Article L1221-7 of the French Public Health Code

The recipient cannot know the identity of the donor, nor can the donor know the identity of the recipient. No information that could identify both the donor and the recipient may be divulged.

This principle of anonymity may only be waived in cases of therapeutic necessity.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article L1221-7

Le receveur ne peut connaître l’identité du donneur, ni le donneur celle du receveur. Aucune information permettant d’identifier à la fois celui qui a fait don de son sang et celui qui l’a reçu ne peut être divulguée.

Il ne peut être dérogé à ce principe d’anonymat qu’en cas de nécessité thérapeutique.
