TL;DR: Medical institutions are subject to the strictest GDPR requirements, making popular US POSKAI AI platforms often unsuitable due to data transfer outside the EU. POSKAI is the only AI voice platform in Lithuania offering 100% EU data residency, per-client isolation, and encrypted patient communication, starting from €500/month.
Is your clinic's data safe when POSKAI AI calls?
Leaders of Lithuanian clinics, dental offices, and family medicine centers today face a serious challenge. On the one hand, administration is burdened by thousands of repetitive calls — appointment registrations, reminders, prescription renewals. On the other hand, the use of POSKAI AI tools in healthcare poses a huge risk to patient data security.
Clinics handle the most sensitive information: personal identification numbers, medical histories, diagnoses, and test results. If this data were to leak, the consequences would be catastrophic not only for patients but also for the institution itself. Therefore, before implementing any POSKAI AI assistant, it is imperative to ask a fundamental question: where is your patient data physically stored, and who has access to it?
Many POSKAI AI platforms on the market operate on a "shared SaaS" principle. This means that your patients' phone numbers and call recordings reside in the same database along with the data of hundreds of other companies' clients.
What are the GDPR Fines for Clinics and Why are US Platforms Risky?
Health data under GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is classified as a special category of personal data. This means that much stricter protection requirements apply to it than to ordinary information.
- Huge Fines: For GDPR violations, especially those related to health data, institutions face fines of up to 20 million euros or up to 4% of annual global turnover.
- Legal Responsibility: Full legal responsibility for data security falls on the clinic's management, not on the technology provider.
- Reputation Collapse: Data breaches irrevocably destroy patient trust in the medical institution.
The majority of popular POSKAI AI voice assistants (e.g., Bland, Retell, Synthflow) are developed in the USA. Their servers are located in the United States, so every call from your patient travels outside the European Union. This is a direct GDPR violation unless you have extremely complex and expensive legal agreements with patients allowing such data transfer. Furthermore, under the "CLOUD Act," US authorities can demand access to this data.

How POSKAI Ensures Absolute Patient Data Security?
POSKAI was developed with the understanding that data security for business is not a "nice to have" — it is a mandatory requirement. Clinics that use POSKAI AI for patient service, appointment registration, and reminders receive the highest level of data protection on the market.
1. Per-client Isolation
This is a fundamental architectural difference of POSKAI. We do not store all client data in one place. Your clinic receives a completely isolated infrastructure. Your patient data, call transcripts, calendar integrations, and recordings NEVER intersect with any other client's data. Even if an incident theoretically occurred in another client's system, your clinic's data remains untouched.
2. Encrypted Patient Communication
Every call made through the POSKAI voice engine is encrypted (End-to-End encryption). Access to call recordings and reports is only possible through a secure, Custom Dashboard assigned to your clinic. You fully control your data and can export or delete it at any time.
3. European Union Data Residency
All POSKAI servers and data centers are physically located in the territory of the European Union. We do not send your patients' voice or personal information to third parties. This guarantees full compliance with GDPR requirements and the EU Artificial Intelligence Act. Furthermore, we assume responsibility as your data processor by signing strict data processing agreements (DPAs).
4. Protection Against Manipulation (Prompt Injection Protection)
POSKAI technology uses advanced protection algorithms that ensure the POSKAI AI assistant cannot be tricked or provoked into revealing confidential information about the clinic, other patients, or doctors' schedules.
