Our Vision
A world where every citizen’s personal data is truly personal and secure — and can be responsibly shared to create knowledge, innovation, and public value.
Our Promise
DATA for GOOD enables secure, consent-based collaboration that gives citizens control while allowing organisations to generate value in a transparent and ethical framework.
How We Work
The DATA for GOOD Foundation builds trusted data infrastructures and partnerships that empower individuals, researchers, and organisations to share data securely and responsibly. Together with our partners:
We enable citizens to control their personal data through consent-based, privacy-preserving technology.
We bridge public, private, and research partners to co-create responsible data projects across sectors.
We turn secure data collaboration into insights that benefit individuals, organisations, and society.
We promote transparent, ethical data governance grounded in consent, accountability, and trust.
Through this cross-sector model, we’re building the blueprint for a more trustworthy digital future. Our work proves that privacy and progress can coexist.
When data is used responsibly, everyone wins.
Our Core Principles
Our mission is guided by a simple belief: data should serve people, not the other way around.
Transparency — Data use must be open, explainable, and accountable.
Consent — Individuals must always retain control over how their personal data is used.
Trust — Every process and partnership must protect privacy, integrity, and reliability.
Collaboration — Co-creation across sectors enables stronger, fairer, and more responsible outcomes.
Community & Democracy — Data should support the public good and strengthen societal decision-making, not just private interests.
These principles guide every partnership and policy we build, and are reflected in our independence, objectivity, and commitment to high ethical standards.
Mission in Action
Our mission comes to life through real-world projects and collaborations that demonstrate ethical innovation at scale.
