so product, compliance and market questions are answered together.
Legal Challenges in Data, Privacy & AI
Data Rights You Did Not Mean to Give Away
Pilot agreements, vendor terms and platform contracts often grant broader data rights than the business intended, and the gap shows up in diligence.
Data Terms Built for Your Business
We review and negotiate data use, licensing and business associate terms so you keep the rights your model depends on.
Privacy Rules That Change State by State
A product that is compliant in one state can fall short in the next, as new consumer health data and privacy laws take effect.
One Privacy Program for Every Market
We map the federal and state rules that reach your data and build one program that meets them, HIPAA included.
AI Adopted Faster Than It Is Governed
Teams are using AI tools and building AI features before anyone has decided what data they may use, who reviews the output and how decisions are documented.
AI Governance That Fits How You Work
Policies, review steps and vendor terms that let AI projects move forward with clear accountability.
No Plan for the Day Something Goes Wrong
A breach or complaint is the worst time to work out who decides, who is notified and what the contracts require.
Breach Readiness Before You Need It
Incident response plans, notification playbooks and tabletop exercises, with counsel ready when an incident happens.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Privacy Laws Apply to Health Data?
Many health technology companies are not covered by HIPAA at all, yet still hold sensitive health data. State consumer health data laws, general state privacy laws and federal consumer protection rules can apply instead. Global Link Law maps which rules reach your data and builds a program that meets them.
How Should a Healthcare Company Govern Its Use of AI?
Start with a written policy on which tools may be used, what data they may see and who reviews the output. Then review vendor terms for data rights and security, and keep records of how AI supports decisions. Global Link Law helps set this up in a way that fits how your teams already work.
What Should Data Terms Cover in a Vendor or Partner Agreement?
Who owns the data and any outputs, what the other party may do with it, security and breach duties, and what happens to the data when the agreement ends. For health data, business associate terms may also be required.
Does Global Link Law Work with Companies Based Outside the United States?
Yes. Global Link Law advises international health technology companies entering the U.S. market on the privacy and data rules they must meet, alongside its International Market Entry practice.
