| 17 | +Under [Article L.1111-8 of the French Public Health Code](https://www.legifrance.gouv.fr/codes/article_lc/LEGIARTI000049571347), service providers hosting specific types of personal health information must obtain [Hébergeur de Données de Santé (HDS)](https://esante.gouv.fr/produits-services/hds) certification. Established by ASIP Santé, the French Digital Health Agency, HDS sets a framework to enhance the security and protection of PHI. Scaleway Object Storage enables the creation of dedicated buckets for storing health data in accordance with HDS regulatory requirements. |
