Is Notion HIPAA compliant?

Checked 6 Nov 2026 from 2 vendor sources

On some plans

Notion offers a free BAA only to Enterprise customers, accepted in workspace settings. So the answer depends on your plan. Check yours below before any patient data goes in.

Plans other than Enterprise (vendor says Enterprise is required)Not covered

What the BAA leaves out

  • Beta Services
  • Notion Mail and Notion Calendar are handled through Google Workspace HIPAA, not described under Notion’s BAA
  • Use for communicating with patients, plan members or their families or employers
  • PHI in workspace, teamspace or file names, profiles, group names or support requests

How to get the BAA

An Enterprise admin goes to Settings, Workspace settings, HIPAA compliance, Activate, and accepts the signed BAA.

What the vendor says to do

  • Activate under Settings, Workspace settings, HIPAA compliance and accept the BAA
  • Enforce SAML SSO only login
  • Use SCIM provisioning
  • Set session duration
  • Use Audit Log export and DLP connections
  • Disable public sharing, guests, moving pages to other workspaces, export and workspace creation
  • Restrict third-party extensions and review previously enabled integrations
  • Configure Trash retention

Proof from the vendor

This isn’t legal advice. A BAA is one requirement. Your clinic still has to set the tool up correctly and control who has access. Vendors change their terms, so confirm with the vendor before you sign. PHI means protected health information, which includes patient data.
