Tracing movements of people by using electronic communications tools and features

On the basis of already reported contact details of the infected person, an operator of the Public Health Authority will carry out a call with an infected person and will ask for an explicit consent to obtain localization data. In case of disagreement, communication will be stopped. In case of the consent given, a provider of telecommunication service will be requested to provide the localization data of the identified infected person. During the conversation with the infected person, an operator of the Public Health Authority will request a list of persons with whom he/she has been in contact in the past 14 days, and, if necessary, it will use localization data to help to remind the infected person´s past track. The contacts collected during the conversation with an operator will be contacted. The data of already contacted infected persons will be deleted and anonymized after the end of the interview, but no later than within 24 hours.
