We act at two levels:

* ''bottom-up'', offering tooling to act on these data ecosystems, anchored in individual legal rights.
 
 
We also aim as much as possible to integrate the two levels: individuals exercising their rights should be informed by the latest research on the data ecosystems, and should be able to contribute back their expertise.

Welcome to PersonalData.IO,

  What we do!
We have all lost control over our personal data, yet we have no space where we can collectively reclaim it. We want to encourage collaborative dynamics between the general public and within civil society in all of its diversity (activists, researchers, educators, etc). These dynamics materialize around information about the personal data ecosystem, as well as cutting edge tools to respond to current practices and shape the future of the personal data economy.

  Campaigns
We encourage individuals to exercise their data rights, particularly when we think collective exercise of those rights would be transformative. For this reason we launch more focused campaigns. We also produce visualisations, as they are useful for aligning a large group of individuals with disjoint expertise.

  Data rights
Subject Access Requests are requests for access to your personal data. Usually you get data that you can contribute back to our maps! Here is a Youtube video explaining the process

  News
* 2019-05-24: Paul just attended a workshop at Sophia-Antipolis.

  About us
We are a small Geneva nonprofit focused on data protection. We want to empower an agile civil society to respond to threats associated with personal data. You can find more info about us here.
