For professionals bound by confidentiality
AI for professionals bound by confidentiality: secure by design.
Doctors, lawyers, tax advisors and other professions bound by secrecy may use AI, if the provider meets the requirements of Section 203 of the German Criminal Code. innoGPT is built exactly for that: EU hosting, no model training and contracts that protect your duty of confidentiality.

Professional secrecy
Who Section 203 applies to.
The catalogue in Section 203 (1) of the German Criminal Code covers far more professions than just doctors and lawyers. Anyone listed here commits a criminal offence when disclosing entrusted secrets without authorisation.
Doctors & health professions
Physicians, dentists, pharmacists, psychotherapists and members of other state-regulated health professions.
Lawyers & notaries
Attorneys, patent attorneys, notaries and defence counsel. The duty of secrecy extends to office staff.
Tax advisors & auditors
Tax advisors, tax agents, auditors and sworn accountants.
Psychologists & counselling services
Professional psychologists as well as recognised marriage, family, youth and addiction counsellors.
Social work
State-recognised social workers and social pedagogues.
Private insurers
Members of private health, accident and life insurance companies and private medical billing services.
The legal situation
What Section 203 regulates.
Four points every professional bound by secrecy should know before deploying an AI tool.
What is protected
Third-party secrets entrusted or made known in a professional context: patient data, client matters, tax records, insurance data.
The penalty
Unauthorised disclosure is punishable by up to one year of imprisonment or a fine. Up to two years when acting for payment or with intent to enrich.
The opening (para. 3)
Since the 2017 reform, "other contributing persons", such as IT, cloud and AI service providers, may be involved insofar as necessary for their services.
The duty (para. 4)
The professional must bind the contributing person to confidentiality. Failing to do so, if a secret is then disclosed, is itself a criminal offence.
Don't forget professional codes
Beyond Section 203, additional rules apply depending on the profession: Section 43e of the Federal Lawyers' Act (BRAO), Section 62a of the Tax Consultancy Act (StBerG) and medical professional law. At their core they demand the same things: careful selection of the service provider, a confidentiality commitment and a clear contractual basis.
Shadow AI
The real risk is shadow AI.
Your team is already using AI. The only question is whether it happens in a controlled way or not.
Private AI accounts at work
Employees paste client or patient data into private AI accounts. Protected secrets end up on servers entirely outside your responsibility.
Disclosure under Section 203
Simply entering protected data into an unsecured AI tool can constitute unauthorised disclosure, punishable by up to one year of imprisonment or a fine.
Bans don't solve the problem
If you only ban AI, you lose twice: usage moves into the shadows, and the productivity gains pass your practice, firm or company by.

AI for professionals bound by secrecy: deploy securely instead of banning
Few professions benefit from AI as much as those bound by secrecy, and few carry a higher risk when choosing the wrong tool. Medical letters, legal briefs, tax filings and expert reports consist of exactly the data Section 203 of the German Criminal Code protects. The answer is not to avoid AI, but to pick a platform built for confidential professions from the ground up.
Professional secrecy and AI are not mutually exclusive
The duty of secrecy has coexisted with external service providers for decades, from document shredding to practice management systems. The legislator settled this explicitly in 2017: Section 203 (3) allows involving "other contributing persons" if their services are necessary and they are bound to confidentiality. The same standard applies to AI platforms. What matters is not whether you use AI, but which provider you choose and what the contract says.
What to look for when choosing an AI platform
Four questions separate suitable providers from unsuitable ones: Where is the data processed: does it stay in the EU? Are inputs used to train AI models? Is there a genuine confidentiality agreement under Section 203 (4) in addition to the DPA under Art. 28 GDPR? And can you control who in your organisation accesses which data and models? innoGPT answers all four with yes: EU hosting in Frankfurt am Main, a contractual commitment not to train on your data, a confidentiality commitment as contributing person, and role-based access control.
From uncontrolled one-offs to a secure standard
In many practices, firms and consultancies AI is already in use, just privately and without control. The secure path is a structured rollout: one approved platform for everyone, clear rules, short trainings and measurable results. That is exactly what innoGPT supports, with personal guidance from introduction to daily use. Shadow AI becomes enterprise AI that respects professional secrecy.
